Well my latest doll, a 1930’s pattern for a boudoir doll doesn’t exactly look like a boudoir doll to me. The doll body and part of the face and outfit I made according to the pattern otherwise I was on my own. I originally wanted to follow the pattern exactly but honestly, there were not very good directions and I am not good at following a pattern exactly anyway, so after I made the body and used the drawing for the face I went on my merry way and created this doll the way I wanted her. She is a large doll, about 30 inches which is one of the largest dolls I have ever created.

I painted her face with acrylic paint and her Frizzle yarn hair was stitched on her head. Her pajamas/outfit was made with a vintage satin sheet and is so soft and luxurious. I painted her hands, partial arms and legs with a flesh color acrylic paint. Her shoes are also painted with a gold color acrylic paint.

All in all I am happy with her, if I ever decide to create another doll using this pattern there will be many changes ! Thanks for visiting !
