Stripes and cats

As some of you might know I've just gotten a brand new little kitten (I've had her for 1½ week now) An adorably cute little things that loves to cuddle with her "mommy" and unfortunately is a little bit too curious about my dolls. And like my old cats she's very interested in joining in as soon as I bring out the camera. It's a little bit hard to take photos when she's trying to run away with the pieces of fabric I'm trying to take pictures of though. LOL



The only cat photo that didn't turn out blurry. LOL



And one of the rare cat free ones


This is the beginning of the striped LittleFee sundress I told you about earlier. If I can keep Smulan (the kitten) from eating it I will give it a striped skirt as well but then I will probably had to add some black details as well or else it will probably be TOO cute for my LittleFee. LOL





BTW, my mom's found me this pink and white striped hair band thingy to use as fabric (it's knit, unlike the fabric I'm using now). Yay!

And finally some good LittleFee news! I've gotten confirmation from Fairyland that they've gotten my money so this time the order went through properly. Yay again!!! I'm now officially in the group of dolly waiters. (For those of you not familiar with this hobby, it involves A LOT of waiting. The dolls are hand made after you've ordered them)

More LitteFee news!

Today I had to re-order my LittleFee! *sigh* For some reason my previous order didn't go though completely. But this time I got a confirmation mail and an order number so it should hopefully work better. It feel a bit frustrating that I all of a sudden got 10 more days added to my long wait. But then I also got the opportunity to change my mind so this time I ordered a white skinned Ante Elf instead. (Believe it or not, I'm the person in my family that's best at making up my mind, that should tell you a lot about my mom and my brother. LOL)

This week I've finally finished the little sun dress I've been working on (based on a pattern made by Sweetiemom BTW). Or well, I'm cheating TINY but, the shoulder straps are only fastened with pins in the front I don't want to sew them on to the front until I'm able to actually try the dress. (They will look more even in length then)










My mom surprised me with some socks to use as fabric...


... which immediately resulted in a pair of LittleFee socks



And today I've started sewing on a second sundress for my spolied girl in pink and white (the striped fabric found here. No preview photos yet though (I've only sewn a shoulder strap so far, not much to show. LOL)

At the moment I'm thinking about maybe making dresses for Isa and Pytte in the same fabric. I'm pretty sure I'll make one for Pytte at least but Isa might be too old for "matching outfits". On the other hand it IS a cute fabric....

I've just ordered my LittleFee! Yay!!!

Fairyland's Summer Event turned in to an Autumn Event and it both was and wasn't worth the long wait. What wasn't worth the long wait, for me at least, was the only event gift that I'm eligible to get, the puki pumpkin head.





Since I don't celebrate Halloween (most people in Sweden don't since it's not a Swedish holiday) and since I suspect Pytte would be REALLY upset if she head to run around with a pumpkin on her head LOL, I have absolutely no use for it and plan to sell it as soon as I get it (there still seem to be a bunch of people that like it so I will hopefully get it sold, I guess it can be cute and useful if you celebrate Halloween)

What WAS worth waiting for though was the fact that they just released a LittleFee Ante ELF (=the doll I'd already planned to get PLUS nice, pointy elf ears) So today I've ordered her!!!! *bounce, bounce, bounce* Of course I got the elf version! (This is something I really wished they would make, and I like her face up even better, it's more PINK.) I ended up ordering a natural skinned Ante instead of a white skinned Ante that I'd originally planned though.



LittleFee Ante Elf - Isn't she adorable?


I'm NOT ordering the fullset (too expensive) so I'm not getting the clothes and wig. You have to picture her with black hair and green eyes instead and the dress I've been showing previews of so far (I've sewn a bit more since so it's nearly done now)

I'm also head over heals in love with the new "Real Pukis" SoSo and Tyni! I can't afford them though but they've at least ended up on my wish list.



SoSo


Tyni (my favorite)


These little guys are only 9,5cm, compared to Pytte's 11cm (and compared to the fact that there are 80cm dolls as well, and I think there's even a 90 cm one)


(All photos by Fairyland, I've only resized them to fit in the blog)
