Christmas Sweaters for my little Wellie Wishers

Had so much fun making these little sweaters and hats!
Made with Paton's Lace yarn and they are so soft to the touch!

I modified this pattern   http://www.pixiefaire.com/products/classic-sweater-crochet-pattern
to fit the Wellie Wishers doll and added long sleeves.  Took off the ribbing and made the back the front.  The little poinsettias are hand embroidered and embellished with seed beads and pearls.

I used Vanna's Glamour yarn on this set. 
The hat and ear muff are my own patterns

How much is that doggie in the window!

  When I found this doggie fabric I fell in love....and the little embroidered doggie with his basket of flowers just went perfectly!

My little Wellie Wisher Camille loved it too!

Her little peek A Boo shoes completed the look!

Ready for a walk on the Boardwalk!

Since I live at the beach it came natural for me to design something for my girls to wear strolling in the evening on the boardwalk.
Doesn't Caroline look adorable in her denim capris and embroidered tank top!


I love embellishing my doll clothes with my Janome 12000 embroidery machine!


Lea decided to wear her white denim outfit too!


Blessings,
Gloria

Samantha's New Summer Dress


Samantha is my first American Girl Doll.  Who would have know that I would be playing with dolls at my age LOL!  I made this darling little dress from a pattern from Simplicity with a few miner changes.


The bodice has machined embroidered daisies and the skirt hem has delicate eyelet lace.  A pretty little peter pan collar is just the right finishing touch.
