More Knits

 Fall is the time for knits, so Geillis is modeling our newest "knit" from Beachgirlnikita on Etsy. I knitted the arm warmers when I was first learning.........I need to do some newer ones that are a little less bulky. Skirt is from Period Threads and top is Iple.

As much as I like the newer Iple hands, I still love the old ones as well. They are good for holding things like this basket.

Time for Knits

 There was a chill to the air this morning and it felt like fall, so time to break out some of the knits. I thought this one matched well with Bree's outfit, so she got to be my model. I need to make her some arm warmers in a pumpkin or blue shade.

Also wanted to take the chance to play with the new camera some more and try and figure out some of the manual features. There's a learning curve, but I'm getting there.

The macro shots are a bit better than the ones I took yesterday anyway.

I just love how Bree's face up turned out. I have been tempted to get a larger version of her, but then think why should I do that when I love this version so much.

Together Time

Haven't had my big versions of Jamie and Claire out for a while, and just felt like spending a bit of time with them today, so took them outside for some new photos.

They are much easier to manage together outside if I pose them laying down together on a blanket rather than standing them up. I can put her on a stand, as it doesn't show under her skirts, but I don't like to use a stand for him outside and I don't like to see the stands in my photos.

I know that is one reason I've been more drawn to the smaller versions as of late (at least for photographing)................much easier to manage when doing group shots.

There is something really special about these 2 though.
