I am back from our 2-week Scottish adventure. I have visited lots of amazing castles, fell in love with Edinburgh, even went ‘over the sea to Skye’! And, of course, visited quite a number of Outlander and North and South filming locations. Photos are coming soon. Here is the first one – Jamie and Claire coming […]

The dream of my life is about to come true – I am going to Scotland!! And, of course, I couldn’t go without dolls. Especially, since at least 2 of my favourite TV series have strong connections (and multiple locations!) with Scotland – North and South (2004) where Edinburgh played the part of fictional Milton, […]

Some more photos from our trip to Cardiff earlier this month! The main reason why we went there is because the fabulous Doctor Who Experience is closing down so we wanted to visit it again before it closes. So, here are some photos of my Tenth Doctor and Rose from there. Photos of the original […]

About 2 weeks ago I had a new trip to Cardiff again. Just love this city, even though it is very modern!! However, it has this wonderful spacious feel – it just creates happiness! So, we spent about 24 hours in Cardiff. Most of the time was spent on Cardiff Bay and in Doctor Who […]

The last of the three Tudor gowns I’ve made for American Girl dolls. I am definitely done with the Tudors for a while!! I have some other exciting plans. Stay tuned! This gown is modeled by my new customized doll – Arwen (she is Grace with #49 wig). It is very similar to the red […]

This Tudor gown was inspired by the actual gown that Catherine Howard, the 5th wife of Henry VIII wore. It is my own interpretation, of course. I love how it has turned out. It was made using my recent Tudor gown pattern for American Girl dolls and is the featured dress on the pattern cover. […]

Those who follow me on Instagram and Facebook page already know that I am currently working on a pattern for the Tenth Doctor’s suit and coat. I didn’t plan it but it kind of happened by itself when I started making this outfit for our upcoming trip to Cardiff to visit Doctor Who Experience (again!!) […]

Last year, as you might remember, I went to Cardiff to the Doctor Who Experience. I am extremely excited that we are going there again next month – to visit it before it closes down (which is a real – I mean, REAL!! – shame!). These are some photos from the last year’s visit. I […]

Meet another of my customized American Girl dolls – Maggie. She is Marie-Grace with blue eyes (not sure, whose, but they look Elizabeth’s to me, I think) and #61 wig. This doll was customized by Jodybo. She was the first customized doll that I bought. And that’s where my current obsession with customizing has started! I will […]

Another of my customized Bonnie & Pearl dolls – Catherine (named Erin in my doll family). She used to have the same sleepy blue eyes which I didn’t like. Because I absolutely adore the blue eyes / dark hair combination, I decided to give her dark blue fixed glass eyes. Hasn’t she become gorgeous?   […]

Recently I decided to customize quite a few of my dolls. And the first “victims” were two of my Bonnie and Pearl dolls. I like these dolls but didn’t like their blue sleepy eyes which reflected light like cat’s eyes. So, I decided to replace them with fixed glass eyes. I had to cut their […]

I have just released a new PDF knitting pattern. It is now available in my Etsy shop.

The hat and the scarf […]

Recently I’ve got hooked on customized American Girl dolls. Somehow I’ve got bored with standard AG dolls and wanted something different, unique. So, I bought my first one (though I won’t show her today). And then some time later I bought two more at the same time. All of them were customized by Jodybo. And […]

Design includes: Realistic scale Cable pattern Owl knitting chart Line-by-line instructions Embroidery instructions Three sleeve lengths Snap or zip closure options […]

Today is Christmas Eve. And one of the things that come to my mind is this famous scene from Season 1 of Poldark. The scene where Demelza is asked to sing a song and she sings beautifully… I’d a pluck a fair rose for my love I’d a pluck a red rose blowin’ Love’s in […]

This week I released my first knitting pattern. More patterns are coming, of course. But for the moment here are some photos I took of the Highlands cowls modelled on different types of dolls – just to show how many dolls it actually fits! The pattern started with this cowl that I had knitted for […]

Some quite overdue photos. In April we had a short trip to South Wales. I took my Rose Tyler (customized A Girl for All Time Matilda) to visit Caerphilly Castle which was built in the 13th century. It was quite appropriate, as it turned out, because it is one of the Doctor Who filming locations!! […]

I have been very quiet this summer. That was because I did quite a lot of travelling. Here are some quick sneak peeks. And I will eventually show all of the photos I took separately. This was the first trip – to Cornwall, the Poldark country where I took my Ross and Demelza Poldark. This […]

So, as I mentioned before, in April we had a lovely holiday break in Wales. Here are some of the photos I took there, despite the fact that I still haven’t had a chance to introduce this male doll properly. The Tenth Doctor is a customized Prince Stephan by Carpatina, and Rose Tyler is a […]

Another of my recent projects – the making of the main characters of the new TV series Poldark. I started with Demelza. She is Clementine by A Girl for All Time. I just changed her wig to be more like Demelza in the film. I was thinking of changing her eyes (to make them blue) […]

I have been insanely busy in the last month – with the end of the school year and preparations for the summer trips. So, although I haven’t posted anything for a while, I have quite a few sets of photos to show and also a number of outfits ready to be taken out for photo […]

Nearly three weeks ago we had a lovely holiday break in Bath. I love this city. This was my second visit there and we were very lucky with the weather and the fact that we stayed in the centre on the city, making it easier to walk around. Obviously, my Lizzy Bennet – in full […]

Recently I’ve suddenly felt a burning desire to make a Regency outfit for an A Girl for All Time doll. The opportunity came in a shape of our upcoming trip to Jane Austen’s hometown – Bath. So, I just had to take a Regency girl with me! I started with a dress, then made a […]

I have recently got hooked on Doctor Who – who would have thought!! It started from my love for Outlander (everyone knows that Diana Gabaldon got her inspiration for Outlander from one of the first Doctor Who episodes from the 1960s). While I couldn’t find that very episode (Highlander) as I believe it is one […]
