Zazobouzi, les poupées/dolls  (gifts for Capucine and Soline)

The boy doll named Félix and Violette n° 2 (the one for my goddaughter's daughter) are waiting for padding.

Here is Félix and his pillow and duvet - Couette et oreiller chez Félix.

I'm back on making model dolls clothes to use my wool/fabric and have fun in creating clothes.

I had some white wool called "twisted "  and I remembered Mum made me kind of a puncho in a very special point : first you crochete then you weave it.

I wanted to try it so I made a square in double crochet then add red wool to make a shawl as it was successfull I decide to make a dress.

The second is made in vertical sens, you can use the last loop to close the back then you can do the bustier with half trebble in white,  at the end you only have to add the straps.












































Alphabet

The two first names of/for my grandchildren are finished.
It didn't work with the pinking chisels so I cut it in a simple way near the zigzag sewing.

J'ai abandonné l'idée de découper les bordures au ciseau cranté trop compliqué.

I have to do the all alphabet, next letters will be Y, S, V, E, L.   April score :   15/26
Then their Mum DD1 challenges me to do the letters to write her name too, as all my daughters got (due to their father) a double firstname, it will need 15 letters with 4 e, 3 l, 2 m-a-u, 1 r-n.

That means I'll be busy for many more GG post!

Très occupées par la fabrication de nouvelles lettres plus quelques doubles voire triple ma fille aînée m'ayant lancé le défi de pouvoir écrire son prénom composé !

Talking about alphabet of course brings me back to good memories of the Alphabet Club and to learm about what is a pangram : a phrase using the 26 letters of the alphabet :

(35 letters) : The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

Beaucoup de bon souvenirs me sont revenus liés aux articles de l'Alphabet Club et j'ai découvert à cette occasion ce qu'était un pangramme : une phrase contenant les 26 lettres de l'alphabet voici l'exemple que j'ai choisi pour illustrer ce petit complément d'information !

(32 lettres :   Juge, flambez l'exquis patchwork d'Yvon (merci à Thérèse Amiel, un pangramme contenant le mot patchwork c'est sympa pour un blog de brodeuse, on s'abstiendra de le flamber !).
