EASTER BONNETS

 New outfits for the dolls for Easter and small eggs for their tree have kept me busy here are the bonnets I made for their Easter outfits.

Joan had given me a large piece of fuchsia silk so I had plenty of fabric to work with,  Rosie has a dress to match her bonnet.

For Poppy I made a bonnet that matched the blue trim of her birthday dress……

St Patrick's day

When suggested that Rosie and Poppy have new dresses for St Patrick's day, the idea would fit well in the Year Book theme but there was nothing suitable in my fabric stash. the next week Fiona came in with two green fabrics and the result was these two dresses.  Next up will be April and Easter and that stitching is well under way but now I must pick up my much neglected embroidery.

Happy St Patrick's day to all 

Back grounds

 I have been playing with backgrounds, having found an app that can remove the background from a photo I can then add my own to create the scene I want, there becomes a problem when I have too many ideas and can’t decide which one to use.

 Here is an example, please help me which one do you like best.......

 I also had fun creating this one I wanted to include in the latest photo book the story of Poppy looking for a leprechaun    the photo I used was one taken when the family were in Ireland last year and is in County Clare.  it had the perfect spot for the leprechaun  to stand.

St Patrick's day is not far away and the dolls will be back then to show off their new dresses... green ones of course
