Blueberry Baby Bubble
This little bubble was a quick sew. The yoke is cotton pointelle knit and the body is a soft cotton lawn.
I added a small blueberry embroidery to the yoke to coordinate with the blueberries on the print.
The back has a keyhole opening with a single button and loop.
Here is the bubble on a newborn doll. It is a good fit and I think the colors are pretty.
Modeled back view.
Here is a view of the leg casings. It is done in blue gingham. Gingham and florals look great together. This was a quick, fun project. I like it when you can make something cute in a couple of hours!

Baby Juno ITH Doll
My daughter and I made this Baby Juno In The Hoop Doll (design from Planet Applique). It is stitched entirely in the hoop of the embroidery machine. I did the stitching and she did the stuffing and joints.
This is the 5x5 hoop size, so the finished doll is about 14" long. I wanted to make it as a model for preemie clothing.
Here's a view of the doll undressed. The limbs are joined with plastic joints I bought on Etsy. The fingers are very tiny and it was hard to get any stuffing in them. It does come with an option for hands without fingers, which might be good on the 2 smallest sizes.
This comes in 4 sizes: 4x4, 5x7 (mine), 6x10, or 8x12. I think the larger sizes would be amazing. This one makes a great preemie model. We had fun making this and look forward to trying another one soon. Happy Last Day of Summer Vacation- boo hoo.

Duckling Embroidery Set & Duckling Romper!
I have been working on a darling vintage duckling set of embroideries. I kept adding more sizes and borders to it. Now it has 10 adorable designs!
This is a collage of some of the designs.
There are single ducklings, a set of 2 and borders of 3, 4, or 5 both horizontal and vertical.
These are all stitch-outs of various designs.
I made the bubble using the 3 vertical ducklings.
It is yellow chambray in size 3 months.
