Little Knit Doll.....


     I made this doll for the baby I take care of. I used a pattern for the doll herself, but custom designed the outfit and hair myself. Had lots of fun putting her together!


 Lots of curly hair!

African Dress For Doll


     Finally got around to taking some photos of the African dress for Tenagne. I based it off of a real African dress. Was so excited to finally have an African dress for my girl!
    I had lots of fun putting the pattern together and making the dress. I've been planning for years to make her an African dress, because that is her heritage. So when I saw the authentic dress, I just had to make one for Tenagne!

 Love the look on her face in this one!
    
 Up close on the details.

New Hair and Other Such Things.....


     So I've been busy and haven't gotten around to posting lately. Sorry for taking so long to get stuff up. I've started school and am looking forward to having my GED. But to get there means lots of homework, so I'm quite busy of late.
     I made a new wig for Satomi. The pink one was really fading, it was almost white, which is not what I wanted. So here are some photos of her in her gorgeous red hair! I really like this new wig better. I think it brings out her facial features better than the pink one did.



She looks so cute relaxing in her chair!


     I made an African dress for my African- American doll. I am planning to take some photos and put them on here, but at the moment I'm working on styling her hair. Which takes several hours. So perhaps in a few days. :)
