Bookshelf dollies

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving at my parent's place!  I took advantage of their beautiful built in bookshelves lining the living room to take some photos.


Betsy Ross joins in with dolls from Eastern Europe and Mexico. 


Cute!
Hope you had a great holiday too!

McKayla with her doll!

Meet McKayla!  This soon to be big sister has a one of a kind matryoshka made of pink and white gingham and polka dots.  I was not sure how the black accents would turn out- after all, it's a doll for a little girl- but I really like how it ended up.
I love this photo, with her little hand holding on to the side.  She is such a sweet girl.  
Big hug!

This is the first doll I made with an entirely cotton fabric body- her headscarf is made of gingham fabric instead of felt, stitched together instead of appliquéd.  The vintage fabric I used needed lining, interfacing, under stitching, top stitching....and that's before sewing a perfect circle on the bias! I have yet to make another like this, but plan to in the future- but not with this kind of fabric.

As always, thank you for visiting Mimi Mart!
