IT WAS THE NIGHT BEFORE

CHAT N SNAP 2017! and for once I have actually finished what I needed to make and have filled the living room with all the things I need to take with me! Just need to pop out later to get the food for tomorrow and then I'm all set. ! It's a first!

I do have a few things I still need to do , sort out my dolls for tomorrow etc but that's all once food bought.



I made the sheets and pillowcase yesterday and cut the blanket out today.


Then made the eiderdown this afternoon.


I'm quite pleased how it all came out.


It's reversible !


I think it works, I wanted it to be in keeping with the age of the bed which is from the late 1890's. so no quilts! Proper sheets and blankets.

The bed is intended for my larger Schoenhut dolls but I'm sure the Sasha's will make use of it too!

Well I'll be back on Sunday to start reporting back about how the day went and everything that was available etc.

  4. I'm also looking forward to the photos - and the bed linens are so beautifully made, you wouldn't guess from the pictures they are only doll sized.

  5. Wishing everyone attending a simply FABULOUS time. Will be feeling rather sorry for myself with not being able to go but looking forward to seeing ALL the photos and rest assured a number of you will be receiving a phone call on Saturday night or Sunday asking for a full verbal account of this lovely event.
    Special thanks to Denise and Paul (plus their family) for all their hard work again.

    1. We will miss you Kendal, no one will be as thorough as you at getting a photo of every doll!
      I'm sure people will be posting photos of the fb group while still enjoying the day! Not me I don't have the technology! or the time!
      It's my helpers that deserve the praise :)

  8. I missed this post at the time, now looking back through your recent posts. What a wonderful bed and bedding and those two lucky Sasha's certainly looked comfy in it on Saturday.
