Your little doll is so adorable...congrats on the magazine project!
Your new little grandson will be so cozy in the special booties and blanket
you created with love! How very wonderful to have another grandchild...such a blessing!
Helen,
The little red booties are so cute, and I admire your patience in knitting such a tiny little project for a tiny little one. The arrival of a new baby to the family is always a happy time.
Love the little doll in her red and white outfit. I have had a doll ready to stitch up for a while, maybe this will be my next project. Oh, so many WIPs, so little time. LOL!
Thank you for sharing.

Congratulations on your new grandson! It's such a special time for all of you. He'll look so dapper in those red and white booties you knitted.
The doll project is sweet, too. I like making gifts for people, but I've learned that some people don't really appreciate them. So sad. There's nothing like something made by hand.
Congratulations, Helen! How lovely to have a new grandchild. You made such beautiful booties for Louis. I enjoyed seeing the doll too, what a sweet little thing. How nice to make things for others. Hope you have a good week, take care.
Delighted to learn of the arrival of baby Louis - I bet he looks jolly handsome in those bootees! Love the little dolly too - lots of cheery red & white in the Philipps hosehold!
What a delightful week you've had. I love all your makes. I must get a copy of pretty patches. The doll is delightful my granddaughter would love her.
A little grandson, how wonderful. I shall buying the magazine so I can make your sweet little doll xx
I would love this doll. Do you know if this magazine is available in the US?
I love all your little baby makes Helen and once congratulations to you all, having a new baby in the family is wonderful!!
Your little dolly is so sweet and I'll look forward to more of them popping up here. :)
I'm sorry we won't see any more of your pretty pumpkins for a whole year.
Happy new week,
V x
I'm happy for you too and love those sweet little booties. Of course the doll is adorable! I love dolls like those you make and handmade is always best. Sweet hugs, Diane
What a sweet little doll Helen. You can see all the love your pour into your work..everything is so gorgeous. Welcome to the world to your new grandson, his little booties are just perfect for the chilly weather. Many congrats to all. Hugs xxx
As always, I've found such joy reading your post today. The little red booties are scrumptious for baby boy Louis.... how sweet.. and the cozy blanket will keep him snuggly warm. Love the red and white polka dot scissors too.. and red and white everything makes me smile! Little girl dolly is precious. I just love "making" too... most of the time I don't even know who I'm making it for, but I love doing it and it brings such pleasure, so I just keep on making. One of these days, I want to donate some things to foster homes or senior centers... something that may bring someone a little joy. Hugs.. Marilyn
Welcome, Louis! I am so happy for you and your family, Helen :) The booties and blanket are precious and I know you have made them with love...love is evident in all your work, and I want it to be evident in what I make as well. Happy Week, dear Helen! xx
Such a pretty doll, Helen. Your designs are always a little bit extra special. The bootees are so sweet, just right for Christmas Day and the blanket is beautiful. Does it come in adult sizes I wonder. I feel like snggling down now the hour has changed and the evenings are drawing in :-)
A beautiful & inspiring blogpost as always Helen. Congratulations on your new grandchild, they bring such joy.
Take care.
Love Carole from Rossendale xx

Congratulations to you and all the family; welcome baby Louis. Such beautiful made with love gifts for him, and us too. Joy and happiness. Love and hugs OXOX
Congratulations on the new addition to your family! The booties are so sweet and so is the blanket. Love your pink pumpkin and the doll...you'll have to make a boy doll for Louis! I wish I had just a wee bit of your creative genes! I'm going to look for that book now.
