Bye Bye 2014, hello New Year!

I'm not a big fan of New Year's resolutions but all the same, I've decided that one of mine will be to jot down some of the thoughts running through my head onto this blog.

The holidays were such a blur!  I took some much needed time in December to spend with my family and tried oh so hard to pry myself away from the sewing machine, though I did manage to create a few things and I'd love to share one with you.

Meet Piper.


She's the latest of my ever evolving jointed baby pattern.  In the past I've normally made smaller babies but decided to try my hand at ones that are a little bigger.  I'm constantly tweaking patterns and she was no exception.


Piper is about 13" long though seems a bit bigger as her legs are curled up.  She's such a great size for snuggles.  Not too big and overwhelming for kids but big enough that you can easily dress her.  My youngest daughter fell in love hard with this one, it took all of my might not to hand her over but I have a feeling I'll be making another for her birthday.  :)


I'm hoping to have a similar sized doll made for the beginning of February so if you have any suggestions for me on coloring, please comment below and let me know!  Thanks for stopping by and please wish Piper safe travels!  - Kristy
