    Here are pics of some of the dolls I made for Craft Shops quite awhile ago. They are my own designs and patterns. Some are tall and some are short. The quilter dolls have spool necklaces and hold quilts made by me. The teacher dolls hold chalkboards; some hold babies. I like making one-of-a-kind items best of all. The name of the doll is "Miss Floppy." All their make-up is mine. I used 3-D puffy ink for their eyes and chalkboards. Each doll is numbered on the rear. Was in the process of registering them for trademark as I had a buyer in a Manhattan Shop who wanted to sell them. I decided not to as I was already working a full time job. So I just wanted to share my love of dollmaking with you today. I enjoyed seeing them again and decided to take pics. Hope you enjoy them too!! :D

    I love the hairstyles of the 1930's so the front one was one of my early creations. The white in the pic is sunlight showing on their hair.
