Welcome to my blog
If you enjoy finding a lot of different outlets for your creativity, then we may just be kindred spirits.
This blog is an outlet for my interest in miniatures, crochet, plastic canvas, and many other various arts and crafts.
I also love walking, taking digital photos, and most recently, have rediscovered an old love...bike riding! I purchased an amazing new bike, a comfy Townie by Electra this summer, and have been having a grand time exploring the area as though for the first time. It's like being a kid again!
If you enjoy any of these things too, pour a cup of coffee and tea, sit down, and join me.

Crocheted doll with moveable head
This adorable little girl was made following the talented Beth Webber's Simply Amis pattern. She is Mignonette, the little sister. The pattern can be found her at Beth's website: By Hook, by Hand
The pattern is extremely well done and nicely detailed. The neck is long and thin and is inserted into the head and sewn in a way that allows the head to turn. It's a great feature. The little button nose, bum and belly button add to the cuteness factor of this doll.
The dress pattern can also be found on Beth's website. I modified it so the skirt is shorter than in the pattern. I also just did one row of the sleeves so she has capped sleeves, and added a flower, which I apparently didn't sew on tightly enough as it moves about.
Her wig was made by crocheting a cap in the wig color, sewing it on to the head, and crocheting individual strands into every second stitch. Next time I will do every third or 4th stitch because the hair is too full.
I used baby hair clips to clip her hair back, but it also looks cute down.
I'm going to crochet a flower for her to hold, then she'll be ready to give to my Aunt as a cheery little gift.
