My Creative Space: Craft Fail!!!



Yup we all have them once in a while! We are in the middle of a house renovation and getting to my sewing machine is a task!!! And as I am working on some dolls at the moe … I thought I’d have a day off and try out a new pattern I have been tinkering with ……

Oh my goodness… even my daughter is terrified of her!!!! I made her?!!! How did that happen? Where did she come from (out of space if you ask me!) What’s up with her bandy legs? And her hair looks like a helmet!                        

This was an official Dolly Craft Fail!!!!



However my mini ‘print your own’ dolly pattern (although I used fabric marker pens to get a quick size and shape idea sewn up) has come out wonderfully! Yay!!


And I also got to sew on one of my fab new home made labels! Hooray!


So not a complete waste of a week!
Why not pop over to Kootoyoo to see other creative spaces :)



Take Care and Happy Crafting!

  2. Oh I don't know about craft fail. I quite like her! She would look awesome with one of C's little baby dresses on. Loving the paperdoll turned plushy too. She has turned out great!!

  4. Lovin' the mini success. I can imagine a veritable family of mini's with maximum portability (stuffed in kid pockets) factored in...
