I might be having too much fun with the hair!
And hey! There is me in my studio!

Purple hair and Purple tail
Spiral purple hair :-)
Embroidery with variegated thread- I love these threads!
Her “belt” goes all the way around the back.
She will be going into my Etsy shop today.
Mermaid Time again
I couldn’t let summer go by without making some mermaids.
Yes I will be showing some dolls with bare breasts. Cover your eyes if that’s going to be a problem!
I am having fun doing the embroidered tails. There are lots of different ways to make mermaid tail scales :-)
The back is plain-
Another Sleeping Garden Baby
I love these bright colors.
Butterflies and flowers.
This is the last baby for now. Onto the next thing!
Garden Baby
Little Baby asleep in the garden.
Work continues slowly around here. I have had family visiting which was a nice distraction. Also, my birthday! The real reason for the slowdown though, is that I had a bad fall 2 1/2 weeks ago and recovering has really slowed me down. I cut my head, broke a tooth, broke my glasses, other scrapes- all of which has meant appointments and time away from what I’d like to be doing. Also, recovering turns out to be very tiring so I’ve been resting a lot. Slowly I am feeling more like myself. Onward!
Bird Baby
This time a big bird baby- NO, not THAT big bird!!
Green and red- my favorite.
Folk Art Flower Baby
Baby has a leaf hat-
Poppies!
The back is plain.
Midnight Baby
This is the little one who is wide awake at midnight.
The cashmere hat is a very light yellow and represents the moon.
The body is made of cashmere coat fabric and is a very dark purple-y blue.
Wow, it’s been a whole month!
I’ve been doing things. Making summer clothes, cleaning the studio, working with my plants- indoors and outdoors. I was feeling very uninspired but finally got back to work anyway. Of course, then I got my mojo back! How could I have ignored my favorite mantra- Just do something!
I started here-
Then got to here-
And then here is the first one I finished. And finally photographed.
A sweet soft heather baby.
The body is wool but the leaves and hat are soft cashmere.
Silver Fox is the Last One
He is the last one for now. I am cleaning up the mess from all these fellows! On to new things- I am not sure what yet.
A beautiful ship tattoo on his chest.
He has an anchor button of course.
