Commisions on the way

Why I am commissioning dolly things when I have no money, I don't know. Perhaps it is because I'm so tight and it's so depressing that I need something to look forward to and nothing makes me happier than having dolly things made special for me. A vicious cycle, yes. And to make up for it, I will be having a Blythe Kingdom lot sale to get rid of some of the dolly clothes I have accumulated over the years. I will keep you posted but I'm pretty sure it will be up by this weekend.

The first commission on it's way is a set of two sweaters for my petites made by Mari aka Suedehead. I just love her knit dresses for full size Blythes. I have two and they are among my absolute favorite things. Her knit wear for petite Blythe is just unbelievable. I will never stop being amazed by tiny garments with so much detail. Her and Care aka Obsessively Stitching are just masters at this.

So I selected the yarn colors Mar had available and commissioned the pink hoody which is one I've seen and loved and wanted for a full sized Blythe for a while as well. I love the Orla Kiely leaf pattern and asked for that to be knit in the front of the turtle neck. I think it came out wonderful and I can't wait to see it!


I was also able to pin down the very talented and very busy Melacacia to commission a pair of her hauntingly beautiful Blythe Doll eye chips. I have admired them and her amazing Customs Blythe dolls for quite some time and since I will never be able to afford one of her dolls, I figured I might at least get a pair of her eye chips for the next Blythe doll I am able to custom.

I also happened upon these adorable sweater shirts made by Mari Batistello while surfing flickr a week ago and commissioned one of those as well.
