This crochet cat is fun: there are squeakers in its tail, legs and ears. And the filling is partly from a plastic bags which makes noise too. The toy has two layers, inner lay is from elastic fabric, so the stuffing can't be pulled out.

Cornflower bag
A blue bloom embroidery have always been in my wish list. It would probably took me ages to decorate a bag with a cross stitching. So here's my shortcut: a felt applique based on a needlepoint pattern. To learn cross stitching is still in my plans though.

Petite runway: Inspired by Michael Kors
The dress from Michael Kors resort collection was described in a retail store as a "fabulous retro-inspired dress with flowery crochet trims, long bell sleeves and flared hem ... ".
It reminds me of 60-s and 70-s crochet fashion.

Crochet summer top
This Barbie's top is based on a crochet pattern that goes online as "cosmo". It became popular among lace makers after an appearance of a white crochet dress on a "Cosmopolitan" cover. I also was tempted to crochet a similar summer frock (which used to be my favorite). This airy design is perfect for summer outfits and it seems never to be out of date. You can see pineapple motifs in resort collections every year. It was interesting to repeat something like it for a Barbie.
Petite runway: Inspired by Stella McCartney
This bohemian look for Barbie silkstone was inspired by Stella's McCartney crocheted Daisy dress. I love its asymmetric skirt with a train on the side. It reminds a lot of Edwardian Irish lace gowns. The daisy motif is popular in crochet so i had no trouble to find a similar pattern. It is handmade from cotton yarn (top lace) and nylon knit fabric (lining). The dress fits other fashion dolls.
