You can’t tell by looking at him but he is into butterflies. There are little hints…
His vest, and his notebook…
And a little lapel pin.
And it’s a beautiful day to observe some butterflies!

The Mushroom Hunter
He is a shaggy dog and he loves to walk in the woods and hunt for mushrooms. Look! He found a BIG one!
He has a woolly vest under his corduroy jacket.
And here is what is in his foraging bag-
Brown Dog in a Puppy Dress
What a cutie!
How adorable is a pup in a pup dress.
I made her purse to match the dots that the dress dogs are wearing.
She is enjoying the beautiful fall that we are having here in Chicago!
A Dog for Autumn
I was going through my bins of wool and found this yellow Fair Isle sweater and had to use it. My red dog is perfectly cozy for fall weather. A note on her ears- I photograph the dolls lying flat. The ears go down a bit when upright as seen here-
She is cute either way!

*Trigger Warning- Infant Loss*
My niece lost her baby in August. The baby was delivered 8 weeks early because of medical complications. She lived for 36 hours. The whole family is so sad. I was able to feel like I was helping, even if just a little bit, when I made this baby for her.
She has a baby blanket too- just like the ones that I made for her siblings.
I had to wait for my package to get to Australia before I posted. This baby was finished at the end of August.
Curvy Mermaid with Icy Green Hair
This is the best mermaid because she is the only one who didn’t make me go back to the studio to remake her hair/face/embroidery after I photographed them- so hurray! Maybe I am somehow getting better? Also she is the last of the bunch.
And here is a close-up of the hair-
I might start something new but mostly I will be prepping for my teaching trip out to California. Always lots to do!
Another Green-tailed Mermaid
She has 3 star beads in her hair. I am trying out some new hair styles.
She has a dark peach skintone which turns out to want to go much lighter when I photograph it. That is why these photos are a bit dark.
Green-tailed Mermaid
She is a slim version of my mermaid pattern.
Blue-haired Mermaid
This one was the one that was driving me nuts; I think I redid every part of her! All will be easy now that she is finished :-)
I had a sudden fear that her hair looked like Marge Simpson so I had to google an image, just to make sure LOL!
