My shop is open !!!!!!

Rumors have been coming back to me thick and fast re the fact that I am closing down. I'm not sure how they originated but never have these rumors been so persistent (or so far from the truth) as they are at present.
If I was about to close, I would certainly let this be known.
If you would like to join my email list please contact me...address within blog....then you will be among the first to know...straight from the horse's mouth !!!!
I am still enjoying designing patterns and being available to provide a valuable service to my customers (both local and universal) within my shop and hope to continue for some time.

Flying High

This delightful doll is the result of me nagging Gini to design a little boy. He is of simple construction, made from tea dyed calico and has a painted face and yarn hair . He carries his oversized kite.
Size: approx 16"

this note from Gini: - This little boy pattern has been a long time coming but thanks to my friend Lynn in Australia who just wouldn't give up asking for a boy, it's finally here and more little boys will be following shortly. This little tyke is made of cloth and has a cute little button like nose. His face is simply painted and his fingers have been hand stitched. He can wear either baby shoes or doll shoes and his kite is made out of a plain paper bag.

Pattern: $16.50

Fabrics in kits

Posts regarding dolls by other designers which were added today show photos of the original dolls and therefore do not show the fabrics included in my kits, or shoes which are available from me. I will edit these posts with my photos asap.

Mary Mary

Mary Mary's head is supported by a tab neck. Her face is painted. Mary's clothes are partly incorprorated into her body. That is, her bodice is made from dress fabric rather than skin fabric. This means that all that needs to be made once the doll is done is her skirt, bosom, ruffles and vest-the latter being made from felt. Her hat is also made from felt with suffolk puff/yo yo flowers. Mary's skirt is decorated with appliqued fabrics and part of the text from the nursery rhyme.
She has painted shoes with thread laces and rib trim socks.

Size: approx approx 60 cm

Pattern: $16.50
Kit: $71.50 includes all materials except paints, buttons and filling.
Painted face available with sufficient fabric for doll skin $16.50
