Rosey Anne, the first of five new Prairie Flower girls is finished. With their bodies all nicely stuffed, they are a blank canvas; they have the potential to be anything, just like a young child.
The first doll was inspired by Raggedy Anne, with her cute triangle nose, embroidered heart, and sweet smile. I'm hoping to find a light pink gingham to make her a pretty apron. It is almost as much fun thinking about the next doll as making it :-)
Oh Beth, wait till your box comes. I have the PERFECT fabric in there for her!

Beth, she is adorable!
ReplyDeleteBeth, I love her. I was going to say I have the pink gingham I would send you, but I see someone beat me to it. I can't wait to see what you do with the rest of the bodies.
ReplyDeleteThank-you so much, hisiamone and Lisa :-) And Lisa, thank-you for your generous offer; I'm wanting to try the counterchange smocking technique that Tomi is doing...sounds a lot less tedious than ironing on dots, and a lot cheaper than buying a pleater!
ReplyDeleteBeth
adorable! can't wait to see the others!
ReplyDeletelovely dolls! I love the photo with different colors of bodies :)
ReplyDeleteThank-you so much, bybido and esef52 :-) I am just about finished with all of the bodies...they are all now little girls almost all dressed.
