“This is the new playsuit I ordered from my friend at Madam Malkins’!” I wanted to see if I could put pockets in one of Sarah’s playsuits, and Sarah also really liked this fabric. As you can probably see, these pockets aren’t actually visible from the front of the shorts, which I’m very happy with!…… Continue reading Unboxing

You’ve Got Mail
I’ve been busy assembling a variety of different-sized parcel boxes recently, for packages both great and small. The boxes match the postage tube and envelope that I made previously. Maybe we need to open a post office in Diagon Alley…. hmm…… The reason I made these is because Sarah got a delivery today! “When did…… Continue reading You’ve Got Mail
Pillars of Completion…?
When I mentioned ‘minor adjustments’ I wanted to make to the TARDIS, I meant I wanted to update the pillars, as they were finished in a rush. They’re now significantly taller, and closed at the end, which looks so much better than having them open! These bases also mean this set is as close to…… Continue reading Pillars of Completion…?
Project Roundup
I’ve been meaning to replace the hood on Sarah’s 13th Doctor coat for a while, as it was originally made with too-small scraps, and I finally got round to it. This new one sits much better over the shoulders, and it fits over her head! The obligatory recreating-the-promo-pics….. picture. I’m also making another birds’ nest…… Continue reading Project Roundup
Complete TARDIS!
After one year and 170 hexagons, the TARDIS set is, finally, COMPLETE. Just quietly, there are still bits I want to nitpick, but I won’t talk about those because it’s FINISHED and I need a break. ;D Sarah loves it just as much as I do, and she’s very excited to go exploring in it!…… Continue reading Complete TARDIS!
New Methods
In a recent Mollie Makes edition, there was an article on making miniatures for a doll's house, one of which was balls of yarn. They were made by wrapping the yarn around a small segment of straw, which is a better method than the one I used to use, and you can see the difference in… Continue reading New Methods
Spring Bunting
This is almost like a series, isn't it? "On this episode of Seasonal Bunting, it's spring!" *catchy theme tune* It nearly matches Sarah's new pants, doesn't it? Putting up the new bunting marks the change of the seasons for Sarah, and she's hopefully heading to Diagon Alley again next weekend for some flowers and plants… Continue reading Spring Bunting
Granny Square Day
Today is Granny Square Day, and the idea behind it is that you create and/or post a picture of a granny square online, so that there is a virtual granny square blanket across the internet. This wonderful lady created the day, and I thought it'd be fun to bring out the rainbow granny square blanket… Continue reading Granny Square Day
Red Riding Hood
I didn't really have a use in mind when I made this cloak, apart from 'just to see if I can'. I guess sometimes you do need those sort of projects, though. It clasps in the front with a simple hook and eye, and it's bordered with a darker red yarn. The swirling designs on… Continue reading Red Riding Hood
