About Me

My photo
IMAGINATION IS THE EYE OF THE SOUL Joseph Joubert. I am a mother of four...I still remember the smile that refused to go away for weeks after our daughters birth. To have a little girl appear after three sons seemed such a miracle. I have always enjoyed My Doll World, sharing it with Lara when she was little. Today I design knitted outfits for miniature dolls and enjoy every minute of it. The fact that the outfits are removable is what makes it so special for me. Using ever finer threads has opened so many MINIATURE DESIGN opportunities.

1 : 12th Scale Miniatures

Cats and More Cats

My friend Ana has been honing her furring skills,
she is off to America to learn all she can.

 In the meantime she has been "getting ready"...

I know all her tools are packed.









I love the cats she has already made, can't make up my mind which one I like best!
The tails move and the eyes simply talk to one.

Miniature Knitting in the Studio

SPRING CLEANING

I have been going through boxes and sorting out stuff and came across the only little rubber baby that I find appealing.

I DID NOT REALIZE IT....
but guess what
HE IS THE SAME SIZE AS BELLY BUTTON BABY

So I tried on the Erika dress and low and behold it fits him except for that bent little arm, but that is not too serious.

I just had too share as I know how many of you out there just adore these little babies.

The New Baby

I was going through my photographs and thought these were too cute not to share.


Julie arriving home in "THE BASKET"


Alex taking a closer look!!!  Then he simply walked away...
He knew trouble when he saw it!


This baby sitting lark is a job all on it's own!!


This was "MY" basket after all!


Look how small I was!

Now I am all grown up and can jump onto Moms Work Station when she goes out shopping and eat her miniature flowers that she took a whole morning to make!!!

Julie says "I'm the boss in this house for sure....."



This gave me a whole new meaning to the saying

THE DOG ATE MY HOMEWORK!

Miniature Knitting Patterns Belly Button Baby

Welcome to my new followers thank you for all the comments about my work, really kind of you all.

It has been a roller coaster ride these last 3 months.
I have been really busy in real life...started out thinking I would fix up an apartment I intend using in my "OLD AGE" as in when I can no longer drive.

I realize that I am no longer 30 
things take longer to do these days.

Ended up gutting the the place....new windows floors, kitchen, bathroom, doors and floors.

I DID KNIT THOUGH it was the only thing that kept me sane.

I am so happy with the way the design turned out especially the bib! I am busy with a pillow and that should be finished tonight.



Pillow Finished So I have added the new picture
Early tomorrow I will do the tech edit.
