Hello friends,
Over the weekend I made this sweet little Tilda Skating Angel doll…. and I’m besotted with her cuteness.
She’s actually a combination of two Tilda dolls; Skating Angel and Chalet Girls.
The doll is the same pattern for both designs, but I incorporated the little knitted sweater from the Chalet Girls and the ear muffs and skates from the Skating Angel to make this Winter Angel.
Now that Tilda are no longer producing their gorgeous paper collections and embellishments, the items that I still have in my craft box are extra precious.
For this doll I used a beautiful embroidered button from the Sweet Christmas collection on her sweater and a pair of Tilda angel wings.
Those metal skates were my very last set, but I’m pretty sure I could make something similar myself.
I think in 2018 I’m going to have to source new supplies that have the same whimsical look of the now retired Tilda collections.
The pattern for this doll is out of the Tilda’s Winter Delights book. It’s a book I use over and over again (like most of my Tilda books). You can see all the Tilda books I use, listed on my page ‘Shop My Bookshelf’.
So today, I thought I’d gift one of these Tilda’s Winter Delights books and a few other Tilda pieces to one of my readers.
Tilda Book Giveaway
It’s Christmas, so let’s make this super easy…. if you’d like to be in the draw to win this Tilda gift package, simply leave a comment in the ‘Comment’s’ section below. Please make sure you have an email address listed. I’ll draw a winner next Wednesday 6th December, 2017.

Hugs

Love all things Tilda and this little lady melts my heart. Thank you for the inspiration ❄️
Merci de tous vos partages, cet ange est splendide … J’aime beaucoup ce que vous faites … 😉
Your winter Angel is a cutie! Love the Tilda books & often sit with a cuppa flicking through the pages to be inspired by the gorgeous styling … But I don’t have this book! It may have to go on my wish list. :0) Bear Hugs! KRIS xx
Que maravilla, a mi me encanta el mundo de Tilda en todos sus diseños, enhorabuena , tengo algunas Tildas, pero esta ya la tengo en mi retina, preciosa !!! Un besi ?
Kerryanne, your skill and perfection in crafting are amazing. So inspiring!
This Winter Angel is delightful.
Oh, she is just the sweetest little angel. I love how you have her posed! Thank you for your generosity in giving away a Tilda book and goodies! What a blessing that will be to someone!!
My dear friend and I are quite gaga over the Tilda dolls. This one is over the top. Thank you for sharing your talent with us and giving us such pleasure. You insoire us with your dolls!

I love these and ALL Tilda dolls! I have crocheted one but would love to have one like yours.
Oh, now I would love to make a winter Tilda! She is adorable.
What a sweet angel!! I’ve always admired the Tilda dolls and books, plus the fabric, paper and embellishments but was never able to acquire much since I live in the States.
Thank you for the giveaway.
Kathy Lorenzini from Colorado
I love her!!!! I love your blog. Thank you.
Beautiful
A beautiful Tilda insprired doll!! Very creative use of several materials. I’m a Tilda follower, however, her fabric is not readily available to me. Winter Delights would be a great addition to my crafting collection. Thank you.
She is just beautiful!! I do hope you are able to source some similar products next year as I would be keen to purchase some from you. Thanks for the chance to enter this amazing giveaway.
So generous as always.
Your Angel is like a “Breathe from Heaven” she is so beautiful……………….Thank you for sharing her with us ; Just adds to our Christmas “magic” the Spirit of Christmas…Jesus is the Reason……………………..Merry Christmas
Love Tilda! Would be SO excited to win this!
OH my! What a beautiful little girl! She looks so serene and precious. Thank you for sharing this little angel with all of us 🙂
Merry Christmas!

Tilda dolls are beautiful, and I love them all. Thank you for the opportunity to win a book. I’ll keep my fingers crossed!

