frock swap

knit dress and shoes

beezie is showing off the lovely clothes she got from aunty gill. it is unusual to find her in a dress. she graciously informed me that smidge could have it when she gets home, but i think she looks sweet in it. (she read that last over my shoulder and stated emphatically that she is NOT sweet, she is an explorer!

the second outfit from aunty gill was a lovely pair of knit pants and shirt. this one beezie claimed as her own but stated that smidge would have to get her own shoes as she is not giving these ones up.

smilga outfit

here is an absolutely gorgeous outfit we got from smilga (see link on side to see more of her wonderful stuff!)

smilga dress with new wig

beezie wanted to show how nice it looks with her new hair and of course her ever present goggles 😆

we were fighting the wind (blowing her hair) our cat (sure she must be a strange mouse) and strong shadows ’cause it was kind of late in the day.  i’ll have to take a better picture later.

digory’s new shirt

digory's new shirt

digory was getting awfully hot running around in sweaters all the time, so he requested a new t-shirt. i love the colors and the way the embroidery turned out, but i really need to learn how to sew knits properly, cause the neckline is pretty wonky!

i found an unusual seed under a cabbage leaf in my garden. i thought it was just a myth that babies are found under cabbage leaves, but you never know….

so having a boy in the house is really shaking things up.  boys are loud and have so much energy.  the girls were being driven to distraction, so i decided to take him on a road trip to explore the mountains, welcome him here, and give the girls a little respite.

first we drove off to kananskis to try to get to elbow lake.  the first road we tried was closed so we headed off on backroads tying to go the long way round to see if we could get there another way.  after a couple of hours in the car digory was getting really wiggly, so we stopped at the start of a small trail and went exploring.

digory insisted on dragging along his new skateboard.  (it was supposed to be for his brother who is still away at school but i’m not sure digory will give it up 🙂 )

he is quite the little ham, and loves to climb on everything

funky boy

we found a whole field of dandelions and digory was quite fascinated with these strange yellow things. i don’t think he’ll like them quite as much after he has to weed the garden a few times 🙂

introducing digory

digory with enhanced faceup and body blushing our house has grown with the addition of a boy!  this is digory a white skinned littlefee boy.  when he arrived i found the skin color too stark and wondered how he’d ever blend in with the rest of us. the other surprise was that the 6/7 wig he was supposed to wear turned out to be way too big.  so there he sat waiting for a long time.  after a lot of thought and research i decided to enhance his default faceup (which i also wasn’t all that thrilled with.)   i added extra blushing and freckles, then cut all the curls off of an auburn  5/6 girls wig to  make him into a pale redhead. i love how he turned out.

digory is a real boy. he was not impressed that i didn’t have a shirt for him yet. “look lady” he said “don’t you know redheads burn easily?”  i think he is going to shake things up as the girls have been quiet and ladylike so far.

eiderdown swap

i joined a swap for bedding for realpukis/ pukipukis.  my partner liked purple and teddies.  it was fun to do ’cause i love purple and teddies too, so i had lots of fabric that worked.  she sent me the dimensions she wanted and here is what i made.  i think it came out rather well.

 

here is a picture she took of her cute zoey with her new quilt
