More dollying

I've been a busy beaver. 
This little lady is one of Sherry's babies.  She has a twin and THEY didn't cry from the bookcase! Humph.
This knitted dress has a tiny crocheted edging. Sherry might attempt some embroidery on the dress.  Heaven knows she is capable!
 
 

This Hitty was carved by Wanda H.  and painted by me. Basswood is very pale.  What to do???  Tough job to "stain" the body after it has been sealed with clear sealant.


Sherry gave me the idea to add a touch of paint to a sealant.  I added Delta Ceram Coat Toffee Brown.  I like the color very much.  I've renamed her Hitty Constance.  Now to paint her shoes! 


 
This clever little apron is a vintage hankie.  Sherry did it for me as a sample.
It came from a pattern on Hittygirls.  Tiny rickrack is sewn on the front side, then turned under and stitched again.  It is a moebius pattern so no buttons, snaps, ties, etc.
Hitty Gran is thrilled!  She is on German Shepherd guard duty----Majorette and Jackette are real rabble-rousers.....
