Monday...

I know, its quiet :o) We have a young friend undergoing surgery today and consequently we have a house full of kiddos :o) Its a bit busy around here and unfortunatly I don't have much time for photographs and web activity.

I am still working...Amber, your gal is finished and ready for her final pics. Theresa, I am working on your gal today :o) Also, Carrinna, Fae's clothes are gonna be sewn soon. I might have pics up tonight, but in all honesty, I think the odds are more in favor of tomorrow :o)

See ya all later..

Peace

Amber's Pics

OK, its been a bit of a long day around here...but fun. I managed to get these images up now for you to see your gal...

Her little clothes are all done

Her face...

This is where she is right now. Her hair will be attached tonight and perhaps early tomorrow then the finishing touches of a bit of color on her cheeks and she will be ready to go home.

Amber's Girl...the beginning

Hello Amber!

I started work on your gal yesterday, this is where she is at today. Her sweater is all knit and just needs the finishing touches.

Today I will assemble and shape the head and then assemble her body. I will also try to get her clothes sewn.

Happy B-day!

Lelan's Gang...all finished

Here they are all done and ready to go home :o)

Lucille...

Baby Trudy...

Estelle...

and sweet little Charlotte....her hair has been resewn and she has a new outfit :o)

She is still as sweet as ever :o)

Estelle & Lucille - Lalan's girls :o)

Now that we have names for them I thought I would use them :o)

I was able to reuse two of the outfits you sent along...

Here is Lucille, I resized the back and front of the romper then I cut the legs off and reused them as the sleeves :o) It fits wonderfully :o)

Estelle is lovely in her refitted toddler dress :o) I was able to reuse the original hemline to give it that "authentic" look :o)

Both girls have flared pants...though it doesn't show up so well in the images...they were made from the denim jeans you sent along :o)

Pretty good, huh?

I am off to go play with my kiddos for a while before dinner...I will pick it up again tomorrow. It will be Trudy's turn then :o)

Lelan's Gang :o)

I worked late yesterday on them...I wanted to make sure I had lots of time to work on the resizing of the clothing :o) Here they are as of this morning...

I have to tell you that this baby has caused quite a stir around here...she is so cute. She feels great to hold too :o) She is going to be hard to send off :o)

I love seeing the three of them together...

So, today I will begin working on the clothing for these three. They are all going to have resized clothing. This part will be the slower part of the whole process. So far though, I think they are coming along rather nicely :o)

Lelan's Trio Today

I worked on them all day yesterday and this is how far they were along as of last night :o) Two older kiddos and one baby. Just like three siblings :o)

Here is a closer look at the baby. No button joints, all the limbs are firmly sewn into the body. She is weighted and sits up sweetly all on her own.

I will have more images tomorrow :o)

Lelan's Trio :o)

Here are your first set of images...first here is the tan skinned girl.

This is her as of this morning...all assembled and ready for her face and hair :o)

This next image is the Light tan skinned girl...she will be assembled today

and finally here, is the light tan skinned toddler doll...she too will be assembled today

More images tomorrow :o)

Lissa's Girl

Here she is all finished and ready to go home...she just needs a name :o)

Today, I am wrapping up work on a 12 inch little girl with peach skin and yellow blonde hair (like Serafina's) for my shop and starting work on Lelan's trio. The little shop gal should be listed tomorrow morning and I should have some images of Lelan's first kiddo tomorrow here on the blog as well :o)
