hanging out
these gals have been patiently waiting on my desk for their photoshoots. they have been pokey pokersons. some sitting around for days with no hair, weeks with no faces, months with no outfits. now they're all finished and waiting for the sun, and for me to have the time and concentration to do some set ups.

Oh, and I meant to also say that you have beautiful china!
Posted by: Audrey | Jan 13, 2008 12:23:39 PM
They're beautiful! You did an incredible job on these ladies!
How on earth do you attach their hair? Would you ever consider doing a tutorial?
Or maybe a pattern??????

I adore these! They are just the cutest!
Posted by: Maritza | Jan 13, 2008 1:07:53 PM
No, they could not be any cuter. :-)
Ditto on the hair question: sewn? Glued? They look fantastic!!

So cute - hair, dolls, outfits, tea set - everything :)
Will you be selling patterns for these gals? I'd love to have some of them around my sewing room.
PS. I got your make-a-long patterns for Christmas and can' wait to start my own Olive and Archie set.

Oh they are SO cute!!! Ok, so when are we going to learn how to do yarn hair?? Enough teasing us with the great yarn hair dolls ;)
Posted by: Kim | Jan 13, 2008 6:57:09 PM
round head dolls! Great yarn choices.
Posted by: purple petunia | Jan 13, 2008 8:34:02 PM
Ack! The blue-haired one!? I am seeing that right, right?
They are amazing, Hillary, and so is the folkster. You are outdoing yourself! :)
Posted by: emily | Jan 13, 2008 8:47:00 PM
We've been waiting ever so patiently for these dolls to make their debut! I'm not sure we have much left... they are my favorites!!!
Posted by: bethany | Jan 13, 2008 9:32:40 PM
Love the dolls! Especially the Asian on the left- she looks just like my beautiful niece!
And I second the pattern request :o) Spare us trying to figure these out on our own!
Posted by: mary | Jan 13, 2008 11:49:31 PM
ohhh the hair, the hair! But what do you sew it on with? Presumably not the yarn that is the hair, wouldn't it be to thick? I was thinking of trying this using that invisible nylon sewing thread..... These guys look like Ingrid and whats-a-name, the make-a-long doll body with that rounded head from the butterfly. I've been meaning to try and give this a go, this may be just the inspiration to get me moving on it! Thank you, they are lovely, did I mention the hair?
Posted by: Kate | Jan 14, 2008 1:46:11 AM
I'm glad you got them some tea while they're waiting.
Very cute!
Posted by: Muriel | Jan 14, 2008 2:15:57 AM
ADORABLE. I am dying of doll envy over here. :)
Posted by: Kari | Jan 14, 2008 2:54:19 AM
I LOVE them - they're SO cute (I'm a sucker for dolls with big round heads) : D Great job!
Posted by: Michelle | Jan 14, 2008 7:32:49 AM

Posted by: Melissa | Jan 14, 2008 8:26:47 AM
Oh, for cute. You are a whiz with doll hair.
Posted by: Amy | Jan 14, 2008 9:10:35 AM
So excited to see what you do with these!
Posted by: Beth | Jan 14, 2008 9:29:36 AM
Makes me wish I had a daughter!
Posted by: Pumpkin Girl | Jan 14, 2008 9:39:00 AM
They are adorable and I love that they are having a wee tea party.
Posted by: June | Jan 14, 2008 9:41:06 AM
Hahahaa - I thought you said "Pokerpersons" as in - instead of a tea party they were playing poker! These little gals look like they could do that too, ala the movie Mr. Mom - with coupons, heehee.
Very cute.

The anticipation is killing me...I just can't wait! I missed out on your last postcard set. Hope to snag the next ones up!
Posted by: KK | Jan 14, 2008 11:45:01 AM
Ummm....Wow! Those are so very cute. I especially like the raven haired beauty. Is that a blue willow tea set?
Posted by: DeerDominique | Jan 14, 2008 12:27:46 PM
Your talent is so inpiring!
Posted by: Allison | Jan 14, 2008 1:11:50 PM
Now I need to have a cup of tea.
Posted by: Karissa | Jan 14, 2008 2:15:36 PM
more pictures please!!! and postcards would be nice too and maybe even a pattern oh please:)
Posted by: Melissa | Jan 14, 2008 2:46:04 PM
The dolls are so cute - their round heads and little bodies remind of the Joan Walsh Anglund dolls I used to have as a kid - sold by Hallmark, I think! We'd love to have a pattern!
Posted by: Laura | Jan 14, 2008 4:06:06 PM
So lovely!
And I'm about tearing my hair out with this ugly gray Chicago light. I just opened an Etsy shop and trying to take pictures that don't look totally depressing is hard.
Posted by: Lotta | Jan 14, 2008 4:49:27 PM
I love their hair, especially the buns.
Posted by: Makayla | Jan 14, 2008 4:51:34 PM
