first dollies of the year

I have made two more dollies.  One was meant for a birthday in October last year and the other one I wanted to make for Christmas but it took longer, as usual.  but I am pleased with them, I just have to make some more clothes for one of them.

 She looked a bit sad to start off with so I had to put in a bit of smile.  and paint her eyes a bit whiter.

 She has a tablecloth back and kickers and shoe bottoms.

 a lovely white cotton frock

 a purple cordrouy pinafore with heart buttons

and a yellow crochet skirt and handkerchief top, with a little japanese kimono bag to put her spare clothes in.
