New dresses for Anne Lise

Made a dress out of my old shirt.Think it came out very well.

Earlier I`ve also crocheted a a dress for the same doll.

Nora #2 from Sandvika dollfactory

This little sweetie travelled all the way from Finland to Norway. A Norwegian made doll.
She is a little bit dirty, but she is going to have a real doll bath, and be dressed up. She is in a very good condition.

Anne Lise #1

I could not just walk by this little darling. She was in desperate need of  help, in any way. I suppose some little girl almost had once loved her to death.

Startet to get rid of all her hair, and take out her eyes.

Eyes gone, and the bulk in her forehead is gone.

Sewed on new hair, and putted in some new eyes.

The hair was still too long, so I had to cut it some.

Here she is. So pretty. With a new look and a new dress.

I suppose she`s feeling a little bit more comfortable now?

I have also crocheted the dress for her.

Old toys from my childhood.

I was on holiday at my old homeplace. Found some old stuff I used to play with. A lot was missing, but there was still some of my old toys left. Well used and well played with.

Had to wash and clean all of it.

 A little bit of this and a little bit of that..

 Some well used wineglasses. I remember that it was 8 of theese glasses.

Coffee or teacups, missing most of the plates.

One cup and 3 plates left. Theese were bought as a set of four.

Some pots and kettles...

An old baby rattle, missing the handle

 Another plaything with 3 pearls in... none were thinking of the small parts when I grew up... you can open up this rattlething, and the pearls can be swallowed by a little child.

Theese figurines were made so we childeren could make our own drawings. 

 

Sweater

The Autumn is closing in, and the days will be colder. 

So what else could I do? I had to knit some sweaters for the dolls just so they will stay warm. Newly knitted and made in babywool. Some of the sweaters got one strand of glitter in the pattern. Like on this pink one, the glitter tread is on the black background colour.

Some of these are for sale, send me a message if you are interested.
