Dora the Explorer's little friend Alana stands big-eyed in a North Pole diorama. Snow is all around her, and Santa's sled, loaded with toys and packages, is right behind her where she stands in the snow. In front of Alana, we see a tiny train on a miniature train track which carries more packages toward Alana, who looks a lot like an elf in her handmade green Christmas dress made of a green felt bodice and a green floral cotton skirt with eyelet trim.

Isn’t that the cutest little elf dress in the video’s cover shot? I really enjoyed making that dress, and frankly, it was relatively straightforward to sew. On my difficulty scale, I’d give it about three flowers (pretty average), in terms of difficulty/easiness. Now this video demonstrates different ways to embellish a dress with ric rac, eyelet ruffles, lace, bias tape, and even a feather boa. … Continue reading Make #Christmas elf clothes w/free #sewing patterns @ ChellyWood.com #Dolls

I’ve been learning how to use my Camtasia software, and this video gave me an opportunity to experiment. I’m not 100% happy with the way the video turned out. Hopefully you’ll find it a little entertaining though. Truthfully, I like Windows Movie Maker better than Camtasia. It’s more user-friendly, but it doesn’t have as many bells and whistles as Camtasia. Not only that, but Windows … Continue reading What’s going on at the #NorthPole? Check out these little #dolls:

Here we see a Mattel Stacie doll giving Santa's sleigh a push in the snow. Behind her is a snowy hillside dotted with trees. Santa's sleigh is loaded with gifts, as is the tiny train in the foreground. Stacie wears an elf's hat with a Green Christmas-themed dress. the dress's bodice is made of green felt. The dress's skirt is made of holiday print green cotton fabric, and it's trimmed in eyelet. Her belt looks like Santa's with red ribbon and buckles. Her sleeves are made of lace.
