rag dolls ..especially raggedy ann dolls ...
melissa mentioned in her blog holly hobbie... remember her?? she looked like little laura ingles ... anyways a couple months ago i started to make a doll of me for me.. all from scratch.. here she is my first dollie...
silver strands in the hair & all!
my hair is shorter now but it will grow out wild
& crazy again right?!?!?
the little velvet rose skirt is
a piece of a favorite little jacket i wore in the 80's ..
i started knitting a couple months ago & had hoped to have a scarf i could wear by now..
but since i don't... i'm a slow knitter ...
i knit a mini scarf one for my mini me.. my first scarf!!
boots cuz i LOVE boots
& tights the color of my dogs
rust black & white

Great job! I love it!
Really, you have never made a doll, were knitting (something new it sounded like?) and then used fabric from an old well loved coat. I'm impressed.
AND THANK YOU FOR CHECKING OUT MY GIFT BLOG
!!!! I put so much work into it, and I want someone to at least see it, lol!
How cute are you to make a Mini Maggie Doll!!
She's adorable. I love your new paintings on your previous post too. Very very cute. Especially the one w/ the flowers. You really have been busy. Glad to see that gorgeous smile is still intact!!! No signs of impact!
Thats a good thing. xoxoxoxo
oh she's adorable X:-) X:-) X:-)
I saw you at Sydney's and came over to say hello. I am glad I did, I like your doll and the mini me idea. I have made some dolls, too, but not for a while. I do still have a spiral notebook of designs, though. Much more fun to sit in a chair and come up with a design than to put it together. For lazy me, at least. : )
Aw man she's fabulous! Great work!
