Her hat is beaded and quilted with an edging of telephone wire.
Her skirt/birdcage was made from basketry reed which I wrapped in strips of quilt batting and then strips of fabric. The little bird nest holds three shiny bead eggs that the bird is watching carefully.
I had a lot of fun creating her although there was a lot of problem solving...which, of course, is a huge part of creation.

Oh my, am I jealous! That studio is AWESOME!! Gorgeous light and lots of room. I work in a tiny space where there is just enough room for me and all my stuff. If I want to cut anything, I have to go to my kitchen table...lol. Your dolls are excellent! So colorful and vibrant.
Wonderful blog...keep it up!

Hi Susan- The answer to your question on my blog is felt. The pincushion bands are made of felt. BTW...what is your last name and email address? I couldn't find it on your blog. Thanks for visiting my blog.
