A new little One, a little Bunny Girl













I'm pleased to present you my new creation 
Lolita
She has been created and designed by me : Chantal Giroux
Created from a soft and dense faux-fur fabric.
Standing just over 9.8 inches - 25 cm tall.

Her face is  finished with handpainted gentle shadings.


She has black glass eyes.

Lolita has 2 bows on her head and an antique lace collar around her neck.

She is so sweet and has a lot of love to give.
I'm sure she will find a Mommy very soon.
She comes from a smoke-free home.

The City where I was born

A friend of mine published a video about Kolwezi, the city where I was born and spent my childhood, until 17 years old.
I never went back there, but it stayed in my heart... And a lot of memories, all my family was there.., friends... We were like a family there, only 2550 people in the city, knowing each other very well.
I think that I had to show you that part of my life.

When I see the sun there...all the year...
Life was not very easy, but we were children and everything was pink, with no problems.

I understand now my choice to live in Canada, a large country with nature, animals and bears.
However, the sun is missing... But we have snow...


Here is the video

Work in progress

For the moment, I'm writing a new pattern... And here are the pictures I took yesterday night.
One bear is in progress and the other one is waiting to dry after dyeing with coffee.

Our lazy cat, Figaro

I could not wait to show you pictures of my big boy, Figaro....
I was preparing the blankets for laundry, when he decided to take a nap.
Guess what.... I waited he was awake to take the blankets...
