A Happy Little Bleuette!

Yeah! Finally a new spring dress for my little gal. Many Bleuette collectors dress their dolls in authenic clothes, but for me a dress is a dress and I enjoy creating my own styles. I have made a few of the real-deal, but so many patterns are in French and to make matters worse I have a very difficult time following a pattern. Except for the Edith Flack Ackley dolls, which I make, I never use a pattern for the other dolls I create, such as my Raggedy Ann dolls. So, tomorrow I will make her "sister" her new dress while this one dances around singing a happy little song!

(I included a photo of them two Spring-times ago"coloring Easter Eggs". There is something special about these little dolls, you can pose them so sweetly and they are fun to dress, except for their wobbly legs! If you love dolls they are a fun doll to collect.)

New Dresses?

I have promised my two little Bleuettes new dresses-for Christmas! Well, now I am saying for Easter and they are holding me to my word. While I was cleaning they were busy picking out fabric in the sewing room. So, today I will start making them each a new dress, but it will be a Springtime dress, something they can wear more often rather than a fancy dress. So, today I will be in my sewing nook making little dresses. . .with a promise to have the girls model them for you.

Wishing all a great Sunday!
