Petunia says welcome to summer! Even though summer is still a week away, it is hot and dry like a perfect summer day.
Petunia is another doll based on the free Lily Sugar&Cream pattern, with jointed neck, and jointed legs courtesy of Joyce (aka Dutzie). The vivid magenta and lime green of my petunias and sweet-potato vine suggested the colors, and the mis-matched style was inspired by a doll I recently saw (at Michaels) called Little MissMatch.
There is nothing easier or sweeter than to sit down with a ball of yarn and a hook, and find that a few hours later you've created a companion of your very own.
As always, she is wonderful. I love seeing the new dolls you make and I especially love this one!
