Winter

Inspired by a Barbara Stuart pattern

Crocheted scissors case. I modified an Annie's Attic pattern.
I'm working on the Elinor Peace Bailey Victorian doll Finished! I bought the two patterns at Pieces Quilt Shop in Renton, Washington. The doll on the left is the Retro Angel, I left off the wings because I thought she was magical enough. On the right is a doll from the Miniature Victorian and Pierrot pattern.
4.75 x 3.5 inch book with pockets on some of the pages.

This pattern adapted from one on Celt's Vintage Crochet site Instead of DMC size 8, South Maid Size 10 and steel crochet hook 5 was used. This is a doll bought at Lot-Less, it is 7 inches high.

Japanese Stab Binding

Stamps by Stampers Anonymous. A page from a fatbook on Paisley and Polka Dots
Beaded mah jong tile pendant Domino Pin I bought the box at a bazaar at the Van Cortlandt Senior Center, painted it, put the die cut on it. Put a final coat of clear acrylic on it.

Rolodex holder

I took part in a Rolodex swap. Here's the holder I made to save the cards. It's an accordion folder.
