New Video: Adeline Doll Reveal!
In order to change her destiny and the barren, colorless world, ten-year-old Adeline will have to unleash the last bit of magic.
Adeline Picot, is the main protagonist from my Middle Grade Fantasy story, Adeline and the Mystic Berries.
I have talked about the book on and off, and, as you know, I am now working on re-editing the story before I continue querying to find a literary agent.
In the meantime, I couldn’t wait to begin crocheting up some of the characters from this story that is very near and dear to me. It was the first book I ever wrote, and the first time an idea struck in my head that stayed.
I had always thought being a writer would be a wonderful job to have, but prior to coming up with the idea for Adeline and the Mystic Berries, never thought I would ever have good enough ideas myself. She proved me wrong, and here we are.
My vision is to have a line of dolls from the book that other crocheters can make. I want readers who love the story, to be able to have their very own dolls from the book!
So, without further ado, here is a video I made for my Ink & Stitches YouTube Channel, introducing Adeline Picot to the world.

Adorable doll! Would love a tutorial on her…please! There are not many patterns out there for dolls that are tutorials and I am a crocheter who needs step by step guidance.
Thank you!

Excellent video! Adeline came out beautifully! I too enjoyed the background music. Looking forward to seeing future dolls from characters in the story! I can’t wait to buy the book when it gets published!

Wow! First, loved the way you introduced /revealed her showing her back first, then turning to the front. Background music was a great match. She’s precious and I can’t wait to see the future clothing pieces you make for her along with introducing other characters from your book! And Aspen couldn’t be cuter.

Thank you, Diane! I am so glad you like the way she and Aspen turned out. I can’t wait to crochet him as well. Things to look forward to!

She’s beautiful! I loved the needlefelted Aspen for her pocket, and the song you chose for the background of the video as well.

Thank you, Jennifer! You have to love Celtic music! I should have said he was sewn with felt. Aspen isn’t actually needle-felted. That is a craft I sadly don’t know how to do. Maybe someday 🙂
