Art Doll


ART DOLL

Last September I went on an Art Embroidered doll course which was very enjoyable in the first 5 weeks we made the fairy doll that I'm working on now as I need it finished by the 8th on Jan as the tutor wants to put them on exhibition, the second 5 weeks we created an armatured doll and I'm about half way through finishing her and still thinking about a name for her. I really enjoyed creating the fairies, and going to the course as it was really nice company and I learnt so much too.




I did more work on her today. Yesterday I made tights for her and today I coloured her body and arms and also made knickers for her. I have finally given her a name ......Willow. I have really enjoyed dressing her the leaves I created by free machine embroidery with organza doubled and water soluble, the cones and frosted berries are from Christmas crackers (2007). The hair was supplied by our tutor Janet its wensleydale sheep wool and we dyed it. I love Autumn all the lours so I chose to do her hair in Autumn colours.
