Googly Goes "Back East"

In late December, I finished another one of my interpretations of a Googly doll.  She has flyaway hair, as you can see and is dressed in her scoot-around dress, with a book bag. 


 Pictures can be clicked on for a larger view.

I made her for a trade with Artis Corwin, a talented dollmaker whose work can be seen on the Maida site.  I used my own patterns for the clothing.  Above is the Googly walking on her way to school, maybe passing by a dog.   I like Googlies for their various expressions....

Below she is in her other outfit, her school uniform.  I pleated the skirt so the green is on the inside pleats, and gave it a little pin as I remember my tartan skirt had one when I was in the sixth grade.

Her little bag and shoes I made of leather.  I used Gail Wilson's pattern for the shoesies. 



I made the teeniest shirt I have ever made.

It was fun to do a doll trade with Artis.
