another forest girl
All covered with her cape-
Sneak peak of her brighter clothes underneath-
Here she is without her cape-
I played with a new way of making hair- several layers of wool.
Here is her cape, laid out. You can see her skirt and underskirt, which is made of another printed sweater of an angora/wool blend- so soft.
And here are the 2 girls together. These girls are making me very happy.

Wow. Why would a girl want a Barbi doll when she could have one of these? Do children play with your dolls…or are they intended for grown-ups? I love to visit these pages and step into the world of your imagination. love, Beth

This might have to be my very favorite of your dolls – her hair is WONDERFUL! She looks like a little wild girl, but with the most amazingly detailed clothing. You have surpassed yourself….

Beautiful. She reminds me of the darkest part of a foggy forest. I love her detailed bodice and her multi-shade hair.

I love, love, LOVE these girls. I was just in Germany, and they make me think “Black Forest” and a great German word: “Hutzelwald”.

These dolls are beautiful. I can see you have put in a great deal of thought when choosing the texture, colour and shapes of the textiles you have used.
