I’d like to introduce you to Hope a very special doll that I have been making for Susan. Hope is the last doll that I’m shipping out before Christmas this year. She is a quiet, demure girl with auburn wisps of hair that frame her sweet face. Susan chose a dark brown print fabric with a madder stripe for her dress, that compliments her hair and complexion. She has bare feet, with hand stitched toes, tall stockings made from a vintage lady’s sock and red leather shoes with pinked edges and silk ribbon ties.
Merry Christmas Susan!
