Wenzel Steampunk car and dude.
This was a wonderful online class through Adele's S. with pattern by S. Barmore.  I learned so much with help from the dolling dames, Jean, Jayne & Laurie.  What would I have done without their help in the beginning.  What a genius designer.

Wenzel, online class

Partially done.  Steampunk car and man to follow.  So much fun to make.

Let's vote.  Whether you are a Democrat or Republican you might enjoy my tribute to the Presidential election. 

I couldn't quite get it done until a few days after the election but it was a fun pattern from Frowning Francis, Folk Art.

Here is the witch that Nark made from our face exchange. Isn't it cute!

This was a 2 day class with Stephanie Norvaski. I love the body on this doll and it actually stands on his own He is a steampunk dude doll.

We had a challenge in our doll club where we exchanged unuseable doll heads we had discarded and I picked a styrofoam ball with some paper clay on it and this is the wizard I came up with.

It was a lot of fun and was mainly a Halloween challenge. Jennifer made the original head so she got this wizard to take home. Nark got my doll head and really made a cute witch out of it which I now have.

HOFFMAN CHALLENGE 2012 The bug elf collector; Fisherman's flies are collected in the elf's net except for those who get away. One has landed on his nose and the frog is just hanging around hoping one will drop. The Hoffman fabric is the body fabric and inspired the idea of an elf in a garden. The elf collector was a pattern from Diane Evdokinoff, Deweedle the clown.

Happy New Year!
I've been having camera and computer problems plus just not ready for doll making after the holidays, until now. The following dolls are Barbara Schoenoffs little Bloom and the Santa has a felted wool head which I did a pretty good job of felting.
Felting is something that needs a lot of practice and skill and can be difficult. I don't plan to do a lot more felti

ng however because I prefer to do cloth faces.
