This piece is equal parts "this went right" and "that went wrong". On to prototype #3.

I added some embroidery to the bones on the light green and coral doll arms and legs. The reason I don't edge these bones in a similar way as the skull faces, is because when stuffed, the edging stitches (stem stitch) will begin to pull away from the edge of the white bone. I don't like how it looks. So, I do something that's in the same colour, but in a different place, embroidery-wise.

I completed the remaining four sets of arms and legs for the Day of the Dead themed dolls. Yay!

I've finished this little doll yesterday. She's been given a name too! Gwen! There are a few small, fiddly things I want to do yet. Gwen won't be going into my shop. I don't think my heart could handle her languishing, unsold in my shop right now.

I worked on some small details on Betsy and Polly yesterday. Teensie bows for both. Then a tiny hat with embroidery and a collar for Polly. I'm almost done with the jar and lid cloches as well.

I got so much work done yesterday! I even got to start the bows for Willow and Aster too! Once I finish the sequin work, I can sew the bows together, take picture and add them to my shop tomorrow!

I finished the stitch work on both Juniper and Aster yesterday. I also got their paws stitched on. I'm on track for having them in my Tuesday shop update!

I couldn't decide between making a light blue or an light orchid coloured bunny. So I decided to make both. They have names too! The blue bunny is Juniper, and the orchid bunny is Aster!

I made some major adjustments to this new bunny pattern prototype. I have a few more tweaks to make in the third, and hopefully, final prototype in wool. I wired the ears so they can be posed too.

The wings are finished and I loved on to the feet last night. I am so ready to work on the new bunny pattern that I've been planning. So. Ready.

I got the beaks and bills created and attached to the heads. Then I got all the bodies together. My orders of wool felt and sequins came early (YAY!) so I can also start planning bows and decorations for each.

With this third and final prototype, the chick pattern is a go! The chicka i offer in my shop will have some embroidered elements on them. Now I can start making a few of them for my online shop!
