Look What I Made!

 I have been wanting to make the little girls some dolls for a while now and when I saw these cute dolls Dahlia made I decided to get off my duff and make some.   I used part of the pattern from here and I used the instructions from another pattern here.  
 Meet Gracie Poo, Selina, and Tabetha.

This is Hannah's doll Selina.   She changes her name every other day.  Hannah insisted her doll have blue button eyes.  I tried to talk her out of it, but she was insistant.  Now, she doesn't like them.  She says her doll has "evil eyes", and she wishes she  had chosen black eyes, "like Katie's doll."


Katie named her doll Tabetha.  Real Tabetha felt very honored to have a doll named after her and so she named her doll Tatie Tot, is honor of Katie.  (Maybe Tabetha will post pictures of her dolls on her blog.  Her's turned out very cute.)

We named Mya's doll Gracie Poo.  One night we were having dinner and we were having Katie say every one's names.  It is so cute to hear her say her name is KateYin Yizbiff Yowry.  Anyway, She was going around the table saying everyone's names including last name and, then we asked her to say May's name.  She said her name is Mya Gracie Poo.  It was so cute.
 I think this doll looks like Cindy Lou Who from the Grinch.  Maybe it should be called Gracie Poo Who.

I had so much fun making these, and I have been making other things too.  I will post more soon.
