doll & photo by Tanja: Watermellish Wecome to day #2 of my Blog-iversary Peg Doll Swap Wrap-up. Below you will find more wee folk (and charming critters) made by swap participants. To start off, Tanja (VIC, Australia) modeled her dolls after the character of Pelle from the book Pelle's New Suit. She wrote: I based my peg dolls on a favorite story in our house – Pelle's New Suit by Elsa Beskow. It's the story of a little boy, Pelle, whose clothing is becoming too small. He finds a solution to this problem by shearing his lamb and trading his labor (weeding gardens, feeding animals, running errands) to have his grandmothers card and spin the fleece. He dyes it blue himself, and again trades his labor to have his mother weave the yarn into cloth. Then the tailor sews him a new suit. The book ends with Pelle wearing his new blue suit and thanking the lamb for it. I painted the Pelle and made a simple lamb from a pipe-cleaner and carded wool. photo & dolls by Dee: Triskele Threads Dee (VIC, Australia) of Triskele Threads created these sweet autumn folk. I love the leaves and acorns embroidered on their gowns, and the distinct reminder that, as we in the Northern Hemisphere are turning towards Spring, our friends in the Southern Hemisphere are in the thick of Autumn! And here is more autumnal beauty from my darling friend Clare (ACT, Australia.) Clare calls these wonderful little folk "beechlings," and about them she wrote: Heath, Myrtle, Fagus and Tanglefoot are the common names given to two Tasmanian deciduous Gondwana cool temperate rainforest species that grow as either a shrub (in poor conditions) or tree (in sheltered, nutrient rich and warmer valleys) of Nothofagus cunninghamii and Nothofagus gunnii. As the weather becomes cooler, like all deciduous plants the leaves change colour as the plant begins its Winter domancy. The leaves are dark green to olive green becoming tan, tangerine, rust, orange coloured as the temperatures drop. They are slightly transparent when the sun filters through almost like living tissue paper. The leaves don't always fall in winter leaving an extremely colourful spash of orange across grey/green/olivine/white lichen encrusted boulders high on the exposed slopes in mountainous Tasmania (and some parts of Victoria). photo and dolls by Kelly: Happy Whimsical Hearts I grinned wildly when saw these peg dolls by Kelly (ACT, Australia.) Kelly's dolls are patterned after the characters Snugglepot and Cuddlepie from a book her mother read to her when she was "a little tacker." illustration from Snugglepot and Cuddlepie by May Gibbs Here is an illustration of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie (after which Kelly styled her dolls.) Are you grinning now, too? photo and dolls by Karen: Bridgit's Bell Karen (New Hampshire, USA) of Bridgit's Bell created this royal family of peg dolls. The details on these dolls are meticulous. photo and dolls by Karen: Bridgit's Bell I especially love how Karen used tiny punches to create the designs on their wee royal cloaks. photo & dolls by Lacey: Life as a Schoolhouse Lacey (NC, USA) of Life as a Schoolhouse has very cleverly used colored string to decorate the bodies of her peg folk. photo & dolls by Jen: SEWNnatural Here is a work-in-progress photo of matrioshka style peg dolls by Jen (Ontario, Canada) of SEWNnatural. I love their traditional red headscarves (and am always a sucker for gold embroidery...) photo & doll by Melissa: Wild Faerie Caps Melissa (FL, USA) of Wild Faerie Caps created this wee mousie peg child... photo & doll by Melissa: Wild Faerie Caps And also a golden version of a peg child critter -- this one seems rather leonine to me... photo & dolls by Amanda: By Hook and Thread For a swashbuckling, romantic tale (and close-up photos of these sweet dolls) you can visit Amanda (Nova Scotia, Canada) at her blog By Hook and Thread. photo & dolls by Amanda: By Hook and Thread Amanda also created this porcine trio -- you can read her hilarious version of the traditional piggy-tale here. photo & dolls by Kat: The Awakened Heart Kat (VIC, Australia) was inspired by the work of Mama Westwind when she created these love-bunnies. Do you see the pocket that Kat has added to the back of the cape to hold a jelly bean egg? Ingenious! photo & dolls by Megan: Giants, Wizards & Dweebs Last but not least are these snail folk by Megan (CA, USA) of Giants, Wizards & Dweebs. When I first saw this photo I did a happy dance to the tune of an idiotic little song, the lyrics of which went something like this -- oh my, oh my, oh, love, love, love! These peg dolls make me think of my toddler who has recently learned about snails and slugs. When he finds one, he likes to give it a gentle poke, which causes it to retract it's antennae. Then he waits patiently for it to put out the antennae again, and gives another little poke. Did I already mention how much I love these peg dolls? (oh, yeah, I guess I did...) To see all the peg dolls from this swap (and also peg dolls from the swap I hosted in 2011) you can have a look here. All the photos are now posted in the Peg Doll Gallery -- Cheers!
