Sweater Girls

Thanks to the generosity of Ms. Leo, Heidi has a warm sweater to wear on her ski vacation.


Heidi and Bianca hope to spend a few days on the slopes before the semester starts up again.


I'm usually not lucky with contests so I was thrilled to win the sweater give away.  I especially like the snowflake detail on this sweater.


I made Bianca's sweater sometime in my teens.


It is the only sweater I have ever knitted and no-one has worn it for years because it is so hard to put on.


Bianca is thankful that Vanessa of Van's Doll Treasures shared her trick of covering dolls hands with saran wrap while dressing them in sweaters.  Otherwise she would not have gotten this modeling gig!

  1. Hello from Spain: the sweater fabric by Ms Leo is very nice. I won the raffle the other red sweater but still not got my gift to my house. Spain is far ... I really like your photos. The Bianca wears sweater is very nice too. When you were a child you sew very well. .. Keep in touch

    1. Hi Georgia Girl,

      The blue couch is from a My Scene play set. It was fun to get a chance to use it in a photo shoot.
