I made a shirt for myself from the firefly/lightening bug fabric and now this fox gets to wear it too. It will be better on her because it has gold highlights that came off my shirt when it was washed. I don’t think that will be a problem for her.
She has a super soft cashmere sweater with a silk bow. The sweater closes with a hook and loop under the bow.
Here is her moon purse. You can also see the antique star beads that I sewed onto her sweater.
This fox girl is in the forest, searching for mushrooms.
You can see that she has collected quite a few already!
She is a bit fancy.
She has a cashmere cardigan and shawl. And a very sweet purse.
I think her acid yellow (green?) corduroy jacket is the cutest!
Why yes, I did cut up a shirt of mine that I never wore and turned it into little animal clothes.
And a backpack on her back.
She is out to shop at the farmers market with her favorite basket.
A lacy shawl, a cashmere pullover sweater, and a skirt with all the animals.
Her basket and the stuff in it.
This dress is also made with Liberty fabric but I bought it in NYC at PurlSoho when we were there in January and life was old normal.
I put a little rabbit bead on her bag. I’ve had it for years so it is time to find a place for it.
Her dress is Liberty of London cotton lawn- lucky her! She is also wearing a cashmere cardigan and a lacy shawl. Do you want to know about the fabrics? When the pandemic started and we were first staying home (not at all unusual for me), I ordered up a bunch of new Liberty fabric (from here) because why not. Retail therapy, presents in the mail and all. The cashmere sweater was cut from a much bigger sweater that had holes in it. Her shawl is from a scrap of lace curtain that I got from my neighbor who is clearing out 45 years of stuff before she sells. She has given me tons of amazing materials. Everything has a story.
You might have heard that we got snow for Halloween- not the kind of Trick or Treat that I like. I am imagining my little fox saying- no no mommy, I don’t want to play in the snow! I am hoping that it will all be melted away by tomorrow- fingers crossed.
