First Izzanah Walker type doll finished.....

My task for today was to get the work room cleared and sorted out to start new things in the new year.....But, I got distracted! my very first Izzanah Walker type doll was nearly finished and looking at me so I had to get on and finish her!

So here she is.......

Ready to have another go now, lots of improvement needed but I have at least had a go!

Getting into the swing......

One of the things I have always wanted to do was explore the world of the vintage cloth dolls. This is my first attempt at an Izannah walker type doll, not a lot to show just yet but its a start, next on my list is a Columbian style doll. The doll is sewn and a layer of gesso painted on where the paper clay will go to sculpt the face....my next challenge! no time today but will get to it soon I hope.






I also managed to finish another piece from the Peter Rabbit story in Cross stitch which I have been doing for ever! Just the last one to do now. Hopefully I'll get that all set up tonight so I can work on it when I have those odd moments! (what odd moments!)
