Let's Drive! (My First Toy Car)

A few days ago I saw toy cars sewed from fabric at a handmade site. I liked them so much and I decided to sew something similar. Unfortunately... no - fortunately I didn't find a pattern for a car. My desire to craft a toy car was so big, so I had nothing else to do and created the pattern by myself.

And here it is - my Toy Car sewed from jeans:

A Sweet Couple - Taxi Driver and Journalist (not Tilda)

In a fortnight two loving people, Kate and Alex are going to get married. A good friend of Kate's, Anastasia, asked me to make something special for them... After my questions about them she told me that Alex is a taxi driver; Kate works as a journalist at the Culture radio, she is a stylish thing and likes various fashion accessories...

That's the history behind of how this Toy Couple was made. After showing them to my client, Anastasia, she told that she liked them very much and they looked like real Kate and Alex.
I did my best :))

Dreams Come True or How I Became a Fairy Again

This pretty girl (not Tilda) flew to Kiev, Ukraine to Lada Grazhdan (Lenity)

Handmade Toys Dolls - sNezhnaya

Lada was dreaming about a doll like this and wrote about her dream at the forum that organizes the gift exchange game. I read her message and decided to fulfil her wish.
I'd like to say that this is my first doll in this girl-with-big-feet style and I'm sure this is not the last one. I liked sewing it very much.

Oh... I just want to add that she's quite a self-reliant girl - she's able to stay and sit by herself without any assistance :))

Mouse Doll (not Tilda)

I had some remnants of grey linen... that's how this Mouse Doll appeared.
At first in my imagination I saw a gallant mouse gentleman in white shirt and trousers... but in the end I crafted this young lady wearing a sun-dress.

She can move her hands and legs. Also she can stand and sit. So I'm sure the girl whose parents bought this doll will have fun playing with this Mouse doll.

Karina - a Sleepy Tilda Angel for a little girl

Thanks to my participation in the Mlyn Handmade Fair I got an order to sew a sleepy Tilda angel for a 3-year-old girl whose name was Karina. Karina's father had been looking for a toy to hang it over her bed - to guard Karina's dreams, so I told him that a sleepy angel is the right choice.
Here's the sleepy angel I crafted for Karina. For some reason this Tilda angel-girl wanted to become red-haired and have a mouth (which is not typical of Tilda dolls). I also made a nightcap for her but the capricious Tilda toy didn't want to try it on.
