I'm pretty happy with the way this new doll has turned out. She is "Aschenputtel" (aka Cinderella). To finish her, I made a dress and apron which I dirtied up with stain. I made a simple ladder-back chair for her to sit on, a mouse, a pumpkin and a basket (yes, I wove the basket) of logs. here she is in a pensive moment dreaming about princes, grand balls, fairy godmothers and such.
Oh my goodness, what talent. She is simply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteshe is fantastic! Just love her dress
ReplyDeleteСказочная!
ReplyDeleteVery Beautiful as always. You certainly went all out for this one.
ReplyDeleteI love her Susie, you have captured the look I would expect Miss Cinders to have, longing for a better situation somewhere away from her present job! I am glad you showed the dark brown undercoating, I'd never thought to use it for a fairer skinned doll. Best, Ani
ReplyDeleteSusie she is absolutely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWonderful as always. such a beautifully wistful expression.
ReplyDeleteQue maravilla!!!!!

Well since I'm actually named after Cinderella, this one has a special place in my heart. Beautiful work Susie!
ReplyDeleteYou have a rare talent that is for sure and it just amazes me that you ake the chair, the basket....everything! Wow! I would love to reach a point in my artistic life someday where I did it all the way you do.
