I am busy, busy, busy getting ready for the show. I love having a deadline- it is very inspiring!

She was one of the first that I got started on but then I got distracted! All the dolls are whispering, Me Next!

This is a beautiful toile with lots of leafy plants. I gave her an antique button with a flower on it. I hope you can see.

And a close-up of her hair-

I bet she is cold! I sure am :-)

Snow Crone is what she is to me- icy stars in her white hair. She can be someone else to you. That is the way I think about it.

She has stars in her hair and one on her belt.

After no ladies for so long, now I’m up to #7 of this batch and more to come!

She has fancy embroidered hair.

And a little brass bow that I found many years ago in a bead shop in NYC.

All the ladies are going into my Etsy shop as I finish them. She will be there by this evening.

I am having such a good time with all these lovely ladies!

Fancy boot laces!

A close-up of the back-

Yes, she does look pretty cold out there :-)

Tattooed lady #4 of 2021.

Farm and orchard designs on the fabric and a very fancy antique button.

A closer look at her back-

I finished her in time to photograph before the snow started on Monday. But then I got involved with my dyeing project and that was that for the day. And today too. It turned out to be a 2 day dyeing project. But now I have a year’s worth of new tattooed ladies, gentlemen, mermen, lumberjacks, etc, to work with and I am pretty excited about some of the new fabrics and colors!

She has a silk ribbon sash at her waist with a big bow in the back.
