Tattoo lady #3
This third one- she has freckles-
I over-dye all the toile to make the skin tones and then dye some plain fabric and hope they match. I am not very good at it, but I have a great time. This fabric ended up with tiny red dots and they give her a freckly look.
I love her shape. Playing with the variety of lady shapes has been great fun.
I made a skirt, or maybe you’d call it a tutu, for my Tattoo lady #2-
And, I gave her fingers.
This is how I sign my dolls, in case you wanted to know-
It is a little tag made of shrink plastic.
Here are the three ladies, relaxing at the dumpster next door-
I like this photo because you can see my new lady’s little busom.

Performing at a dumpster near you ! They are great. What is it about group shots- I always like them the best.

The orange fabric (hair) is great. Tight curls, complementing the hair shape!

I love these-brilliant! The first dolls of yours I saw were your tattooed gentlemen. I love the ladies even more!

They’re so cool! I like #3’s shape the best, very realistic, and the flamingo’s are great.

Oh, I love, love this one’s hair. The use of the fabric is perfect. And she looks as though she keeps her opinions to herself. I agree with Sarah above. As much as I loved the men, I think I love the ladies even more.

#3’s bottom is perfect! She has my mom’s shape.

These are fantastic! I especially love the the third one – her shape is perfect. I was so sorry the event on Sunday got rained out! Would have loved to have met you. Do you want to meet for coffee sometime?

I just stumbled upon your blog –
I am inspired right away to do tatoos on my left index toe ;-)

I love the tattoo’d ladies! I have a tattoo, and I was always concerned about my tattoo having freckles encroach … but now that the freckles have invaded, I don’t mind so much. The redhead is the bomb, Mimi!

I just watched a small video of you and I am crying and don’t know why…perhaps with the discovery of someone doing and saying just what I do and feel…Not into minimalism…use what I have now…got much from your mom…May I add a funny I always say-I have creative compulsive disorder. Thank you for your work and for showing us. Always good to have like minded people.
