Had a great time at the Tucson Wool Festival on Oct. 17. It was my debut and I had so many generous people visit my booth, I was amazed. Here's a little clip that my wonderful husband put together of the event. Eventhough it was a bazillian degrees and windy, we had a great day.

A few of the other dollies that will make an appearance at the Tucson Wool Festival are the elves, the gypsy and my Renaissance girl. Shows my different range of work. I'm always looking for feedback so, please feel free.





Well, September just sort of flew by and we're finally into our Fall season. Which, if anyone knows southern Arizona, someone throws a switch and all of a sudden it's cool ... like less than 80 degrees. I've gotten my dolls ready that I'll have at Kathy's festival. Leave me some comments on what you think.


This mermaid has a polymer comb getting ready to comb her beautiful hair. That yarn you see there is spun by Kathy Withers from her only animals. I had a blast putting this little cutie together.


She's sporting at crocheted top with a crocheted belt accent on her waist and her fin. Lost of beading and TLC.

This is the latest in my Googly Eye Doll series. It shows the manufacutring from start to finish. She's made with cotton fabric, beading and I've hand painted her face. I've used Kathy's kid mohair and put a polymer clay comb in her hair which I fabricated for the doll. She's also holding a little mirror that I made with polymer clay as well. Her sleeves are hand smocked and beaded and she's a jointed doll. She was a lot of fun to make.

There'll be more on how I make my dolls. Thank you to Kathy Withers for being the pebble that finally started my avalanche, my wonderful husband of 17.5 years and to all the people who believed I could ... even when I have had my doubts.
