I love your dolls! You really DO put alot of work and LOVE into each one of them! My mother would absolutely love the bird cage doll because she has an amazing love for birds and it's uncanny how the doll looks like my mother:) Her birthday is Friday Feb. 4th, and I wish I could find her something like this! Thank you for sharing!

My mother would have loved the birdcage doll, as she loved birds and dolls! "She's only a bird in a gilded cage?"

Have a SUPER day!

These are so great!! I love them!! And anyone that knows what goes into making any doll would be more than willing to pay for them. I used to make dolls, not as good as yours, and I know what you mean about people not understanding. Keep up the good work!!!!!

I don't sell them because when I tell people the price I want for them they have all kind of remarks like "for a cloth doll?" or something else to deminish the worth. I put a lot of time and thought into them and I want them to be appreciated just like we feel about our quilts. I sometimes give them to people who express a real liking for them but don't ask if they have a price or to a friend who is having a bad day.

How thoughtful of you to make a giftee of your wonderful dolls. I love dolls but as true of so many, can't afford them for myself, so divert myself into making special rag dolls 12 inch, 21 inch and 24 inch (the 24 inch ones are the boy dolls) for kids with cancer or faced with serious health or emotional issues, causing problems that call for a doll that can comfort them. Good for you and God bless. Some people who don't craft can't imagine the time and effort that goes into things.

The dolls are just totally awesome. Especially the birdcage, but then living near the coast the mermaid was pretty special too. All are great. I'm 70 and will never quit loving dolls. Perhaps I shall never grow up, but that's okay by me. giggling.

Keep up the good work.
