Isn't that an interesting title, probably brings a lot of diff thoughts in the reader's mind.
Well I'm talking about a doll which my friend Z made for my birthday.
Let me explain why its Mini Me. The doll is wearing the same kurta (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurta) ,leggings, peep toe footwear which I was wearing the last I met Z before my birthday. The hair is similar to mine. Talking about attention to details: she is holding a hoop and needle, wearing earrings like me and the cherry on the cake is the mole on the cheek ,similar to one on my face.
The moment I saw her , I couldn't believe the resemblance, not to forget the talent my friend has to replicate me in a crochet doll. This is the best handcrafted gift I have received till now.
Thank you Z for the love..I'm falling short of words to thank you.
Z will be celebrating her birthday on Sunday and I made few things for her, nothing as beautiful as the doll. Z is a coffee lover and I hope she likes the gifts.
I have been trying to make some knitted items and in the process learning new stitches. This cup cozy uses seed stitch which gives a good texture to the finished piece.
If you haven't guessed it until now, this post is my entry for Gifted Gorgeousness SAL for the month of April,run by our fav blog host Jo. For this SAL, we show what hand crafted gifts we made or received every month.
I have some more gifts to show , however I would save it for next month as I don't want to take attention away from my beautiful doll.
I hope everyone is having a good stitchy weekend in their corner of the world.
