What I think I will try is some clear plastic from one of those hellish shrink wrap items and use a marker to color them blue. This is becoming a real team effort. Carly is totally into Santa and we have decided that Santa will give her the ski outfit. I am just making it for him. ; )Bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672695141031447916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-37487753598521574302014-12-06T14:48:10.113-05:002014-12-06T14:48:10.113-05:00You might want to try a "snuggy" too!You might want to try a "snuggy" too!Bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672695141031447916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-45552151287779628662014-12-06T14:47:27.671-05:002014-12-06T14:47:27.671-05:00My kids love to come up and ski Titus and will at ...My kids love to come up and ski Titus and will at Christmas.

I have some small double pointed needles that would be perfect for the ski poles, and I can easily send them to you (rosewood or aluminum, I have tons). I spent several childhood summers on Lake Titus...skiing is a good way to enjoy the winter! <br />My daughter sent me an ebay link to American Doll listings. I kept all her dolls and some accessories but they are too "well loved" to be collectible. I suspect Carly will never part with hers!

I will never be doing that again- when I am home for the holidays, I will be making a run to JoAnn's to get quilting cotton for next years round, and make 1-2 a month so it's not so stressful. I am now moving on to Tilly and Button's Franciose dress. I have two versions I want to make before the December 14th contest deadline. Hopefully I have some time this weekend to work on them.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02106719072402325356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-54765255752384001912014-12-04T14:22:23.820-05:002014-12-04T14:22:23.820-05:00Bunny, I have a small flag appliqué one inch by on...Bunny, I have a small flag appliqué one inch by one half inch.

What about using doll needles for the ski poles? They come in different sizes and you could blunt the sharp points. You probably wouldn't have to do much more. Waiting eagerly to see your jacket.

I'm so intrigued by your current jacket project and cannot wait to see it. Here in AZ, I am sewing a holiday dress using B5850. I did some tissue fitting, and am sewing up a test version with a looser skirt. The Christmas dress will be of a black and bright blue jersey. Happy sewing!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03517527498809073174noreply@blogger.com
