swaddled baby- night
When I change direction and am trying to get in the groove- from girl dolls which are about the clothes, to baby dolls which are about applique and surface decoration- I find it useful to step back and start with a design I have explored before. That gets me thinking and going in the new direction but hopefully not getting overwhelmed or lost.
I love the night babies so I start there. Here are some earlier ones-
This doll was amazingly hard to photograph. If I wanted to show the details on the body, the face got washed out. Face right? Body ended up too dark. So I mixed them up to give a good idea.

Simply stunning. I always feel so good when I look at your work.

Your night babies are giving me lots of inspiration for my mermaid tails. I’m really enjoying doing the applique but have run out of ideas – thanks Mimi!
