Little Things

Saturday 16th December 2023

While cooking and wrapping and cleaning and decorating I am also making dolls clothes for my granddaughter’s Christmas present. I didn’t make the doll, just her outfit. And I probably need to go up a size as they are a little tight on her. And aforementioned granddaughter is far too young to be following my blog, so I won’t be spoiling her surprise.

It’s fiddly, and making up is so time consuming, sewing on buttons, sewing in ends, but the end product is lovely. I can kind of see why people enjoy dolls houses. I keep buying espresso cups because they are so so perfect! Wrens, tiny cakes, tiny presents, model trains, model traction engines. Most tiny things need a great deal of skill to do well. So here’s to all things miniature. Just can’t get a good link here to the books. But please buy, read, enjoy and have a lovely run up to Christmas. Joy in small packets, liberally sprinkled throughout the remaining days.

NEW BOOK: OUT 12TH AUGUST
David and Abigail's story as told by her handmaidens.
Radiant
In this compelling account of Abigail and David’s romance, author Kirsty A. Wilmott provides an in-depth look at the life and struggles of her characters. Surrounded by handmaidens, Abigail is both instigator of her destiny as well as victim of her circumstances – a woman who understands what is needed for her and her family to survive – and who fearlessly acts to protect them. Those closest to Abigail tell the heartachingly beautiful story of two lovers struggling under the pressures of a kingdom not yet established and the ensuing political pragmatism that ultimately tears them apart.
