meet rufus

 
my first man doll. i cut up an old shirt of my boys that they had outgrown....it was pretty easy to fit as i just sewed it to the body pieces and then stitched the doll together...but the pants...oy vey...a different story...
 
a cut up a holey pair and reused the bottom of the pant legs for his actual cuffs and then repurposed the waste band and zipper stitching. i took a cargo pocket and cut it in half and then cut it in half again to make the back pockets. I had to take stitching from the side to stitch around one of the sides of the pockets that needed an finished edge...then i tried them on and ...........they are a bit wonky for sure...but there is something i love about doll clothing that looks a bit off...knowing full well the maker tried like hell to make it work!
 
here he is wearing them...good lord, from the back he is a dead ringer for my uncle...
 
i love his droopy, sad eyes...he's a keeper!

goddess of spring

 
my latest favorite doll. she has turquoise hair with flower bunches. she has a flowy white dress and she exudes SPRING!!!
