I thought I'd take the time to search through my old photos to show you some of the things that I have made in the past. I use to sell my dolls under the name "Things That Make You Smile", of course once I had a telemarketer ask if I was a dentist! Oh well. Wonder what they will think of "The Sheep's Nest",hmmmm.
This is Mabel and she was feature in an Early American Life article some years back. I think she is one of my favorite dolls that I have made.
Here is a sweet little pumpkin girl, I have a great collection of antique petticoats and linens that I love to use in all different types of artwork.
Her dress was made from a homespun wool sheet.
This is something I made more recently. I had gotten a box full of broken china pieces from Germany and for years was waiting for just the right project to use them. I am quite happy with how she turned out. The dress is made from crepe paper.
I have also done some needle felting, like the head on this santa.
Here is another needle felted face.
Well I hope you enjoyed looking as some of my past work. I'm hoping that this will give me the boost I need to start on some new projects!

Mabel is a wonderful country girl/farmer's wife perhaps. I like her an awful lot. There is something very serene about her.
