I made this doll for an esty customer. Etsy custom orders are not offered at the moment but I have difficulty with saying 'no' and really, I don't mind. This doll came to life after three or four prototypes, playing with different shapes and her face. There were times when I thought I would give up. But at the moment it all came together, I was so happy...and relieved. Working on custom orders forces me to focus and complete a design. I routinely fleet from one project to another, leaving disappointments unfinished instead of persevering. As I 'speak' there is a pouch lying lifeless on my table after fussing with it for hours. I might try to revive it tomorrow or toss it.
I'll have to make couple for the shop for sure. But I dread crocheting more of these thread flowers!!
It is just fascinating to me to know more
