Godith, An Autumn Fairy Godmother

The start of the Autumn tones for me, this is Godith, a midnight fairy godmother. Dressed in Lockwood by Liberty Lawn, she has carnelian to her heart with rose petals to her stuffing and a haze of ginger hair. A hand painted and embroidered face with tiny gold coloured accents, she is ready for the falling leaves to come.

Peppermint, A Mint Mohair Mouse

 

This is little Peppermint, a mohair mouse in minty German Sparse Mohair and dressed in a vintage Liberty print tana lawn called Mitsi from 1910. She has mint to her stuffing and a moss agate crystal to her heart for Joy. I love her fuzzyness!

Bonbon, A Mohair Mouse in Pink

 

This is Bonbon a little mohair mouse in the palest pink sparse mohair. I really enjoy the mohair and love the results. Bonbon has a hand embroidered face with a copper bead for her eyes. She has a pink leather tail and ears and has a rose quartz crystal to her heart with rose petals in her stuffing.
The candy mice started off in cotton cloth but to my horror when made up the pink one looked like she was hairless or worse skinned! So had to have a rethink and I do love the mohair. The fabric is a Liberty print called Poppy and Daisy. Originally a woodblock print from 1910, one of the Liberty classic fabrics.

Nepte, In a Summer Meadow Dress

 

This is Nepte, a little grey mouse with a meadow embroidery to her skirt. Applique and buttons add to the detail of her skirt pattern on an up cycled chambray shirt fabric. Just an idea to extend embroidery onto the dress.
Liberty fabric is used on the applique and to her underskirt with lace to finish.
