It was a dreary raining day today and I didn't even notice it go by as I was happily doing my dolly. Here is Victoria in her underwear.
Victoria is about 12 inches tall. Her hair is done with pen and ink and color washes (DecoAmerican Fabric Paints). Her face is painted with the same fabric paint line. Here she is in her chemise top.
Her chemise is suppose to be two pieces but she insisted that I make it in one piece and so I did. I didn't feel like arguing.
Here is a close - up of her face. I did the outline of the hair and scratched in some hair and while it was curing, I did the face then went back and did the two color washes and shaded with Burn Sienna.
I will try to work on her lovely clothing and bonnet and shoes tomorrow. It will probably take all day.

Here she is all dress in her crow dress, wool jacket and lace collar and red bow. The tiny bunny in her lap is a Kate Erbach design, he is adorable.
Her name is Blanch and she is 42 inches tall.

I signed the back . Her hair and face are painted with DecoArt fabric paint. This is a very simple rag body. I had to sew a seam accross the neck to take out the crease that it formed. I stuck to the pattern except for adding a butt and changing the hands a bit.
Here she is in her dress. The pattern for the dress came with the doll, real cute old fashioned dress.
Here she is with her bonnet on.
And a close up. I really like this doll.
