Crafty Whatnots

I was asked for a doll like the ones I have already done, but a little smaller version. I made this little girl but she was a bit too small, it only took a few hours to find her a new home, so off she went 😁

Then my daughter NEEDED a Niffler ?? As you can see no sooner finished than up to no good ...

I was asked to make a baby blanket and soft toy set, with a Harry Potter theme, this is what I came up with.

I also had a request for a doll which I have finished this week, and as she has arrived at her new home (awaiting to be named) I can share her with you now.

Following a really bad shoulder injury which turned to a frozen shoulder, I actually had to stopped crocheting for two months due to the pain it caused me. But I'm back, so I finished the gift my niece asked me for ...

My Niece called and asked ever so nicely if I could make her teacher a baby blanket and teddy set as she is having a baby girl, she doesn't know when he teacher is leaving so I got cracking. Blanket done teddy to go.

After making my mum a Memory Elephant, she asked me to make one for my Uncle out of my Auntie's clothes. Safely delivered to his new home.

That will be the day 😜 😂

Another special request, a blanket and teddy set, for a new baby boy, I had free reign and with elephants on my mind, this is what happened 😜😄

After a crazy run up to Christmas and thinking I have finally completed my list of requests, somehow it is still just as long if not longer ??? This little lady will be off to her new home very soon .....

My hubby has taken up wood turning and has made a number of lovely things. The Mum in law asked when he would make something for her ? I came up with an idea to turn some mushrooms/toadstools, I would arrange them on a log base and make a clay frog (she loves frogs) it would be a joint Christmas gift, this is what we came up with ...

Now then, I had a request from my Auntie, she wanted two OOAK dolls for two very special little girls. From monster high to Sally from night mare before Christmas. It took me months with set back after set back, not to mention me watching the film over and over. Of course my imagination never being satisfied there were changes and up grades. Everything for these dolls was hand made by me, the cats and fish bones, wooden spoons, clay bowls and hand stitched patchwork dresses, I even wove the baskets from rough string ! Funny part about it all was when I delivered them, she didn't know what all the accessories were about, so I asked her had she seen the film ? .... NO 😂😂

Well when my Mum saw Ginger she fell in love but didn't want an elf that had to go away, she wanted a rag doll with the same features, so here she is ( still waiting for a name )

As I mentioned I started a 2nd elf for Christmas 2018, her name is Ginger Breadman, again she was for my Mum in law, both elves have joined the other 16 who live with the in laws 😜

1st little elf, this guy was actually started in autumn for my Mum in law for Christmas 2017, after starting another for Christmas 2018 I found him so finished him first, he's called Sprig O' holly 😉

OK, now the craziness of Christmas is over I can share what I have been up to without spoiling things, here we go ...OK, now the craziness of Christmas is over I can share what I have been up to without spoiling things, here we go ...
