A New Amity Doll

 I've been working in the studio the past few days, admittedly procrastinating (putting off making my steampunk centerpiece doll for ODACA Day). So, I went with something known to me, but not necessarily simpler due to the amount of hand work required - especially her hair.

This is "Amity" made from my pattern, reduced in size to 78% of the original. I recycled a wool cycling jersey to create her black shrug. 


Her wool felt beret is pinned in place while it dries. She's just waiting for a belt and face touchup before her official photo shoot tomorrow. She will be in New Orleans this summer for ODACA Day in New Orleans.

Newsletter #55: Massive Commission Finally Completed!

 https://blue-heron-dolls.kit.com/posts/massive-commission-finally-completed

I've not published a newsletter in a few months, but this one celebrates completion of a massive (for me) commission! 

I wasn't able to design and publish my annual Christmas ornament, but hope to do so in early 2026.
