Hello Lissy

Hello Lissy, welcome to your new home.

I am Cissy, I am the big sister around here.

But, I think you should meet 

someone closer to your age.

BETSY?

Coming Cissy!...

What if she doesn't like to play with me?

Hello Lissy, I'm Betsy.  Would you like 

to have a tea party?

Yes, please!

Would you like some more sugar Ma'am?

Oh, yes please and some more cake!

Hehehee!

Bedtime girls!

OK!

Let's read Miss Suzy, it's my favorite.

"Every morning Miss Suzy made 

herself a bowl of acorn pudding..."

"...They chased her out of her little house. 

They broke her broom and threw out her acorn cups."

Those bad squirrels are SO mean!

Just wait, the little toy soldiers save the day.

reading, reading, reading...

Miss Suzy was overjoyed when she heard 

she could move back into the tall oak tree.

YAWNNN.....

Next morning....

Good morning girls, did you fall asleep

reading Miss Suzy?

Yes, I think we did!

Hehe!

Lissy and Betsy slept well, but I was hoping 

Molly would sew a couple 

simple things for Lissy, but she is at her 

friend's this week.

You know I can sew too Cissy!

Oh would you?

Whir, whir, whir whir...

Look at me Cissy!

You look lovely Lissy!

Marylou you are a wonder!

I made the same A-line knit in red as well.

I love it Marylou, just prefect.

This will be perfect for Spring.

I love my new dresses!

Thank you Marylou!

 The Savage Pea has a new addition to our family.

She is a Madame Alexander Amy doll from 

the "Little Women" series.

She is a 12" Lissy doll.

She comes from my friend Janet P who also sent

along a little wardrobe as well.

Want to see her outfits?

Here They Are!

We'll start with the dresses you've already seen.

This little yellow polka dot I actually

made for my 9" Patsyette dolls

but it looked SO cute on Lissy, 

I added a ruffle so Lissy could wear it.

This pink knit A-line is made from

an upcycled tee shirt.

I crocheted this sweater so she could

wear her dress for cooler weather.

This red A-line knit dress was also made from

an upcycled tee-shirt.

I crocheted this sweater for Betsy, but

Betsy was happy to share with Lissy.

NEXT 

These are the outfits Janet 

sent along with Lissy.

First is this MOST adorable

play suit sewn by Janet.

Janet made the bib removable and also

sent this handknit and embroidered sweater!!

How adorable is that?

I paired the play suit with a blouse and stockings

so Lissy can use this outfit in cooler weather too.

Janet also sent along this little swingy dress.

SO ADORABLE!!

I found these little slippers

in a drawer that didn't fit any of my dolls

 before Lissy. Aren't they perfect?

And, of course Lissy's  "Amy" outfit 

from the "Little Women" series.

Welcome to the Savage Pea Lissy!
