I have been inspired to make some new bedding for my Blythe dolls with some pillows that actually look soft enough to lie on
The pattern is available in my Etsy store and you can sell handmade items made from the pattern. It was really fun to do and very addictive – I have 3 more design themes in my head already.

Variation on a theme
I could say that I was experimenting with the daisy stitch pattern and came across this interesting variation of my A Handsomely Tweedy Hat pattern. But that would be lying. The truth is I forgot which row I was on and repeated myself. The results are good though.

On a recent visit I was seduced by a few balls of Debbie Bliss’s Donegal Luxury Tweed Aran yarn. (more…)
