HI guys! I just so happen to have two copies of the following books…..both are new and never read, I had bought for myself and also received as a present. Would anybody like to do a crafty book swap for either or both of these beauties?
Making Waldorf Dolls, by Maricristin Sealey, is the guru of dollmaking books. You will fall in love with this book and never need another. It is complete. It has patterns for all dolls and clothings, most easily followed, with beautiful hand drawn illustrations. Here are some dolls I have made with this book.
Second is the FaLaLaLa Felt Christmas Book….just beautiful! The most amazing gifts .. my children loved making these with me and putting them on our tree. Handmade ornaments are so wonderful. This book is also new never read. I bought it, then won it. Here are some of the ornaments we made last year.. I made many more and gave them away!
I would like to trade these books for relatively new crafty books that you may also have double copies of!
Don’t miss my latest GIVEAWAY! I will pick the winner on Saturday. x
I am keen on the Making Waldorf Dolls one. I could swap- Bend the Rules with Fabric (Amy Karol), Small Stash Sewing (Melissa Averinos), or More Softies…any of these appeal? Or Sandi Hendersons book, which I don’t have in front of me. Any of these appeal?

I’ve been eyeing the fa la la la felt book for a while on Amazon, and since I’ve been playing so much with felt (and getting better at it), it would be such a great book for me, I’d be very interested. Do you knit? Last winter I bought “Sock yarn. One-skein wonders” because I had started to knit, but it turns out I don’t have to patience to teach myself more than I already did and I don’t understand patterns one bit. The book is brand new other than me looking at the pics once when I bought it, I’ve never opened it since. I’d be totally willing to exchange with you :)
Thanks for stopping by my blog and for the lovely comment :) Have a great weekend!

I have a book called Weekend Knitting, by Melanie Falick. It has some great projects. I’d be happy to send it; I don’t need to trade.

I’ve been slowly going through your posts and had to comment on this one.
I LOVE the Making Waldorf Dolls book. I’ve had it for a year or so, and have made a couple of things from it, but there’s so much more I’d like to accomplish. It really is such a wonderful resource!
The Fa La La La Felt book I keep hearing about. Aren’t blogs helpful? It’s on my book depository wish list! So, yours is yet another recommendation. Your ornaments are so sweet. Something I think my boys and I could sit down to create too, one day.
Happy you have helped me to discover your enjoyable & interesting blog,

I’m not sure whether you still have the Waldorf Dolls book to trade? I have 2 Japanese sewing books with patterns for girls. The first is called Girly Style Wardrobe and is for girls sized 100-140cm and the second is Handmade of Mine and is for girls sized 90-120cm. Neither book has been used and I’m more than happy to trade either or both. Links to the covers of first book http://www.yesasia.com/global/girly-style-wardrobe/1004647573-0-0-0-en/info.html
