fabric dolls




Thinking of making a series of printed cloth dollies....have been thinking about it for so long now that if I don't get on with it I shall go off the idea! Stayed up too late last night painting wide eyed stripey dressed girls.... scanned them into photoshop and flipped them to make the back pattern. Shall sew them up tonight.

christmas angels


Zen and the art of paining dolls! Nick made the spag bol last night while I painted at the kitchen table with a glass of red wine (which I then knocked over all over the dolls, and the hoover which I had not managed to put away and was using as a foot rest!!!) It was bliss though....they will hopefully become angels today to fly off to loved ones tomorrow xxxxx

the maid


Unusually hard work to finish these dolls....it's pouring with rain again outside, and these dolls just look so miserable!

papier mache dolls


Dolls waiting to be made into pretty girls! These poor armless bodies have been hiding in a box for about 3 years waiting to be made up....

toy museum






Another trip to the fabulous toy museum in Bethnal Green for inspiration....love all the strange and miserable faces on these dolls. Love also the beautiful little felt flowers on the little girl's dress.The sindy dolls are the ones that I had!!
