Poppy

The cool, summer morning woke us with a few glistening rays of sunshine peeking and shimmering through the drizzling rain. We hoped for a warm day at the park, but Mother Nature finally made up her mind and settled on wet. Still, that didn't keep Poppy from wanting to go play. The flowers look just a little prettier with the sparkle from rain. And after all, if you have a lovely summer sweater and hat to wear there's just no reason not to go on a nature walk.

Now Poppy is on Etsy, ready to come to a new home.

And I had fun creating the patterns for her little dress and bloomers. I'm working on putting together the pattern and a tutorial for making them that I'll post on here in the next couple of days. I thought it would be fun to share it, since I have benefited from so many wonderful doll creators and knitting designers who shared their wealth of knowledge. So keep a watch out.
