A Trio of Midnight Christmas Mice

 

Aurea is the first of the midnight Christmas trio. Dressed in a glorious black Christmas fabric with falling spruce and metallic golden snowflakes called Christmas Shimmer by Stof. I simply fell in love with the fabric and teamed with golden silk it makes for a bold festive doll. I think maybe they will be Marmite Mice, people will love the black or not!
Each of the trio has black snowflake obsidian to their hearts with frankinsense in their stuffing for a warming scent. Finished with golden organza ribbon, black buttons and a sampler sachet in blacks, greys and gold beads with a little golden pine cone.

I must admit I love them and I am particularly taken with gold lining on the bodice of the girls just giving a golden edge to the dress. You will have to tell me what you think about black Christmas mice xx

A Trio of Winter Berry Mice

 

Just had to share this little trio, I had too much fun making them not to share. Juniper, Myrtle and Arden are a trio of Christmas mice dressed in a Lewis and Irene berry print from the New Forest Winter range. Red and deep red berries abound on a cream ground teamed with scarlet linen and white tulle. Juniper's wool felt cape is a rich scarlet lined with a Japanese yarn dye cotton with compliment Arden's plus fours and lined berry waistcoat. Each mouse has rose quartz to their heart with rose petals to their stuffing. All are finished with tiny buttons, leather shoes and a sampler sachet with a golden pine cone.

I am working a trio of midnight Christmas mice with a black and golden print sprinkled with pale grey spruce and cones. Really enjoying them. Have a lovely Sunday and my warmest wishes xx

Spindle, A Christmas Robin

 

New tiny bird pattern, just the same size as the little mice. Spindle is embroidered front and back with stitch to her wings also.
So sad, this is the last of this wonderful Christmas berry fabric by Lewis and Irene. I have just a 4 inch square left! I will also list a trio of Winter Berry mice with a cream ground later today - after having my fifth Covid jab.
Have a lovely weekend and my warmest wishes xx

Sylvain, A Frosted Forest Mouse

 

Sylvain and her companions are my Christmas indulgance. I must admit I do love silver and gold for Christmas. This trio of little mice are dressed in Makower Scandi Trees in two shade of grey and metallic gold. Teamed with a pewter Essex linen and yarn dyed Japanese cottons they make for a cool Christmas look I have called Frosted Forest.

Each mouse has a piece of quartz crystal to their heart, like a tiny shard of ice with lavender in their stuffing. Finished with golden organza ribbon and tiny leather shoes.

Crimson, A Winter Berry Mouse

 

Crimson (Sold now thank you) is one of the first Christmas mice of the season. A rich berry dress with a russet wool cape lined with Japanese yarn dye cotton. She is well wrapped up and ready for the chill of winter.
Each of these Winter Berry mice has citrine to their heart with frankensense and rose petals to their stuffing, finished with red leather shoes and lots of tiny red buttons. A very berry start to the Christmas season for me xx

Iolo, A Midnight Gentleman Mouse

 

Little Iolo is a gentleman midnight mouse, dressed in yarn dyed cottons and Essex linen with a Makower Grove print waistcoat. He has a piece of quartz to his heart with rose petals to his stuffing. A tiny leather tail peeps out of his plus fours and he is finished with tiny buttons, leather shoes and a sampler sachet. He was a joy to make xx

With stout shoes and striped legs, black tulle underskirts and a little black sampler sachet she is wrapped up warmly for anything the weeather can bring.
She has snowflake obsidian to her steady heart with rose petals for a gentle scent. Grey whiskers and a black leather tail she is a little sweetie all ready for blustery days xx
