I've been working on a new doll design and here's the first one I made up. I'm pretty happy with how she's turned out. I want to change a few things but really for a first iteration it went smoothly. I'm itching to start another one. I have a bunch of sketches of little guys and gals like this one and I've started a pile of fabrics that I think would make really cute dress bodies. I was trying to decide between wool felt for the body or wool/cotton fabric. I used wool felt for this one and it worked very well. And I feel I finally have a handle on yarn hair and cheek blushing. I'm all hepped up on doll-making goofballs.
We took some pictures at the park today...

And we might have got carried away...
