All of your dolls are extremely beautiful.
All the dresses are fantastic.
The choise of materials is magic.
I wonder how you get the cloth of (over ?) face,arms, legs, hands, vingers even and body so tight.
I use jersey and stuff it. Detailing is then a problem.....
But your way of work is different.
I can't see one stich. It's seamless as it look.
Can you give me one little skil????
You do your work very professional, I guess it is your daily work??
Bay,
Sheila

Hi Sheila! i've sewn all my life, so I guess I've have plenty of practice, LOL! I use 100% cotton broadcloth type fabric, there is no stretch. And Stuff it with polyester stuffing.
When stitchiing the seams, I use a very small stitch length on my sewing machine

Okay thanks for explenation.
Jersy is streching a lot, that is why it is a bit hard to give my dolls finer ditails.
Once I will give it a try to sew with no streching textile.
But when you used to a certain way of working it almost turns out the same as usual.
But on the other hand that gives me my own style.
I've sewn when I was 8 years old. My mother was working for an clothing atelier, when she was at work (at home) I was always near her and so I took her skils automaticly in my way of work.
Though I never take any lessons from teachers, I learned it from her and myself.
But sometime it is a bit of a lack when I will go further....
Bye!
Sheila.

Her hands are amazing. Your colours are so delightfully earthy. I wish she didn't look so sad.
... I kind of want to wear her dress

Yes, after spending most of the day reading Tim Flannery's The Weather Maker I have no choice but to agree with her. Not that I wouldn't have before.
I look forward to more of your beautiful dolls

I know, eBay is cheap but in the long run they make a lot of money off of sellers there!
