Henrietta Jane,
started in 2006 and finished in 2009! She began as a new design (prototype for my
Hoffman 2006 doll "Carlie") but her body was too small for her head and her face
had a blow-out so I set her aside. Now she's had a complete makeover. She's made of craft
velour and muslin. Her velour head was mended with paperclay, then painted with a mixture
of acrylic gel medium and modeling paste and covered with knit fabric. The pattern for
Carlie morphed into Verity, so she has many of Verity's features.
