Just Some New Faces...

Hey everybody!

Just updating with some pictures of new folks (or old folks with new things). I'm really not on any kind of particular hiatus - Ivy is, to say the least, an incredibly exhausting child and with the other little one brewing.. I really have just felt like sleeping after she goes to bed (the time I usually reserve for doll things). Even now I've been up waaay too late, but I really wanted to share some things with you guys!!

First up, I decided a while ago to root Phina another head - this time in mohair. I really love mohair on dolls, it has a very etheral and dreamy look. Since Phina is half siren, it gave her a really nice beachy look which I like for my siren girls! Liz (dutifully) gave her another faceup. I think she's really pretty! I might have her intensify her eyeliner and smoky eye a little more... but I really love her alot! Liz also knitted her awesome bag... she knits lots of nice things (and she'll sell them too if you ask!). I made Phina's top and pants.











Next up is a new face. Her name is Ellaria Nightsong and she is my gypsy girl. She is a fortune-teller and is pretty insistent she has magic of her own... though a lot of people are not incredibly convinced. She is a Sunshine Games Poppy Parker - I redid her hair some. I made her top and skirt. The top I made years and years ago, before I knew anything about sewing and you can see that it's falling apart. I need to make her a new one. The corset was made by my good friend Laura.




I was fortunate enough to receive a great skirt from Cat and Adela definitely snatched it. She really needs business-y clothes so this skirt was perfect for her! I really recommend Cat's clothes. They are nicely lined and made! I made the lace shirt (not as nice as her skirt I assure you) and the necklace.










Her date is obviously late picking her up or something... yikes!!
