 This is happening...WOW

It's been a dream to go to Tokyo for so many years...

and now thanks to my little 12" plastic friend I like to take everywhere I go...

 

and a whole lotta wonderful friends and fellow Blythe fans in the Dolly Community....

it's happening...

(thanks to Linda Holland of Lounging Linda for this photo...)

WOO HOO!!!

I will be fitting lots of tiny Vintage Toys, Handmade Teds & Friends for Blythe, lace for dolls' dressmaking, vintage toy vehicles, wee antique books and more surprises in the suitcases!

 

 All details on tickets and event format are available on BlytheConFashionTour.com  

Please visit the event site for more details...

 BlytheCon Fashion Tour is a platform aims to provide a bridge between doll enthusiasts, doll artists and fashion designers! After our tour launched with great success in Hong Kong in September 2017, followed by the second station of Beijing China in October 2018, we are so glad to have our tour in Tokyo Japan this year!

I am excited to participate and honored to be among such a talented group of Vendors...

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!!

And a huge thanks in advance to all for making this opportunity possible... the organizers, the many artists with whom I work, my friends and most of all -- Rosanna De Bellis -- for the gift of my beloved Darcy -- my first custom Blythe -- that had me fall in love all over again with my dolls, teds and toys...

 ... #workhardplayhard  ...

LOL -- of course when your work is toys this is perhaps a bit easier!

Keep an eye on your email and the 

facebook insiders' group for more info and sneak peeks...

Led by my friend and talented artist, Diane Mall Sammarco of DM Blythe, all in attendance were treated to a feast of knowledge on how to begin the sanding and carving process, a yummy lunch, and a wonderful dose of support and encouragement from kindred spirits.

...a dolls' dressmaker...peek into her world

I totally adore Hilary Wagstaff and all that she creates...

 ...so what a true treat for me to dedicate my column to her in the latest issue of Where Women Create  

that's JUST hit the newsstands...

 Hilary has a 

finely tuned personal style... 

the clothing she creates for Blythe dolls shows that she's at the top of her craft -- with an aesthetic that makes her creations clearly identifiable as her art.  

Her story and style were a natural match for my 

"Business of the Studio" column...

 

...her wee fashions send me...

tiny embroidered details, finely fitting frocks.... but above all that...Hilary has a wonderful story of her business and how it happened...

how fab that she's shared her story!

A huge thanks to Editor in Chief, Jo Packham of Where Women Create for the opportunity to celebrate Hilary and her Moshi Moshi Studio 

in the new issue of the magazine....

 A peek at her studio space shows her empirical nature and her dedication to order, a love of vintage fineries,

and a nod to texture...

I was thrilled to be invited to photograph her studio space last year in Penarth, Wales.

 You can follow Hilary via her facebook page...HERE

and....you'll find a link 

to her etsy page there...

 she's on Instagram as @hilarywagstaff

Thanks Hilary for sharing your story and style! Your creations are fabulous, your business journey noteworthy and I am so grateful to know you through the wonderful Blythe community!
