New Outfit

Working on a new little outfit today. 

I have the pinafore and bloomers finished.

Tomorrow I'll make her shoes.

It's turning out cute, I think!

I loved this little vintage coat and originally thought it was for a blond doll. But after painting Peggy Sue, I decided the outfit was hers. Isn't she cute?

Sophie

Today I worked on Sophie.
I think she is one of my favorite dolls so far!

New Studio and New Dolls

Hi there!
Well, it's been a year since I've posted and I thought I should probably come back to this blog.  I've had an old greenhouse converted into an art studio. Today is the final day of conversion. Shelves are being hung, pegboard, and a lot of organization.  Once that is finished, I'll be back in business!

I've been making my own doll clothes and shoes and have had a ball with it.
Also, working on a line of Mermaids.

Here are a few photos. None of these dolls have been repainted yet, but this will give you an idea of where I am in the process.

So as you can see, I have been busy, trying out patterns and new techniques.
I'm also working on wigs and Mermaids!

Pretty Pink Mermaid

Stay tuned.
I hope to begin listing dolls again by the end of next week.
