Paper and Fabric Dolls

You know I never saw myself as a "dollmaker" 

and

this will probably be as close as I shall ever get

to making dolls but after seeing how easily Lilla

 at www.justlilla.blogspot.com

made these magnificent little 

creations - well I just

thought I might like to try them!

 This was my very first attempt and 

I have to admit I did really enjoy making these

 Could it perhaps be that I am so addicted to 

creating with gorgeous fabrics and lace!

(well perhaps just a little!!!)

but I also did have the perfect excuse as

I thought it would make a perfect Christmas gift for my

grand daughter, Layla, who by the way

just happens to love fairies, glitter, lace and fabric too!

Funny that!!!!!!!!

I do think there will probably be enough in this little

creation to please her don't you think?

Lilla has the most wonderful set of videos on You Tube

with heaps of tutorials on making these and many

other creations including garlands, journals, 

crazy quilt purses, cornucopias and the list goes on

so

how generous can one woman be to offer

all of these for us.

Now go and check out her blog because you just might

be looking for a new gift to make for Christmas.
