Lilly was excited as can be at Christmas when she opened up her doll and doll clothes from Grandma and Papap (her grandfather.)
She was promptly named after me, because of the curly hair.
Here is one of the beautiful peices of clothing my mom stitched up for little Emily. I wish this little red fleece with the beautiful black glass buttons was in my size!
Mom made this beautiful dress too. The fabric is delicate with the pretty blossoms scattered all over it and is so lovely, trimmed with dainty lace. Lilly's intense concetration gives a good indication of her pleasure in playing with her new dolly.
I love the little red jacket too... so cute!

Both little Emily and Lilly are adorable. Are you now in charge of making more clothes?

That concentrated look is precious. I love it when my kids play that intently with something. Gorgeous Waldorf doll.

I love the little Lilly toes!
That doll is gorgeous! My 12-year-old still sleeps with her Waldorf doll ... and the doll still gets a package of mama-made clothes under the Christmas tree each year :-)

It's a beautiful doll, and I love her hair!

What a great doll! And Emily looks so studious putting that dress on - lots of determination there!

Lovely doll and her owner is the prettiest wee herself. I keep thinking of making a rag doll or more for my youngest granddaughter, - the sleeping/awake kind.
I guess I must get a tad more organized with all the projects whizzing in my head...
Beautiful outfits, - you or your mum should make such for Lilly, Emily!
Hugs from Eva Mari :)

Very sweet. I love the intense determined look on her face as she dresses her new little doll.

I love the way she has her feet wrapped around the doll to hold it while she dresses it. My daughter used to do that, too. And I love the slippers. I admire you for being able to follow a pattern from a Japanese book. The results are wonderful. love, Beth

Your mom did a great job on the doll! Soooo sweet! So, do you have patterns for other clothes for her? I can't recall if I sent any doll patterns to you or not! If not let me know... I may have some to spare!
And you just need to find a pattern that you like that is similar to the red dress/coat and make it! See my comment on your next post!
