Miniature works are fun

Working on small items for the dolls house is so much fun.

This small blanket/afghan for the bed is finished now and on the bed that I have shown you in a previous post. It is crocheted in embroidery threads, and each block is about 1" small. In real life the granny square blanket would be bigger, but as this is for decoration purpose only, I want the underneath bedding to be seen too.



Construction of the house has started at last now that Tony has cut me a base board to work on.
One downstairs room is almost complete.


And the kitchen table was a new start for this week.


Today is an embroiders guild work day and I shall be stitching on the miniature rug.

See you next time with more miniatures

Happy Stitching

The only thing I've got to show this week is a broken plate.

Here is my stitched plate.


And here it is broken...... (cut apart)


Then I put glue (stitches) on all the broken edges.


And then stuck (stitched) it back together again.


Close up of repair job, lol.


That was all in the name of experimenting and having fun.

See you next time.

Miniature Bed almost complete

Update on my miniature bed - two pillows made, and a crochet blanket.
Now planning a granny square blanket (or something similar) to drape over the foot of the bed.



And in other news - here is the cloth doll with most of her clothes made. Just a few finishing touches to add.


My knitting skills have come on in leaps and bounds this year. Here are two more test patterns that I've tried over the last couple of days.


Woohoo, I'm liking my new craft.

That's all for now.
See you in the next post.

Happy Stitching.
