Posh Birthday Party Frocks!

First of the posh party frocks. I will start listing them on Granny Madge's birthday, Wednesday 15th October around 5-6pm UK time. My girls are all excited abour Granny Madge coming over, they hope you like what we have created :D

The strawberry shortcake dolls are having some fun with the mini madge hats. They get up to mischief when I am busy :D

I am working on some posh party frocks that will be listed next week complete with matching Granny Madge jackets and hats (so that your dollies don't get cold on the way to the party!)

This is to celebrate Granny Madge's 88th Birthday on the 15th October. She will be coming over to visit that day and the girls need to look smart for the party! Madge also wants to find out where all her lovely things go to and what an 'etsy' shop looks like, so I am going to show her all the lovely photos you have all done and my little 'shop' on the net :D

Meanwhile enjoy the antics of my 'little' girls!!

More hats!!

More hats going on etsy :D

At Last!

Going to start listing some Mini Madge hats today. Poppy is really enjoying doing some modelling! She may get attached to some of these super cute little creations though :D

It's done!

After days of sorting, folding, labelling etc etc, my little studio is done! I am so happy to have this space I could do a little dance :D Production is back up to speed again so look out for some Polly (and Madge) goodness!!!

Studio is nearly done!

Nearly there with the room. I didn't realise how much stuff I had!!! The girls are all settled in and I am nearly ready to start production again. I am a bit late with listing the mini madge hats so it will probably be this week now. I just have to organise my fabric and buttons and I'm done! Here is a pic just before the carpet fitter came....

New studio!!

Sorry if anyone was waiting for me to list the mini madge hats but I unexpectedly had to finish painting my studio/craft room as the carpet fitters are coming today!! I am so excited about having my own room but my house is a mess with yarn, fabric, buttons , ribbon, lace etc etc!! I will hopefully be back to normal by Sunday and able to start listing them. Having my studio is a dream come true and I am like a kid with a new toy! My girls are all packing up their clothes ready for the move into Polly's little paradise :D I'm off now to organise all my sewing threads!

Wonderfall Mini Madge Bouquet!

Here is the latest batch from the Granny Madge factory! She now has a little helper called codbags who has transformed the hats into magical morsels of loveliness!! These hats fit Lati yellow or vintage Strawberry Shortcake dolls and will be listed on Friday 3rd October in my etsy shop www.polly.etsy.com They sell for $6.50 each. I will post some pictures of the girls modelling some later this week.

More pics of Halloween set

Picture showing some detail of the dress in the Black Widow set. The tarantula might find its way in the set too!! Underneath the torn strips of black fabric on the skirt part there is black lace. There is a black lace bow at the back of the dress. As with Dem Bones dress it is very long so it can be trailed on the floor for effect. More details of Dem Bones coming later.

Halloween Set Black Widow

The black widow is a deadly creature! Here she is in all her finery. Black layered dress with black crystal cross, silky tassel and chains and a spider perched on her chest! Comes with fine net cape and crochet hat with black jet like beads on the corners, lace veil and rosettes at the temples with 'rubys' in the centres. Price will be $70 and will be listed along with Dem Bones on Wednesday 1sy October at 6pm UK time. email me for any other details janepierrepont@aol.com. Watch out!!!

Halloween set....Dem Bones

Here is the first set for Halloween. Called 'Dem Bones' it has 5 little skeletons all around the skirt of the dress and 'rubys' in between them. The skirt is layered bone coloured cotton and lace and net. The top of the dress has a chain hanging from the shoulders. The Hat has bones and net and beads and a 'ruby'. The dress is extra long for dramatic effect and can be trailed all over the floor to sweep the cobwebs as she walks. We hope you enjoy our creation, it will be in the shop on Wednesday 1st October at 6pm UK time. The price will be $70 + shipping. There will only be 2 halloween sets from Miss Polly as she has put lots of time into them and wanted them to be very special. They will not be repeated again.

Any questions about the set please email janepierrepont@aol.com

ENJOY!

Mini Madge Hats!!

Miss Polly's Fairy Grandmother Madge has been VERY busy and with the help of her little elf Codbags has made a wonderful batch of hats for your Lati babies or Strawberry Shortcake vintage dolls. Poppy wanted to tempt you with a sneak preview. We have a rainbow of colours and some really funky designs. All are $6.50 and will be in the shop next week. More pics will be around very soon and details of listing times.

Shop update

Well the Highland Fling sets went well, only one left!!
Miss Polly is really busy now finishing off the two Special Halloween sets that will be coming next week. Its mayhem in the studio, bits of fabric and yarn and strange pastic things!!
If anyone wants to be on the mailing list to get info on shop updates please send an email to
janepierrepont@aol.com and she will pass your details onto Miss Polly :D

Highland Fling Sets

This Friday around 5pm UK time Miss Polly will be listing her Highland Fling sets. She will be doing a little scottish dance while she works (it helps to dance!!) and eating some shortbread. Maybe later she can have a tot of lovely scottish whisky too!!!

Back Again!!!

Here I am, fresh from my holiday with lots of ideas as usual. I decided to pick up my blog as a way of informing all my friends and etsy customers of what I am up to. From now on I will be blogging as Miss Polly (my creative alter ego) and will tell you what she gets up to and what new stuff she has in the pipeline. Most photos will still be on flickr but information will be on here. I will introduce you to Miss Polly later this week, I hope you enjoy getting to know her!

Green and purple sets

Newest little designs going on etsy later. My moof doll Angel really liked the green one! I have so many ideas in my head my hands can't work quick enough.

Luxury Collection.

This is the baby I was working on all week using (full price!) yarn in 100 per cent pure silk (gorgeous to crochet with!) and sequin scattered yarn. Sold the dress straight away, much to the dismay of Teagan who had really taken a shine to it as you can see in the pics! I usually try to recycle old yarn and fabric as I like the vintagey feel but I just wanted to create something special. I think it's lovely....wish I could make one to fit me

New dollies and clothes

Here are the newest additions to the Polly family. My moof doll I have called Angel as she looks like she comes from somewhere else! The Strawberry shortcake dolls are all washed and their hair is drying while I am busy making cool little outfits for them. Also on the crochet hook is a very luxurious outfit for Blythe (silk, lurex and sequins) I will post pics when it is finished!

I'm back!

Hi there,
I'm back and busy again. It's been a foul year so far and my brain has taken a battering. But I'm back and making stuff like crazy. Will be posting very soon.