What a beautiful doll! Thank you so much for offering to one of us!
You are so talented – I love them all. I know you could make those skates!! 🙂 Thank you for giving all of us the opportunity to win.
Such a generous giveaway ……….. Good Luck everyone!
Your Tilda is so cute. Love her books. I get a lot of inspiration from them.
She’s adorable! i love her little tights; precious.
It just doesn’t get better than Tilda. I’ve made several of her angels for Christmas gifts and no one ever puts them away! ?
Isn’t that a doggoned shame when something you love and make good use of is discontinued? I’ll just bet you’ll figure out a way to make your own skates. Keeping my fingers crossed you have luck finding another source for embellishments and all you need.
Not only extremely talented but so generous of heart to give some of your goodies away. Want to thank you for the kind gesture.
Amazes me how you were able to make a wonderful skating angel over the weekend, such talent. She is so special, a creation from the heart. That button on her sweater is so special.
Yesterday I went out to shed to dig for Christmas decorations and bits to make some ornaments. Have whole box yet to go thru but thought it smarter not to bring too much into house at once. Doing little bit of decorating and creating as the day goes by as impulses hit me. Spend too much time trying to remember where I put things. Ah well it will all fall into place when it’s meant to, fretting won’t change that. If this is all I learned in 77 yrs. guess am lucky?
Even had Mr. Furry spray painting some boards, little wood plaques for ornaments. Keep trying to organize supplies as I use to keep everything from becoming big messy jumble, not easy for me, am not an organized by nature..
Hope you have a splendid week Kerryanne. .
I love your mixing of two dolls. I can’t believe you made this in a weekend! I love Tilda ever since she started. I wish it was easier to get her fabrics. I would love to win!
Hi, Kerryanne!! LOVE the Angel Skater. Your personal touches make your creations so unique (the embroidery on the sweater is so wonderful, and tiny too!). It makes me want to quit my day job and go back to creating angels (I used to create museum-quality folk angels for shops years ago). I think my pocketbook wouldn’t be as full, but I have a feeling my heart and soul would be. I love looking forward to seeing what you’ve created. For me, sometimes it is enough to see another’s beauty and be joyful in the making of it. Your making makes us all happy (thank you!)!! I’ve had “Winter Delights” on my wish list for some time, hoping to buy it this year. Thanks for the opportunity to win a copy. So generous of you!!
Your angel is just beautiful, Kerryanne. I haven’t made a Tilda doll before. One day I will. Thank you for the lovely giveaway.
Oh boy so nice I love this one but I love white
I really need another Tilda book yah yippee
[email protected]
What a beautiful doll. She is gorgeous!
Oh Kerryanne, she is adorable. Such a sweet Winter make.
What a generous offer to give away a book and Tilda goodies – that really will be a super Christmas gift for the lucky winner.
Your beautiful Winter Skating Angel has her very own post over on my blog as I wanted to share your lovely creation.

This is the most adorable Tilda creation you’ve ever made. I love it! I can’t make Tilda’s dolls at all. The stuffing always looks wrong. You did a fantastic job!

Hi Kerryanne,
this lovely angel is beautiful, and how clever of you to combine elements from two Tilda patterns. I have been too apprehensive to do this, but I shall over the Christmas break.
Regards,, Marian
She is just adorable. I would love for her to come visit and give her a hug.❤
Lovely work, I have admired your Stitching adventures for several years but have never made any Tilda Dolls.
I particularly like the Bunny and would love to win a book, it will just get me started. Happy Christmas and New Year
I feel the time has come to produce some of Tilda’s creations. You are very inspiring.
Oh my gosh! I love this skating Angel! I’ve been following your blog forever and just tonight, signed up to receive your Newsletter as well. I would be in heaven if I were to win your giveaway! I tried to Pin the Skating Angel on Pinterest, but had to make it a board instead of a pin. I hope that’s ok. Crossing my fingers! Love everything you do!

