Evangeline

My first whirl at doll making. her dress and shoes are made out of an old dress of Nattie's and her hair is an old dress of Annie's. She's named after of of the actresses on 'Lost' because I was watching old episodes the whole time I put her together. I gave Evangeline or Evie to Nattie for an early birthday present, Annie's is almost done now and we're calling her Lilly. I have to say, it's been a lot of fun, but man I want a sewing machine!!

Props for the hand-sewing. She's beautiful! Ellie's Bday is in July and Kiki is in August. Let me know the cost + S&H and I will place an early order : > )
How fun!

So cute!! Did you use a pattern and where can I get one? :)

If I had a sewing machine I'd give it to you since I'm not a crafty pants (enter reason for not having one). Sorry Charley.

Wow, your kids will treasure those! It's not often anymore these days when a parent makes a homemade gift for their child. It's an heirloom, a one of a kind, gift you gave them, that is irreplaceable.

Nothing is cuter than your girls toting those dolls around. I agree, how rare that kids get a handmade anything nowadays...let alone a dolly their mom made while watching the best TV show ever! Let me know when we need to schedule the next photo shoot:)
