21" Charlotte, a Hand Carved Wooden Queen Anne Doll and TROUSSEAU in the works..........................SOLD

Lots of sewing going on here!
I could not wait to share some photos with you of what I have been working on.  Charlotte, a fully jointed 21" wooden doll with antique black glass eyes and a face with attitude!   She has amazing patina and looks like she just came out of an attic.
I have been having a great time sewing here, as I love to do.  So far she has 12 items in her TROUSSEAU.  I still have to make her a Chatelaine and finish her jacket off but thought I would share some photos so far.  Oh, and she needs arms and hands...........hmmmmm...........better get carving!
Charlotte and all her finery is SOLD and if you have questions or would like more photos just email me: toysintheattic@sympatico.ca

Take a peek!


SOLD



I hope you can see all the tiny stitches!

CHARLOTTE.....SO FAR....



Must share:
When I went to the PO at 8 this morning there was no parcel card left out for me, so i went and knocked on the back door, (they know me well lol) and told my friendly postman that there should be a parcel for me because I had proof that it had arrived at the Morwell despatch centre. He said there were lots & lots of parcels and it would take in awhile to check, so I  described the size of the box he should look for and he found it within a couple of minutes.. do you think I was excited!!!
 
So I've just walked in the door with the box under my arm, and before I tear it open (ever so carefully), I like to set the mood. So now I've got classical music playing and my camera ready... so off I go... so excited!!! I’ll be back shortly :))
 
 
Kathy, I am speechless!! Charlotte is so beautiful and her trousseau is stunning beyond words. She has such a regal presence, I almost feel I should curtsy.
Kathy, I am in awe of your talent as a doll maker and a seamstress, you have such a keen eye for detail. I have never seen such tiny stitches.. I don’t know how you do it! I LOVE my sweet Lady Charlotte and I am so happy that she has chosen to come and live with me and her new friends, at the treehouse. I can’t wait to introduce her to her new little friends.. I know they’re going to love her!!
Thank you again for everything, I couldn’t be happier :))
Hugs
SOLD
More to come!
Enjoy
