On request from a friend, I embroidered a microscope as a gift for a microbiologist.

Mastered a new technique for beading miniature trees. I made a few charms and keychains for gifts.

Tried making some new crafts—dream catchers as gifts for friends and the girls’ teachers. I liked the result, and the recipients did too.

I tried sewing outfits for Barbie from ready-made sets. The patterns don’t quite fit, but the colors and prints are very cute. The clothes fit the yogas doll series.

Hooray! I finished this big project before Masha grew out of it. It’s funny, I started crocheting it as a dress for Paola, and then the idea came up to modify the pattern for children’s clothing. Until the very end of the work, I was figuring out how to finish the piece. But I like the result, and Masha does too.

Today I was at a report exhibition of children’s artwork. Masha went to classes at Creatielab, where she made two wonderful owls, a rocket, and a sign with her name. Although Masha didn’t go to the club with particular enjoyment, she is proud of her work.

Tried diamond painting today—added sparkle to the stars in Van Gogh’s painting.

Today I finished making dresses for our L.O.L. dolls and even little outfits for the smallest ones.

Crocheted a little something for a new doll—a fancy sundress with a puffy lace skirt.

Today my first BJD doll arrived—Pukifee Bonnie. I’ve been dreaming of a BJD doll for a long time, but they were out of our budget. But finally, I found a relatively inexpensive used doll with delivery to the Netherlands. The little one is very cute; the eyelashes are glued on. I actually swapped the wigs with my Toтner Jess. I like it better this way.
