Hello, Goodbye and a New Doll




My little Susan Fosnot doll (Gudrun) arrived just before Christmas, but I had to wait until the first mail day after Christmas to pick her up. She is just six inches of cloth doll perfection! If you haven't seen Susan's work, go to www.fosnotdolls.homestead.com You are in for a real treat. I even love the little tag.




At the same time, I have said goodbye to 'Izzy' and 'Ella' - they are on their way to a new home in the USA. I'm pleased that they are staying together in their new home.




In between Christmas festivities (spent this year with my son and his partner, Anna, at Woodbridge overlooking the beautiful D'Entrecasteaux Channel), I managed to make a body for this new doll. I don't often make knee and elbow joints, but this doll has them - jointed hips and shoulders as well, so she is quite mobile. Now I just need to work out how to dress her!

Happy New Year to you as well my dear! Is the jointed doll the top one? She's lovely!

Thanks Cynthia. Yes....the top one is the one with all the joints. I've just finished dressing her and I am about to post more pics.
