Julie’s Doll Class was in session Thursday when I visited the Attic Window Quilt Shop. Above some of the women are hard at work on their dolls. It always amazes me how they make these small dolls look so awesome.
This doll is getting her back stitched. I admire the patience these women have in creating something so small and so beautiful.
This is a doll’s hatbox. Isn't it cute? I never had anything like this for my dolls when I was a child.
This doll is staying put in her little coffee mug while the creator continues making her parts.
These dolls are drying. They look like they have a coat of gesso on them. If you get a chance, take one of Julie’s doll making classes. She will make you look very professional as her creations are out of this world. Watch for her next class session in an upcoming newsletter, to be out soon.

Speaking of

A special

Congrats on the Stash Manicure Banner. Your heart is fabulous! Interesting seeing how the dolls are made. The poor one in the bottom photo. Looks like some kind of mid evil torture device! hahahaha
