The 1st of the New Year's Dolls...

Meet Lana, a little girl who loves Superman and bike riding...

Lana was specially made for a winner of my New Year's contest...

Named after Clark Kent's red-headed high school sweetheart, her hair is made of a collection of luxurious hand spun art yarns that shimmer like the sunset...

Lana comes with her own little red bicycle, that she can pose next to or actually ride, as it is just her size...

 She also comes with her one-of-a-kind clay Superman figurine, hand made especially for her by my talented son...

 The little red back pack that she takes everywhere with her is filled with all sorts of delights, from a Superman lunch box and thermos, to Superman magazines, sandwiches, and an apple to share...don't you love those pink high tops!

Lana stands or sits quite easily for all manner of adventures...

There are two more winners from our New Year's contest, but you'll have to wait to see photos of their dolls until they receive them, as both wished for them to remain surprises.

Until then,

Amy

Once Upon A Doll

My first 16 inch doll!

 A grandmother approached me and asked if I would consider making a larger doll for her grand daughter's birthday...

 Inspired by the idea, 16 inch tall Penelope was born!

 Penelope is a bit of a Victorian doll... her hair is made of three platinum hand spun wool yarns, with lots of curl and sparkle. Because the little girl who will love her always wears pig tails, her hair is gathered into two pigtails on either side of her head. Because the little girl loves hats and teapots, she wears a pink straw hat and pink teapot dress.

 Penelope won't leave the house without her lace parasol and two tone pink Victorian boots...

Penelope left this morning for her new home...she's so excited to go to her first birthday party!
Warmly,
Amy
