 Doll No. 347 2006 to 3/2009 |
Henrietta Jane, started in 2006 and finished in 2009!
Progress photos of this doll have been uploaded to my picturetrail site
- see the "Salvage Doll" album. 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. This doll is SOLD |
