A rest day



 

Yesterday I had my hips all out back again. Only had them done on Friday and they were out again 
My wonderful myotherapist fitted me in as she knew I was going away. And wanted me to be pain free 
So today I rested and allowed them to just get used to their right place. 
I can't just not do anything so I decided I'd try my first amigurami 
Think that's how it's spelt. Anyway I decided Melody would love a mermaid. 
So I you tubed a doll and followed along for the head. But decided I didn't like the bloody. So found a pattern for the body 
And combined it with my head. Then I didn't like either of the tails. So I free styled the tail 
 

And pretty much free styled the rest of her as well 
I still have they eyes and mouth to embroider but she is done 
I used all left over yarn   So she is free! 
Recognise the hair?  Yup the last of that Caron cake I got as mill ends  
She's not perfect. Her bikini top is lopsided just to start you off lol 
But I'm sure Melody will love her 
So even though I rested all day. It wasn't a wasted day 
Only four more sleeps till we head off 
See ya xxx

  2. Having a bit of that pain myself, sorry.
    I think Melody will love the doll, once she knows what a mermaid is! So cute! You are just so creative, Angela.

  4. Good for you Angela, and taking your mind away by focusing on creating that sweet little mermaid will allow your body to relax and benefit from the treatment.
