My Book
A captivating gang of 24 huggable, lovable creatures to sew—from classics like Margot, a topsy-turvy doll, and the button-jointed teddy bear Bjorn Bjornson, to irresistible Evelyn, a wool felt inchworm decked out in mod glasses and a kerchief, and Koji, a fiercely cute spiked softie monster. There’s something for everyone here—from kids to grown-ups and from beginning sewers to advanced dollmakers. Published by STC Craft, August, 2010.
looks great, I bet they are finally enjoying the nice chicago weather.
Congratulations, Hillary!
oh my gosh – how cute is that tale?!? so adorable! it made me smile during a rather glum work day!
I would love if you put the story into a blurb book or something we could order. My daughter LOVES Olive and Archie and she would love having a book with their story so she wouldn’t have to ask me to show her on the computer all the time.
I’m so excited about this! I think that I’ll need to make new Olive and Archie dolls first though because ours have gotten played with so,so much that they are starting to look a little worse for wear.
Hooray! We loved it! My five year old son was so happy to see the end of the story! Thanks for doing this! My kids love their dolls and I think I need to get working on more accessories! Congratulations!
So, I take it there will be pajama and nightgown patterns? Woohoo! Congratulations to Archie, Olive, and to you!
I’ve been wondering how it ended! The book idea is a good one. The kids would love it.
I love doll photo stories! Archie and Olive are too cute! Violet (my travel doll) very much approves!

I think it was a great ending. It was worth the wait!
I really liked your show/story. I really love you and Archie and Olive, Auntie Hillary. I love you all the days. Kisses. Hugs.
Love it! Definitely bring us more stories.
Congratulations on finishing the story!
I join in the requests for a book of Olive and Archie’s adventures.
I loved it! I’m sad it’s over, but I’m looking forward to what else is under your sleeve! *B
I seriously think this is the most lovely thing I have ever seen in my life …. I’m so totally and utterly jealous and in awe – its fantastic … I’m going to share it with everyone I know …

Hillary, your Olive and Archie story is so cute. It has to become a real book. I love all the outfits and the adventures. You never cease to amaze.
congratulations Hillary!! it could not be any cuter. really, really truely makes me want to learn how to use that sewing machine of mine.
(hey! how about a hand-sewing-for-fun make-along tale…)
Still a great idea, after all this time. They are terrific.

Congratulations- this is such a wonderful idea. The dolls super cute and the photographs are beautiful. I’d echo mama urchin and would love to see the story in a little book or postcard set maybe?
