and another school girl

I’ve been thinking about how to make a doll with braids- not with yarn but with the same fabric as the scalp hair.

Doesn’t she look like the big sister?

    She really does look like a big sister! Love her eyes. Slanted out of the corner of her eyes watching her mischevious little brother! Love it!

    Oh my gosh! They are so darling Mimi! Yes, she looks very much like the big sister, with her gaze to the side, watching her brother. So charming.

    Do your (gorgeous) dolls sit without propping? Or are the props cleverly hidden in these lovely photos?
