A beautiful sunny day yesterday gave me the perfect opportunity to take a quick snap (or two) - seen here hanging on my magnolia stellata! Whilst I had most of Blossom's measurements, I'm not privy to them all (a girl's gotta keep her modesty after all), so the dress will definitely be long enough but it might be a little large around the middle, so all that is left is to thread a pretty satin sash around the waist which can be tied in a pretty bow to fit. And with spring on it's way (the first primrose is out in the garden), I thought I'd add some tiny blossom...
...and what doll's dress would be complete without a birds eye button to fasten...
I only hope Blossom likes her new dress, and more to the point, I hope the Red Nose Day Dolls raise a smile and heap of cash for Comic Relief - keep an eye on the Comic Relief auction website (and the Red Nose Day Dolls Twitter and Facebook pages to see all of the other gorgeous handmade accessories being created). Every time I make a little crochet dress, I dream about making a 'grown up' version one day, definitely a project for the future! xxx

Beautiful. I love the combination of crochet with the little net underskirt. What a fabulous idea to raise money.
