Specially ordered, specially made, now lives across the ocean – mommy Eevi.

Specialiai uzsakyta, specialiai padaryta ir sekmingai gyvenanti uzu atlanto – mamyte Eevi.

There will be more bears and more babies… but next time: I’m planing to share some more of those lovely Japanese books I’ve and one of them will be up for grabs.

Enjoy your weekend!

Bus daugiau mesku ir kudikeliu… bet sakanti karta planuoju pasidalinti mielom japoniskom knygelem ir viena nedidele dovanele. Gero savaitgalio!

Olivia has a baby!

She had only one wish on her list and how could I have not grounded it? Baby Oliver was born healthy and made his mum (and their new owner) very very happy

I was making Bingo, the dog, for Davi, but sometimes even I can not control everything. He chose Olivia as his best friend. So I made another dog who now adores Davi

This is the 3d version of a pram that my bear finally said ‘yes’ to. Still not perfect… I had my own ideas how it should look, but it ended up almost a copy of this one. In any way, you’ll see more prams here from now on. There are more babies on the way…

Those linen booties and crock stitching in my previous post where both copied from ever so inspiring Japanese craft magazines/books.

Here are a couple from my stash:

For my sweet baby ISBN4-07-246385-x

I’ve bought mine here but you can try other places. Some more pictures: here and here.

Next up it’s one of my favourites:

Heart warming life series – Idees special ISBN978-4-529-04493-6

Found a good site with quite a few Japanese craft books reviews in it. Have fun!

Two people made a little precious person and I made a little welcome gift for them/him.

Linen/cotton/wool filling. Mushroom toy has a squeaker…to hopefully entertain…

Some more of those little things to come.

Well it’s not much, but let’s say it’s not the quantity, but the quality what we count New teddies almost popping into my etsy shop:

first up is Oak with Dutsy (a talking parrot who only says nice things, so far)

then we have Nidas and tiny Sol (duckling who thinks Nidas is his mom)

Bigger boys:

no name 1

no name 2

no name 3

I’ve also finished one of the two things I’ve started knitting

It was for my little set – all for a gorgeous little boy Emlyn, our friend’s first born

I’m quite proud of my linen bibs

I admit, I like making small things mainly because I like fitting with tiny details and love sowing by hand, so anything that requires sowing machine is a much bigger challenge for me, but I’m getting there . I made my first mini linen trousers, crap picture, but those pants are definitely not!

To be continued…