Oh! you beautiful doll, you great,sweet beautiful doll. Just started collecting Tones books but haven’t got this one. Would love to have it in my collection. Thanks
I have quite a few Tilda Books but not Winter Delights. About a month ago I ordered a couple more from your Favorites list. Your doll is stunning. Thanks for a chance to win.
Oh kerryanne, she’s gorgeous and so is your “home-y” Christmas decorating. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
She’s so sweet! I love all of her little wintry details! Just darling!
I love the skating angel doll you created. She is lovely. I really enjoy getting your newsletter each week. There are so many things that I want to make. I like decorating with angels, and skates, at Christmas, so she is perfect. Thank you for sharing all of your ideas. It helps me to come up with some of my own. Have a lovely December, and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I love your little skating angel doll. She’s the sweetest. And it’s so sweet of you to be willing to give her away. I’d be delighted to have her come live with me. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and creations.
You can almost hear the scraping of her skates on the crisp clean ice! What a beautiful addition to a family Tilda would make!!
Tilda dolls are special. Each personality shines through despite following a similar creative path. They seem to embue the heart of the artist who created them.Thanks for sharing your talent and ideas.
I must say; You are one talented person. Your Tilda dolls are beautiful; right down to the smallest detail. Tilda would have a very spe4cial place in my home for her if I should happen to win.
Thank you for this giveaway opportunity
Very cute! Love all the Tilda stuff …the ice skates are soooo adorable as well as that beautiful button!
What a joy to tour your home! I appreciate your talent and willingness to share with everyone!
Shame on the subscriber who called you homely, if it was meant negatively! I suppose there has to be a “negative Nelly” in everyone’s life!

I love Tilda!! This is a beautiful version. Thanks as always for your generous sharing of your talents and resources!!
What a clever combination. i love tilda. I haven’t tried to maker her yet, but i have attempted other Tone Finanger crafts. They are wonderful. Thank you very much for sharing your lovely talents and fabulous resources.!
Hi! I love all things Tilda too! My house is very much like yours with lots of white and neutral walls with pops of colour at the holiday season. Its not a big fancy house but it is home and l love it! I love to sew and create and stamp and have recently created a craft room from a bedroom when my daughter moved out and got married. It is my happy place after a long hard day at work. Your beautiful angel Tilda would look perfect in my home! Your are so talented and l love getting your weekly emails from you. You inspire me!
Oh wow that little sweetie caught my eye in your previous posts and I have been imagining her in amongst my Christmas decorations. Thank you for your generosity and may God bless you and your richly.
I love your blog! Tilda is a beauty and I would love to win her!
This is such a beautiful doll. I really love all of your work. She would be such a great addition in my shabby chic inspired apartment.
Beautiful angel. I have a few Tilda books but haven’t made anything from them yet. New to your blog. Thanks for the giveaway.
This is so beautiful — another wonderful Tilda design!
oh my goodness, how have I never seen these before???? I need to find one, and fast! thanks for sharing!
Love Love Love …She is just precious.
Ihave made up my mind to make next year of making things for my family’s Christmas.This would be a great start for me.
What a charming Angel. Thanks for your generosity in offering to gift her to someone. Your generosity is appreciated.
Good Morning, Kerryanne, Your little Tilda dolls make me want to make my own. They also so remind me of the “Elf” on the shelf dolls but your Tilda Dolls are so much cuter, in my humble opinion. To be able to own one of your creations would be so special and would make my Christmas, especially this year, so special. But I trust in God and know that whoever the lucky winner is will be well deserving of this treasure trove of goodies. I hope you and your family have a truly Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Linda Ruddock
Adorable! Want to win so I can give her to a friend who needs some sweet cheer in her life..
She’s all ready for a spin on the frozen lake/pond nearby and she’s catching the eye of all. Absolutely gorgeous!!
I can just see a little girl, having Winter Angel as her best friend, to share secrets with, and to be best friends with. So soft and sweet and such personality!
Beautiful doll! Love the Tilda books. So glad I found your blog so I can see all the beautiful designs, ideas. Would love to win the book to add to my collection. Thanks so much for the opportunity!
What a sweet and gorgeous doll, as they all are! Today is my birthday and I love your blog!!!
Your home is gorgeous, as is the sweet Tilda doll! Thank you so much for such a fabulous giveaway and as always, your beautiful freebies! I love tgem all!!! Merry Christmas to you & yours.?????
She is just lovely! I know the perfect spot for her (if I win)! Thanks for the chance and Happy Holidays!
Adorable! I just found your blog recently and love seeing your creations. You are very talented. Thanks for a chance to win something so special. Merry Christmas!
I very much enjoy your combo ideas. I am not artistic but when I begin with a pattern, I often end up combining others’ ideas with it. Then I feel creative! I use your paint and blush ideas, for instance on my amigurumi toys for my granddaughter. I also have kept your Tilda clothing photos and patterns for other types of sewn dolls. And I love your homemade applique techniques of hand top stitching and raw edges. Simple. And transferrable to any textile creations. Thank you for your wonderful closeup photos.
Beautiful winter angel. I love it. Thanks for the giveaway.
I agree with everyone about how adorable your Winter Angel is. I started to make Tilda and was stumped, do I add a 1/4″ seam
allowance to the pattern before cutting out?
Hi I Just love your news letters and you are So very create of my Love of owls that i found your site and all the Beautiful things you make and share your angle is so sweet. Pattie

