We did a self portrait challenge doll in the Maida Doll Group. It was a blast. Here I am! She doesn't look exactly like me, but she has my spirit. I had never sculpted teeth in a doll, but since I remember a very happy childhood, I needed teeth for Lainie's smile. Mom used to sew most of my clothes. I remember lots of ricrac. She always added matching pants or shorts or culottes because I was upside down a lot of the time, flipping on monkey bars and doing cartwheels. This doll was made with Dixie's IW workshop pattern. Love that pattern! | | | | | | | | | | | |

You really caught the happiness of your childhood in this creation. What a tribute to your parents that is. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou have an amazing dollmaking ethic. Whilst I'm still in the dreaming phase you are DONE. Great job!
Super Sweet Elaine!
