Monster High Zombie Beauty Queen

I've been hoping to try my hand at customizing a Monster High doll for awhile. 

This is a CAM Ghost head, CAM werewolf body, and a wool felted wig made by me.

In addition she has a CAM green witch arm (not pictured). My little dog chewed it up so I upcyled it to a bloody stump.

It's hard to tell in the photo but her eyes are glittery voids.

Blythe Knits

I purchased a domain name finally. It is www.blytheknits.com.  I have my shop, 2 blogs and a page of my dolls.  There is another blog attached to it also....yeah, I know 3 blogs, what am I thinking?  That one is primarily shop announcements.

Another fun thing that I'm working on is Blythe Pattern Central, blythepatterncentral.weebly.com (link coming soon, having issues).

I'm accepting submissions for all 3 sizes of Blythe patterns in knitting, crochet, and sewing.  Right now I want only free patterns.  When submitting make sure that the designer name and original posting site is included.

Check it out! I will do my best to get the patterns up soon after submission.

Cousin Olivia

My Cousin Olivia arrived Friday.  Her skin tone is really different from any of my other Bltyhes. She is different from Can Can Cat even.

Olivia's stock clothing is adorable!

LOVE the red boots.

I feel very lucky to find her completely intact.

Yes, I think I need....

A Melomelomew!

Wild name to remember, but cute. She is the new Middie being released in August.  Yes, I need...

I have been cleaning out some dolly clothes and have finally decided to sell my custom clones.

Angelina left yesterday to head to her new home.  Nicki is next.  Sally may stay and become my daughter's doll.  But, I really would rather her leave too.

One day I believe Takara will make a brown(er) Blythe than Heather Sky and I will get her to replace my black girls.

A new girl should be arriving today!
