I have my mother's very old doll head and you have inspired me to make an angel also. Thanks.

lets see how the hollow ones come out norash. After all the little quilts you made to send out with the dolls for the sick kids, I think I can manage to get one your way. (No fee) Just email me (PM me for address if you don't have it) I only have 2 to do left and they'll be a little different, so will send a picture, when they are finished. I need your email addy, and not sure I have it. HUGS

carolynjo...just hot glue it (A LOT) to secure it to a base of some sort and make up your own pattern from lace yardage. Good luck!

Thanks to all of you that took time to reply to the posting of the angels. I was so afraid the angel wouldn't come out right. I just guessed at all of it and began to cut it out. The next 2 will be a little different and be able to fit on the top of a tree. I hope to finish them tonight and hope to post then or tomorrow.

Those are so cute Word. Just love them. Are they full dolls with bodies or just the heads?

Tucky, all I had to work with was the head, and had to create all the rest. The first one won't work on a tree, and the last 2 have a serger spool inside the 'body' so the tree top will fit inside it.
