Exciting News To Share!


I am so excited. I had to share the news. Meet Dr Con Traption. Last month I sent him off to Columbus, Ohio for the Artistic Figures In Cloth Conference. He was part of a Steam Punk Challenge mounted by Doll Street, an online community.

Dr Con Traption and his Personal People Transporter won First Prize!! The dolls, 15 in all, were judged by The ladies from Dollmakers Journey. Second Prize went To Inez Brasch and People's Choice to Laura Lunsford.

All the dolls were fabulous. I wish Icould have been there myself. Maybe next time, in 2013!! My thanks to Judy Skeel, for organising the display and Cindy Sieving for organising AFIC.



Here's views of the back, showing the People Transporter and  aclose up of the front. he's needle felted and then dressed in a Cashmere suit. Paverpol fabric wings and metal found object contraption.
