This is Dorothy



So, when I started to make this doll today, this is not at all what I had in mind. However, Dorothy demanded to be created. Dorothy claims to be 38 but her birth certificate adds about 20 years. Dot has been married 5 times but is still looking for "Mr. Right". Unfortunately, she's still looking in all the wrong places. She's also shopping in all the wrong places - her accessories tend to come from the Juniors department and her clothing, from Frederick's of Hollywood.


I figure if I make at least one doll a day, I can build up some stock and start a shop on etsy. That is, if anyone will be interested in my dolls. Maybe I'll put Harry and Dot up for sale and see what happens. I really had a lot of fun making them!

Thanks, Jayne. Maybe she'll come visit the Pickled Vicar once it's done. ;-)

Thank you for letting us know about Brenda. I'm sorry that she deleted her blog. She will be missed greatly. If you wouldn't mind, please let her know that she's in my thoughts.
