I am seriously addicted to making these teeny tiny clothes.

 

When I was a kid, I spent hours making doll clothes (usually a lot of sarongs, tube tops and badly fitted dresses !). Somehow, growing up meant putting a lot of this creativity away in a box.

 

In 2007, I accidentally ran across the Blythe community online. It was like magic! It was amazing to see the creativity and enthusiasm that our Blythes bring out of us. I am so grateful for all the kind Blythe friends I have met. It really is like being a kid again.

 

Who is Penelope Blythe? She is my first dolly in a long, long, long time. (About 20 years!) Isn't it funny and miraculous how a doll can change you? It took this big-headed doll to shake some of the seriousness out of my life. She is my muse, my model, my confidante and my little friend.

In the beginning, I used to sell on etsy...later on, I sold my Blythe clothes directly. It is fun to get to know people that way. I guess my etsy shop is more of an archive now:

Enjoy!
