She is from one of those popular newsprint type magazines back in the 70's. I think she is supposed to have some kind of Victorian gown but this is as far as I got so she is still naked!
At the time I thought the heart lips would be a cute touch but once I got the button sewn on, I wasn't so sure - so I set it aside. Now....I think it looks like she has a pacifier in her mouth! LOL! So I'll take the button off and probably embroider a new mouth. I think she has an inked one but embroidered would probably look better. I'm not sure what I had in mind for that unkempt hair either.
Last night I worked on the puzzle piece some more, trying out different stitching techniques. The more I work with it, the more comfortable I feel about it. I keep getting more and more ideas for other pieces.
And I did find my beading needle. A whole packet of them! They were in a drawer full of beads - where else would they be????

Hmmm... beading needles in a bead drawer... how strange! I love the way your puzzle piece is looking, and the doll is very cute!
ReplyDeleteLOL! In my own defense, I put most of my beads in small bead containers that fit in an acrylic box that I can easily travel with. The beads in the drawer are excess beads or specialty beads that I don't often use. I had looked in that drawer but it turned out the needle book was in a baggie with some other things that wouldn't have led me to believe they might be there. It may also be a sign of slight disorganization. hahaha!
ReplyDeleteThat doll has pretty eyes! That heart button does look like a pacifier! LOL! It looks like you are having fun with the puzzle piece swap! Nice work! :)
ReplyDeleteGina,

Your puzzle piece looks great. I've talked to Pat about them also and may just have to jump on that band wagon as well. :-)
