So here it is…the third picture in my knitwear series. I had abandoned it, but playing around with textures on the “Coat” series made gave me the confidence to have another crack at it and finally finish it. I’ve never drawn an older lady in my life, so this was a real challenge in more ways than one, but I learnt a lot from it.

Winter Bouquet

In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen

These are days of small harvests and anticipation. There is resonance for me with the season of Advent.

The wonders of winter light on strawberry guavas, lupine and broccoli. It is the season of light.

The church bouquet for the first Sunday of Advent.

Check the What I’m Planting Now page as I transplant and sow seeds for the cool season garden.

When two givers come together the connection is like magic.

You look after me and I look after you but we don’t drain each other we just grow.

Enchanted Seasons was a four doll collection released from 1994 - 1996, with each doll representing the different seasons.

The series commenced with Snow Princess, a doll in a white ballgown with fluffy accents - presumably to represent snow.

She was then followed by Spring Bouquet, which I think is my personal favourite of the collection. I like her multi-coloured dress, I like her basket accessory, I like her silly big hat. The one thing I'm not sure about is the plastic flower bouquet attached to the bodice of her dress. I think I would like the design much better if she was holding the bouquet instead.

Spring Bouquet was followed by Autumn Glory, which irrationally annoys me. Is that how the seasons go in Barbieland? Winter, Spring, Autumn?

Besides the fact that she annoys me by being out of order, I like her hat even more than Spring Bouquet, and I think her dress design is cool but not quite as nice. Overall very good look.

Lastly, the collection wrapped with Summer Splendor. I think the design is fine all around, but it doesn't blow me away. I like her parasol but I think it would be more interesting as a display piece if it was open.
