Turtleneck for the Guys

Trent
As Marta has noticed, I have made
a turtleneck pullover
for the men dolls.

Here's the back
(and Basil's back.)

Russell was the first
to wear it.

New Guy

Who is that, hiding in the sweater?

It's Basil St. John.  Effanbee made him.
He's Brenda Starr's boyfriend.
Didn't recognize him?
In the comic strip, he wore an eye-patch.
Still not ringing a bell?
Well, I don't think Brenda and Basil
look much like the drawings of Dale Messick, but I like them, anyway.

Found at the Doll Show

Trent!

I "needed" a Trent for a
fit model.

Plus, I love his over the top,
almost cartoonish look.
What do you think?

ASHENBERRY

Judith Eppolito of ASHENBERRY

made these beautiful animals.

Unfortunately, 

my camera work

did not do them justice.

Fortunately,
There is a website 
with photos
right HERE!

Raggedy Works of Heart

Katharine Longo

was showing at the doll and bear show

that I got to go to, last weekend.

I think her work is charming!

See her work, HERE!

Doll's Christmas

I know it is early, yet.
(In that sentence structure
 you have evidence
of the 6 years I spent
in Pennsylvania "Dutch"
Country.)
In trying to earn a
little by selling
on eBay, I made
some stocking ornaments.
They reminded me of
The Doll's Christmas
by Tasha Tudor.

Before I ever heard of
Tasha, or any of her
books, I liked to dream of
making my own doll sized
Christmas celebration.

Whether they were
inspired by Tasha,
or, just inspired,
a Google search of
"doll's Christmas"
was fun, for me.

Here are just two links
to what I am still exploring:

Pleasantville Christmas (Teaser) 

Are you dreaming of  doll
Christmas?
Do you include dolls
in your celebration
in any way? 

Not My Knits - on eBay

There are some pretty knits for dolls on eBay, aren't there!?

Barbie Clothes
AG Dress Set
!6 inch Fashion Doll Set
Baby Dress Outfit

I am not endorsing these sellers.  I thought I'd share a little of what is out there.  Having a little difficulty with Blogger, just now, so I added links instead of trying to post photos.
