Spring is in the air which means its almost Miniatura time again !

It's almost time for the first of the big Spring shows here in the U.K. so as always it's a busy time .

As soon as the first snowdrops and crocus start to bloom  then you know I will  be spending long hours in the shed working on new dolls. 

It's a real hive of industry in there with doll parts waiting to be assembled and fabrics waiting to be cut and sewn into tiny costumes !

These two witches are ready and can't wait for the show ! 

I just wish one of them could cast a spell to tidy up my messy shed . 

As you can see one has been helping me with the costuming ..... she has done a wonderful job darning her stocking ! Now if the other can just sweep her broom across the floor it would be a real help !

Miniatura will be held at Birmingham NEC 2nd and 3rd of April .

I will have a lovely selection of new characters there and I hope there will be something for everyone . There will be witches , some Downton Abbey inspired characters , some modern characters and even some pumpkin people .

  I hope you can come along to the show , it's well worth a visit.

I will preview a few more characters here before the show so watch out for those.
