Well, I finally got her done....and I must say, the wool for her hair and nose was TOTALLY worth the wait! The color in person is just beautiful! Carolyn at The Flying Ewe does a fab dye job! She was fun to do...it felt good to work on a dolly again. It seems like my summers are always so busy, I hardly get any crafting done. Plus, I have to gear up for the Twelve Days of Christmas show later this year...yikes! :0)
Anyhoo......this gal measures somewhere around 30 inches from tip of party hat to her feet...almost all of her trimmings were hand stitched... her arms are wired and poseable...her lil pumpkin bucket is made from paperclay ( a fun little venture for me...) and I tucked in preserved sweet annie. I also made her a BIG Halloween pinwheel with a rusty bell center.Her banner is osnaburg- it reads Trick or Treat and has black german glass glitter on the edges....I got her listed now and she will end Sunday
afternoon. ~CLICK HERE~ to see her auction. Now I'm off to work on my other dolly...I'll be sure to post pics when I'm done...-Jody
