Lady in Waiting
21 July 2010 | by Jen in Art, Sewing
Hot weather + hectic weeks have made making friends for Lucy a wee bit difficult but not impossible; luckily dolls are very patient. But I suppose you have no choice when you don’t have arms or a painted-in face. Oh, and your little midi collar (or shawl, I can’t decide) is missing.
SPEAKING OF SHAWLS, I plan to make at least one chicken shawl for my friend Kara’s new chickens!! I’m head over heels excited for her and even a little envious because how could you not want your very own chickens?
Have a good Wednesday, dears!




She is sure to be very cut. What type of yarn did you use for her hair? And a chicken shawl? I love it!
Wow, looking at this doll in it’s unfinished state just gave me a great idea. Thank you!
What a sweet little lady! She looks adorable! Looks like you’re having fun with your sewing! ♥
thank you!
@ lsaspacey: ok, now i’m curious!
are you going to share your fabulous idea (on your blog)? i’d love to hear about it!
@ Amy: It’s Rowan Kid Silk Haze, the same as for Lucy’s hair. It’s fun to play with.
BEST. HAIR. EVER. So cute!
xo!
YES! YES! YES! It does get chilly in the evenings here!
Poor little dolly. I’m sure when you are finished with it, she will be so darn cute. I have an almost done dress that needs buttons, and I can’t seem to get it done, too many things thrown in the mix this week, so I hear ya!
I have to meet with my hope-to-be partners-in-crime first. They are 10, 7, and almost 3 years old and have incredibly busy summer schedules. Hint: It will be a stuffie/dolly of some sort. What I needed was a new shape.
@ lsaspacey -
keep us posted!
