Crochet creaturs stories

This week the time is yet passing so quickly, while my pace is very slow. I wish it would be Sunday today and that i will have time, to do all the things I wanted. At Saturday there will be home exhibition and sell of my dolls, and of other designers. You can see the invitation here. beside that I was making new crochet creatures. There was left only with one of the band I crocheted for Sonia. they are all having fun as Sonia wrote me this morning and even send their kisses. I really like to work with this yarn, which is almost run out. I also enjoy the small sizes of them. here they are:

This was the first from this series, When he was completly croheted, I fell that something is missing so I crocheted him this sweater. He is a bit wierd guy, I think he will get along with the winter worm, but I havn't intreduced them yet, she is a bit wierd too.
This one is the seocend one, from the new band, he wanted me to take his photo with the back yard black cat.

and the third one, with the redhair cat.

Saturday morning walk

She is done, completely, with all of her garments and accessories. I already listed her and her young cloth fellow at my shop few days ago. I have a lot of photo of her in different poses. I found out that one of the most difficult parts is choosing which photo to show and which leave sleeping at my hardisc. It's much easier to take many photos, then choosing the best from them. Sometimes there is a photo which is not from the best shoots but yet tell something that I like to
sare.

This morning I fel that I yet don't have enough interesting photos from this couple. It was Saturday and sunny outside, we went four of us (Gal, the fourth cloth couple and me) to Neve Tzedek.



We found this quite corner with trees, grass, and children playing around, at Suzanne Dellal Center. This girl was worried about three other girls with rollerblades she lost.

I placed them at the ground in order to take a family shoot of them, together. It was the first time I took my dolls to a walk outside at Tel Aviv, but I feel little weird about that because when I look at these photos, it seems as if we went to another city, which is quite and calm not like Tel Aviv is, and not like the way I was today, stressed and nervous. When I published this photo at flickr , I received a comment from Syrian pharmacist.

Dressing

Here she is yet wondering. There is a lot of questions to answer, at least she got only one outfit, so there is less opportunities to try.

Ironning the dolls garments

Today was dedicate to the tinny garments of this new couple I am making.

I am lucky to have this ironing board,
usually it is for the used for ironing shirts sleeves.
This one was belong to my grand grandmother who was a tailor
It is very useful to all of the tiny dolls clothes,
thought sometimes even this one is too big for the garments I sew.
I
This time I was clever then the previous time and use this handkerchief, in order to prevent rust stains.

This is the sewed dress not hemmed yet.
I try to fit some ribbon to this but I not sure yet.

staring dolls

Since Sunday I was making new couple of cloth dolls this one is the fourth. The making of it long at least one week if I intensively working. I send the first couple I made at last Friday, and began the new one since I left without any couple at my home. I don't know why but I feel some kind of emptiness and hardly make myself doing everything I have to do for creating those dolls. Every morning I spend at least one hour staring at flickr, checking if there is something new there or here at my blog, at my mail or at my shop , and then over and over again.
It's quite pointless, I just got that mood this week and hardly hardly move myself from that chair.
If I do manage to move myself I am taking more photos of the dolls I have here.
That is a good reason to come back to my computer corner and go on staring at the screen.
I have the excuse that I have to edit the photos.
Then I found out that the dolls at the photos are just sitting and daydreaming like I do.

Cloth couple and stains

Finally I finish this cloth couple. I wanted to bring him at the morning to the store. They sell one couple and they ask me for other one. I though that they will be ready at the end of last week, but as usual it was longer then I estimated. When they were ready yesterday I wanted to photo them and take them to the store already, but it was too late, so I let them rest at my ironing board. When I arrange them to the photos this morning I found ugly yellow stains at the woman dress. It's looked as if she spoiled tea at her self or was too lazy to go to the bathroom as Gal said. I wasn't cared much about their origin (probably rust from the iron) as how I am going to clean them. I tried 90% alcohol(as I do in those sensitive situations). and the stains grow up and become uglier. At that moment I mostly wanted to tear out my hair. I tried to embroidery something to hide them (something that my mother probably would suggested). It's become even worst, and really didn't suit to this doll personality. I was so desperate and nervous. When last I decided that it's hopeless, and that I should sew new dress (which mean few hours of working), I found out that I can cut it at the waist and change a bit the silhouette , but yet have the dress with clean lines as I firstly made it.
