New Doll
 

Haven't made one for ages, but needed a break from quilting. No name for her yet .

I love these types of dolls, I just wish I could make one myself. She is beautiful.

She is just gorgeous. Nail polish and all. Do you have a pattern to make these. You are very creative.

Wow she looks great. I can't imagine being able to make one. Lucky you!!

Fun project. Would love to see more.

She's beautiful! Looks to be tedious work, you did a great job on her!

Oh she is beautiful!!! I bought one at a Church craft fair for my granddtr, not as grown up though. But so pretty. purple outfit too!
. Name her DOLLY!

She is beautiful - and I love the purple fingernails!

I am in awe...I absolutely love your talent and so wish I could create such lovely dolls.

Beautiful doll and wonderful crafting. Hope you do more.

She's a beauty!! Would enjoy seeing more of your creations. :)

She is beautiful. I am learning how to make dolls and love it.

I would love to see everyone you have ever made! I bought 3 books and tried to make a couple. I could maybe put them in a circus. lol She looks like a "Trudy" to me. Love her.

oh she is beautiful, lots of details, love her hands and finger polish!

Unique - beautiful work.

Adorable doll!

Love her. isn't she a sassy girl?
such detail beautiful hands

She looks like a Kalynda to me.

I love her. As soon as I saw her I said "Hi Matilda".

Exactly what I thought. With her red hair she must be Irish, so Violet Bridgette O'Malley.

How cute is she, Love her, when I saw her the first thing that came to mind was Cher

WOW! That is some LADY. Very nice.

Va va va voom!

How on earth do you make those little fingers??? I would love to make one, I even bought the pattern, but those fingers are intimidating me. Your doll is gorgeous!

Thank you for all the kind words. I first started making dolls 3 or 4 years ago. My first attempts were not very good but I have improved with practice. The fingers are very tricky, especially really small ones. You need special turning rods to do them.I live in the UK and have to send to the US for doll making materials .I'm self taught and although I have bought several books, the one I would recommend is Cloth dolls for textile artists by Ray Slater.The pattern for this latest doll is really a modified version of the many patterns I have tried . Increasing and decreasing ,etc. I've just picked out bits that I like.Hope this helps.
