Even since I moved back to Birmingham area, I don't seem to make a lot of things for my Blythe dolls like when I was in London. I can't say I am busy but it seems there are more things to do in here than there =O
Anyway, I have got a knitting book for beginners with pattern which I bought in the diescount book shop in Grimsby after Christmas last year. I have been wanting to start knitting some of the patterns of the book but somehow I still found it confusing @0@"
After reading the pattern for a few times and I picked up the knitting needles to try to make and LOOK!!! <3 The pattern book only has the human size and luckily I roughly know how many stitches I need for a Blythe head so here we are!!! A brand new handmade sporty hat for Blythe -^_^- I am very happy with whatever it turns out as this is my very first trial of the pattern ^^
However, there are a few things that I need to keep it in mind when I make the next one. Firstly, even though the hat fits the doll but it still needs to be a bit smaller as the hat itself is a bit too loose for the doll, secondly, I will have to make a smaller brim and finally, I will have to remember to cut a piece of plastic or cardboard ready so I can put it inside the brim to make it straightener and harder as I forgot to put one in this time ^^"
Anyway, what do you think about this new little hat that I made for my dolls? =)
My boyfriend is in Cambridge doing a Summer job at the moment and he is staying in his sister's while he is doing his job. This weekend since his sister got to go to Hull for a wedding so I was invited to go to Cambridge for the weekend and kept my boyfriend's company (in a way lol) =P
Always love going to Cambridge <3 Although looking round all these beautiful colleges makes me feel bad as I should have studied hard when I was younger so I might have had a chance to study and stay in one of those colleges for three years v_v" But Cambridge is a very pretty place -^^-
Didn't expect the weather would turn out good for this afternoon =O My boyfriend went to Norwich to sort out something so I stayed in Cambridge while he was all the way in Norwich =P After a few times going there, I have finally *paid* to go inside the Chapel of King's College. Should have come during term time as the university is actually closed during Summer which means apart from the Chapel, you cannot go and enjoy the college =(
Anyway, always have a Blythe doll with me while I am going somewhere different =) This time, I took Ciara (Cinnamon Girl) with me and she was dressing a very Summery dress. The hat that she is wearing in the picture can be purchased at my shop if you are interested =)

Such a fun day today!!! Such a great Blythe meeting day too!! I took 4 girls with me for the meeting and they are Lavender (Mondrian/YSL), Altha (Art Attack), Louise (Love Mission) and Sandi (Samedi Marche) =) I tend to bring a few girls to go for meeting for some reasons and everytime I say to myself, 'I am not bringing more than 2' and it always ends up that I will bring more than 2 with me...
Anyway, the meeting was fabulous! Lovely people with lovely Blythe and seeing all different beautiful Blythe at once makes me all excited <3 There were 22 Blythe altogether and it got to be one of the best meetings I have ever been to -^^-
We spent nearly 6 hours together and we were lucky enough the weather stayed dry until we said goodbye to each other =) It was so much fun and I cannot wait until the next meeting comes up! =D As apperently most of them are having 1 or 2 new additions within their families! So I really look forwards to meeting up some of the new girls of theirs <3

There are a lot of places I would like to go in London, like Tower of London, Windsor Castle, Kensington Palace and the list shall go on. Told my boyfriend about all these places and he made me make one of the hardest decisions - I could only go to one within the list T^T It was such a tough decision but after I went to LegoLand, especially when I actually walked past the castle before I got on any shuttle bus, I decided to go to Windsor Castle for a day =)
Windsor is a pretty place, so is the castle itself really. The day we went was a beautiful day, as you can see from the picture. Got Acacia (White Magic Afternoon) with me this time and took some pictures of her there. It was a shame that everywhere inside the castle are photo-free zone which means photographs are not allowed so I could only took a few somewhere round the castle v_v
The castle has to be one of the prettiest castles I have ever been to. Absolutely love it there and the thing that I am most impressed is the Queen Mary's Doll House <3 Looking at that doll house makes me want to make my own on for the girls too =P (Of course it will never be as posh and nice as that doll house lol)
Unluckily The Queen wasn't in the castle during our visit =( Thought I might be able to see her standing behind the window to observe our visitors exploring her very own castle and by any chances, she might notice me then wave to me too =P

LegoLand, LegoLand, Legoland, Here I come LegoLand <3 I have been wanting to go to LegoLand for so long but my boyfriend kept saying it was a place for children >.< So when Valentine's day came this year, he asked me what I would want to have as a gift then I told him I wanted to go to LegoLand =D The tickets were expensive but then I found out that if you booked your tickets online would have 40% off as the original price, what is more, you don't have a fixed day to go! Of course there are days you can't go with that ticket but any other days you can just pop in and have fun!
I was looking forwards to a warmer weather for so long and the day has finally come!!! *0* The weather wasn't really hot but nice and my boyfriend and I had fun in there ^_^ We went on most of the rides and it's been a while since I last went to an theme park so I really enjoyed it there =)
Of course, there is a must-see thing in LegoLand - The MiniLand <3 I also took my Blythe Maomi (Mademoiselle Rosebud) with me for pitcures especially for the MiniLand -^^- It was such a fun day today and I hope I could go there again anytime in the future <3

