Hello!

I like to think of the art of doll-making as inspiring and calming. I fill each doll I make with love, and hope that this loving energy will carry through to the people who bring my dolls into their families. Welcome to my journal, where I share my creative adventures. Hope you have a pleasant stay!

Let me introduce little Lumi - a Christmas Girl!

Lumi is about 15" tall. She is crafted with Swiss cotton interlock and stuffed very firmly with sweet-smelling wool. She has a needle-sculpted face and her hair is made with fine alpaca goat mohair weft that has been crocheted into a cap and stitched down to the head. She also has little ears, knees, elbows and a cute bum.  Lumi is wearing underwear, made with organic cotton batiste, silk ribbon and beautiful French lace, a festive cotton dress, and a pair of hand-crocheted mohair/silk boots.
