I have made another doll for my collection! Her name is Jane, and I think she is gorgeous!

She has a blue floral dress, with a light blue pokeadot pinafore and calico bloomers.

One of my favourite things about making dolls and bears is that I can use technics that I already know (Which is a gr8 feeling!) and also to be able to learn new technics, which gives you an extra good feeling when the project is accomplished, because I’ve learnt something new and have filed away some new information in this all-creative brain of mine!!

Two of the technics that I learned with this doll is how to make the dress, the pinafore and the bloomers. The other technic was the hair, I enjoyed that!

(If you want me to tell you how I did the hair, your going to have to post a comment and I’ll tell you another post! I don’t want this to be a long post!!)

I entered Jane in a competition at our Agricultural Show earlier this year. I was in the 9-12 yr olds and when the judges came round to judge, they didn’t give me anything, ‘cause they didn’t think I did it alone (Even though I did!)!!!!! So I didn’t get anything for it. But after the judging, a friend of mums who was talking to mum earlier, went up to the judge and said, “I know for a fact, that a 12 yr old girl did that all by herself!!! The judge said that “the judging was over and there’s nothing I can do about it.”  But I got a highly commended ribbon in the end because the first judge wanted to give me something. I do admit, I was expecting to get a first!! I had put a lot of effort into that dear Jane doll. But, (sigh) it doesn’t matter.

 There’s always next year!!
