Little Golly

Hello all,

What I am working on

I found some porcelain doll head at a recent doll and bear show I have been wanting to make one of these bear/Dolls for so long so this is the first one I have come up with



I have been busy for the last week working (Playing) with a new pattern to make this little bear doll which I have named poupee which is french for doll. it will need some refining but I am in love with this one. I have made a french hat beret for the doll bear but I think I will also need to work on my skills at making hats. 

Just gorgeous! It has been lots of fun playing with this one. Still a bit more work to go. I just wanted to share some photos with you all. Have a beautiful weekend Lisa



I am having a sale on all my e-patterns

Sale has now finished. thank you

Sale time, I have not done this in a long time and thought now would be great, so if you have always wanted to buy a pattern or 2 now is the perfect time. buy 2 and get the 3 one free.

You can pop over to my etsy shop here

Working on some new dolls

I made this doll about 2/3 years ago for a customer and loved the candy striper doll so much I would love to make one using my own pattern, I used a raggedy old annie pattern for her. I love her patterns I used them a lot along with sweet meadows farms pattern and threadbare primitives before I started making my own patterns,  I love nurse annie dolls, along with lots of others.



Well I gave up on making and selling dolls last year as I can't seem to sell or make some money from them, I really missed it so I thought this year I would pull out the design book again and get to work on a couple of new dolls, so hopefully in the coming weeks I will have some new dolls and photos for you. I am not sure which will come first! i have been doing lots of thinking.
