Julia - Handmade Portrait Doll

Here's yet another one of the handmade portrait dolls made by me. I did my best to make it as close to the photo of the girl called Julia as possible. It was especially difficult to make the boots for the doll. The soles of the boots I made from plastic and the remaining parts from fleece. I'm satisfied with the result, but next time I'm going to try to make boots from leather. Why didn't I think about this in the first place?!

As I was told the doll resembles "the original" :) to a very great extent, but unfortunately there won't be a joint phone - Julia is a little bit shy :)

Handmade Toy: Inspired By Child's Drawing

This is an experimental handmade toy.
A friend of mine showed me this picture that her daughter drew and asked me whether I could sew such a fantastic animal.

Of course I agreed - it's always interesting to try to make something entirely new and I wanted to make the girl happy.
Here's what I made:

As I was later told (after the present had been given), it is difficult to put into words how the girl was happy.
So the experiment was successful!

Two Toy Ships and a Toy Snail - Handmade Toys

These two handmade toy ships and a nice snail toy became an adornment of one boy's room.
Our (my and my daughters) efforts didn't go to waste - the seashells we collected last summer at the seaside suited nicely.
