Well at last I found time to sit down and begin sewing a new doll, It is a great feeling, I have lots of ideas for this series. A circus / side show/ interesting character theme again......but still so many ideas in this area. I drew out a couple of body patterns, this one has a nose the second head shape is flat, I am going to try some different ideas with the dolls limbs, maybe model some clay legs...or use wire. So far I have a linen body with an embroidered face, the hat and tail coat are felt, the skirt is made from strips of vintage silk. I had fun making up the little ribbon Rosette.
i love the new doll, and can't wait to see all the new ideas come to life.
