Susie & Sunnie

Meet Susie & Sunnie! 

Two best friends who love the outdoors!

Both dolls are made from the Featherby & Friends Little Sister Pattern 

& both dolls feature Suncatcher Craft Eyes!

For Susie, I finally used the Opaque Ivy Green eyes that I got a few months ago! I absolutely loved these eyes from the start but I took a long time deciding how to use them. What finally made up my mind was finding this fantastic brown yarn in my stash. I bought it many years ago, long before I started making dolls, & had completely forgotten about it. I am so happy I rediscovered it, because it is the perfect hair for my Ivy-Green-eyed Susie!

If you'd like to get the look of this lovely curly hair, I think it's Lion Brand Homespun, possibly in Barley? Like I said, I bought it years ago & the label is long gone.

Sunnie's hair, on the other hand, is definitely Caron Simply Soft in Autumn Maize. Although it is technically worsted weight this yarn is slightly thinner & oh so soft! With Susie's hair being so magnificent Sunnie had to have something special too!

For Sunnie's eyes I used more Suncatcher eyes, this time in Shimmer Aqua! They are a little brighter than the Opaque eyes with just a touch of sparkle.

Two more girls that have those fun Shimmer eyes are sisters, Willa & Wendie!

(they also have the same matching Swim Suits!)
