Goblins, Witches and Fairies....are coming!

The Goblins are coming, ha ha hee hee ho ho!   This is the time of year when I become a recluse and hit the spinning needle.  I happen to be one of those people who love jewel tones, rococo adornments and tons of layers so it should be no surprise that I am usually buried beneath tons of boxes of fabrics, buttons, twigs and other "things that go bump in the night"  right about now. 

I am in the process of designing my first complete Goblin costume and it all started after I sat down one day to begin writing a story I had been thinking about for several months.  I started writing and began designing almost simultaneously.  Yep...one thing inspired the other.  I made "Bloddwedd", the first of the Goblin hats and I must say it felt great to design fantasy hat that everyone loved.  I wasn't really sure how the doll world was going to accept this design for BJD's. They did!  On to the next three Goblin hats and then earlier this year I created "EALGA", my most elaborate design.  My facefook hits jumped to 1500 on the initial posting!!!  Awesome!!  It was all the reasurrance I needed to deside to go for the complete costume.  It is, to date, my favorite project,  Yes...I do say that about what ever it is I am currently working on,  but this time I think we're on a roll!  

I have long been a fan of mystery novels, sci-fi adventures, unique and creepy costumes and complicated design concepts.  So I am in my element 100% with this project. 

I am also working on new hats for my "Witches" and have been creating whimsical little hats that are inspired by my "Goblins".  I will keep you posted as to when they are about to make their "debut!"
