Long Time No See!

I'm not going to make apologies for not blogging in a month.  I'm really not.  I see so many people write on their Blogs that they are 'SORRY' for not 'BEING a GOOD blogger'. That's okay, but I'm not going to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry.  Wait... no, sorry... I'm not sorry. ;-)

Some of you might think I'm not 'active' on Etsy or Flickr... or anywhere.  I'm still here, but I'm taking care of my husband, as he had a total knee prosthesis and he needs a lot of care.  His surgery was on july 9th, he's up and doing his excercises and and he can walk unsupported.  He's doing well.  

I'm not sewing or doing crochet at the moment but I will start again in the near future.

Anyhoooooo.... I got pictures from Caroline.  I sent her three of my dollies and I think they are about to come back home in a few days.  They only need some details and some gloss. 

Peyton, my Mystic Bayer

Flea; my LatiWhite Belle... FINALLY my teeny tiny one will be 'complete', after all the hassle with Lati. 

And my tiny WhiteSkin Bug

I can't wait to have them home!  Thank you so much, Caroline!

Feeler = Tan Enyo

It looks like the little Bug has found a loving home! Thank you so much!! =:)
~~~~~~~~~~~ 

It seems I can't get used to this little one.  But I'm not too sure if I can let it go either.  

It's a beautiful Bug, Laura painted it and she has done a great job -she forgot the little heart on the forehead, though.

I took it out of it's box just this once, put the eyes in, dressed it, took a few pictures... undressed it and put it back in the box.  It's been a few weeks ago now.  I feel guilty for keeping it as so many people want a little tan Bug so much.  

What to do!?

If you could give it a loving home... you can email me with your offer.  Please use the 'write me' -button for your privacy.

OhDeer Helmets & Poofy Pants...

I made these sets to celebrate the upcoming arrival of 'your' Bug(s). :)

More sets to come -also bright colours- and soon on the E-place.

Poofy Pants are handsewn in high quality cotton fabric (Liberty of London).  Helmets are done in Egyptian shiny Cotton and have handsculpted polymere antlers, chinstrap with loop and bead for closure.

Thanks for looking!

Poofy Pants...

... and Helmets... none of these are 'finished'... I have to add 'stuff' to create the final 'look' but most of the work is done.  These are made for the Bugs and their siblings and I will put up lots of bright colours and some subtile colours too. :)

I will post more pictures and details soon.

My hand and wrist are much better. Still a little stiff and some movements are more difficult than others but overall I'm happy.  I can sew again... I can do most of my work in the house... the wound is ALMOST healed and the numbness and tingling are COMPLETELY gone... 

Life is good!

Bug Gerhls.

We had hail today. In a matter of minutes there was a giant carpet of hailstones outside.  And as if that wasn't enough, there was thunder and lightening too.  SO loud and heavy... one of my dogs was so scared, he was trembling the whole time and if he could (he ate too much doggy biscuits) he would have hidden under a closet.

So.... I took some pictures inside of my Bug Gerhls.  They decided to be girls for today. :)

The quality of the picture s*cks, but the Bugs are still TOO cute.

Bug Hats Galore!

These Bug Hats will go on Etsy on sunday november 6th at 8pm CET.

Please check your local time here

All hats are the same, the same pattern, the same amount of tiny stitches, the same quality of cotton thread, they each have a tiny heart shaped button.

See second picture mosaïc, it's the same apple green hat in each shot:

you can pull it tighter over the ears, tie it in front, tie it in the back, manipulate the little antennas... and so on.  So... all different looks depending on how you use it.

One hat, so many different looks. 

Eh... okay Frankie, we all got it, thank you. :o

Bug Hat Caterpillar. ;-)

Gotcha!

Some quick pictures for reference.  I think they look cute together, no?! =:3

Strange.

Something very strange is going on.  I'd planned my bugs to be girls.  I bought them each 2 wigs, a bunch of shoes and I was planning on sewing girly girl clothes for them.  Now here's this weird thing; for some odd reason I simply can not put a wig on them, it's just not right to me.  I see owner pictures on Flickr of sweet Enyo girls with pink wigs and whatnot... and they are beautiful and cute... but my little critters won't let me transform them into either girls.... nor boys.

 They are beautiful and cute and adorable and amazing little... bugs. And they don't want hair at this moment.  For the very same reason I can not picture them with shoes,  I didn't even try to put shoes on, I just can't.  They are satisfied with their Poofy Rompers, their Bug Hats and of course Sloppy Socks to keep their little toes warm, NO shoes wanted and certainly not girly girl frilly clothes! :o

And what a Bug wants, a Bug gets.

ETA:

Thank you all SO much for your requests for Enyo clothes.  Your warm comments and support is very much appreciated, it's amazing that so many people like my sewing so much. 

I'm sewing when and what I can, I stitch everything by hand, so it takes some time to finish a set. (and I have to sew for P-dollies too, I can't just ignore them ;-)  )

So, please read my 'about my sewing' page and know that I'm really enjoying my sewing and I will go on as long as I'm able to.

Mini shop update will be in a week or so... (depending... you know) I will have some sets for P-girls and for 'Da Bugs.  

Again, I can't write it enough: thank you, thank you, thank you! =:3
