2023-07-14T13:54:00.004-04:00

Look at this free pattern for a needle keep:

https://www.annwoodhandmade.com/blog/

I adore Ann Wood Hand Made

I bought her Tiny Rag Doll pattern, I love hand work sewing while watching TV with my Sweet Hubby.

I bought it at the beginning of summer, and am enjoying creating two dolls with their wardrobe for our two Granddaughters. Ages are 7yrs and 3 yrs. Plan is to have all finished for Christmas..

Tiny Rag Doll

She’s just 5 inches tall and fits in the palm of your hand. Perfect for a doll house or somebody’s pocket. And she has a tiny wardrobe: dress, reversible pinafore apron, bloomers and camisole – all included in the pattern. And there is an always growing collection free accessories and clothing patterns for the tiny rag doll .The pattern is on sale for $7.50..I paid $10.00 when not on sale

It is a huge patterns, Lots of clothes to make!!

Lots of Love !

, I just finished dressing her,Aba-Gayle is 13"
I have done much better painted faces..But for some reason this little gal just spoke to me.As I dressed her I could really feel the love.I know the first time I heard that from another doll maker, I thought nutty! But it is true as you create any thing so much of your self goes in to it ,That creates the Love.I do prim Folk Art type dolls, Some people do not like, But others collect them, I love antiques so I really love prim and folk art! I am creating my Cloth Dolls once again , and Enjoying it so much