Didn't expect to take any dolls out for pictures as the weather hasn't been really settled lately, like the forecast says it is going to rain but on the actual day it is not. Anyway, today I was just going to the Post Office but just before I left home, the sun was out with blue sky too so I thought, 'Why not taking a doll with me?'
When to Greenwich Park as soon as I finished everything in the Post Office. There were a lot of people and some people were looking at me funny when I was taking picture of Cocomi (Cute and Curious) 8-) Anyway, I had fun and I haven't taken Cocomi out for pictures for ages.
The only thing happened today is when I was going to take the last picture of her and her pull string was broken!!!! This is the first incident that ever happened to me ever since I had my first Blythe so I was shocked when it happened!! Will have to fix it soon otherwise it is so awkward to change her eyes =P

My boyfriend came to mine last weekend. Both of us didn't want to go anywhere else so we only stayed in. With just 1 computer in the room so when he went on there to play his new bought computer game, I got nothing much to do. Had been wanting to make a hat like this so over the weekend I thought I might just have a go at it to see what it looked like. Surprisingly it turned out quite funny =P The original design was without the leaf but Queenie, one of my best friends, said it would look nicer with a leaf on the top so I tried and there we are! they don't just look funny but cute at the same time <3 Absolutely love it <3<3
Then on Monday I had no Internet at all >3< If I have to choose 1 thing that I hate the most it is going to be calling to Call Centre, especially the Call Centre of the student village place! They seem to know even you are not happy about their service but you can't really do much about it since you have got no other options but taking their bad bad service >.<# I was mad at the Call Centre and it was such a long day as I had nothing to do and there was nothing to watch on telly so I started making hats again, in a way to release some of my anger while making the hats =P I quite like it when it turned out actually although the flowers themselves aren't big enough but I still like it =)
What do you think about all these new hats? =) If you are interested in the furity hats please come and visit my Esty shop by clicking HERE
Lately I am so into an anime calls 'Kuroshitsuji' -^^- I don't know if any of you have heard of this anime before but basically the story is based round London. Within the story, it mixes with a lot of true events like Jack the Ripper, the mystery of the Two Princes in the tower and it also mentioned about the great fire of London etc. In the last couple of episodes the anime was taken places in the Tower of London and also Tower Bridge too <3 However, the story was based in late 19th century so Tower bridge was still in its construction.
Tower bridge has always been one of my favourite places in London and I can just keep starring at it all day long with no bore-some ^_^ Because of the anime and I am super addicted to the voice of one of the main caracters - Sebastian Michaelis <3 Not just because the caracter is good looking but the voice is super sexy too <3<3 Couldn't resist to non-stop listening to the vocal's song sings under the name of Sebastian Michaelis and also go to Tower Bridge for a good aftenoon with Delta too =)
The weather as you can see from the picture is super nice! If you want to see more pictures of Delta by Tower Bridge where is one of the places that 'Kuroshitsuji' included, please click HERE
Apart from the pictures sharing, I have also attached the song that I have been so addictive to, hope you all like it too =)
The weather is getting warmer and warmer and I can just smell Summer is on its way!!! Hats are an accessory that you need over the year. I like wearing hats myself and I also like making them for my beloved Blythe dolls =)If you think you need a hat for Summer and also for Winter time, so does your Blythe doll haha =P
Here is a quick sharing of my little creation -^^- Lately I have been making some kind of fishman hats for Blythe with very colourful colours. Remember those little button thingy that I bought last week? I have used some of them to make another pattern of hats for Blythe doll too! I don't know if you all like those hats but I do hope you do =)

Veronica (V Smash) is a super special girl to me and also to my boyfriend because this is the girl that my boyfriend bought me 4 years ago and when the day that she was out from the box was the day I met my boyfriend -^^-
My boyfriend and I met on the internet really but we talked every day on the net and we got on really well. Something happened to me and it was the lowest point in my life so I was thinking to buy myself a doll to cheer myself up. He knew I liked Blythe and every so often I would show him my girls and talked about dolls as well (Even now nothing much has changed lol) There were 1 or 2 different Blythe dolls and I didn't know which one to choose so I asked him and he liked this one. I said I would think about it then few days later, he asked me if I'd got the doll yet and I said no since I was still thinking about it and he said he didn't think this one was as good and asked me to have a look round a bit more.
We were planning to meet 2 or 3 weeks after the dolly talk and not long after he asked me not to get the doll, we went on webcam and the first thing I saw was Veronica in the box *0* I was so surprised and shocked as I never thought he would just buy me the doll since in a way I was just a stranger to him! As soon as I deboxed her and he took me to Hull for a day with Veronica too -^^-
Today is Veronica's 4th Birthday which also means I have met my boyfriend for 4 years now. Her name was given by my boyfriend too since it was him who bought her to me =)