Hoping to get some Tilda dolls made this month. Yours give me inspiration. Love the deers! They may have to be first. Love “walking” through your decorations. They’re beautiful!
So beautiful! Dolls are one of my favorite things to make.
She is such a beautiful work of art ! You are so wonderful to share all of your beautiful projects with all of us ! I will attempt to make a maileg rabbit tomorrow.
Your eye for details is incredible, love this!
What a beautiful giveaway! Thank you for your generosity and the opportunity to participate! I wish you and your readers a magical and blessed holiday season. Greetings from México.
I just recently discovered your blog–and I love it! Everything is so pretty, and just my style. I, too, love Tilda and Green Gate; I would love to win your skating angel doll. She reminds me of my teenage years of ice skating in the winter.
I love your website. Everything is so beautiful and creative. I am in love with your winter skating angel. I collect angels and have never come across anything quite as lovely as her. Thank you for introducing her to us.
The skating doll is wonderful! Thank you for sharing your creativity! I love all things Tilda! Would love to win in your giveaway! Thank you!
What a beautiful doll to display all winter long. Everything about her is just perfect! Whoever wins her will be one lucky person!
Wow, such a beaty! I have a very special place at home for her! Hope she likes to stay with me…
Love, Maike
I love the Tilda doll, you have done a wonderful job of creating her. I too collect angels and this one is especially adorable. The winner will have a wonderful prize. I have only been on your site for a couple of months but, I do enjoy your crafty ideas. Holliday Wishes to you and yours!
I just adore anything TILDA!
I’ve been fascinated with the Tilda dolls since I first saw them. Absolutely adorable! Sending Christmas greetings!
She’s wonderful.
Thought I had all the Tilda books, but I seem to not have heard of this one. Would love to receive it in your drawing. If not, where do I buy it ? Tilda books are so full of wonderful things to sew, but when done, I hate to give them away. With six daughters who love everything I make, I have none left for myself. Perhaps this will be the one I can keep. Love your blog !! Widowed and 86, you are an inspiration to me….love to follow your thoughts.
Love all things Tilda, Thought I had all her books, but seems like I missed this one. Would love to receive this one in your drawing. If not, where do I buy it ? Sorry to hear her fabrics are no more…I would search for as similar as possible to make several of her dolls. My six daughters love everything I make, and everything disappears. I guess that’s a big complement. LOVE your Blog, keep doing it.
Your skating doll is so wonderful, she’s a wish come true, so gorgeous and all the little details you included make her even more special. You are such a talented lady and so generous with your readers, I am one very appreciative reader and admirer.Take good care of yourself and don’t overdo for the holidays, too easy to do. Hope you figure out how to make those special skates.
Happy weekend
