It is so good to be back.. A heartfelt thank you for all your visits and kind thoughts.. I hope the New Year has brought joy to all.
A little out of the box for me... Inspired by the image on my antique chair..
. I was sitting on the couch, trying to think of something different to needle felt.. It was right in front of me on the chair. Image of a man and women, so inspiring. I fashioned her a little purse from glass beads and wire.... She stands 6 3/4" tall.
Hope you enjoy viewing.
Lovely !!!...Happy ...cosy,,,creative.....healthy new year darling.......love love love Ria...x !!
ReplyDeleteShe is simply exquisite, Penny. I love her hair, so beautifully coiled. And how her skirt drapes in tiers so gracefully. She's so very elegant. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm coming via email, right now.
SUPERB!
HER DRESS! The back of her dress, Penny! And she needs no face, none whatsoever!
ReplyDeleteHER PURSE! OK, to email...

YES, I love her so! Thank you for hopping on over to my blog again! Oh the years, how they have shaped our arts, isn't that so my friend? I am so excited about your doll here. The possibilities are right in front of us all!
ReplyDeleteYour doll has hit home for me today, Penny, as I have always loved the Victorian era. The women back then dressed so elegantly. I like how her hair swoops up, and her beaded purse is so special. She is just lovely. What will you call her? It is always like a ray of sunshine coming over here and seeing your sweet creations.

Yes, her porcelain colored skin is perfect for the PLAN...teeeheee

Sending hugs and hope you have a lovely week

Pretty sequins and beading Penny! Thanks for stopping by and Happy New Year! I think I'm tired...I just wrote "Birthday" instead of New Year but caught it. Lol!!

xoxo

Oh my Goodness, I just got here. She is lovely! I never saw needle sculpted "people" before. But this sweet, delicate lady is soft and feminine with perfectly coiffed Victorian hair and her stance is so lady-like. Another marvelous creation from our Penny!
ReplyDeleteGosh! She is just so sweet! I don't think I've seen anything needle felted quite like this! How pretty.
ReplyDeleteWow - she is just exquisite my dear. The purse is so amazing too. Looks like you have a wonderful start to the coming new year. Your creative spirit just comes forth in the sweetest ways. Have a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh.....there she is! The doll that inspired a little dark-haired girl to be born....
ReplyDeleteMy dear, dear friend, THANK YOU for always being there. Your visit tonight is such a joy! Well, I am not fabricating any paper dresses....that is behind me unless someone commissioned me at a descent price to make one, but that isn't going to happen too soon! No, I'm taking to the pen, and that suits me just fine. But anything beautiful makes me smile, but now after that quote, "Look for beauty where it is not supposed to be found", I suspect my inspiration source will be filled to the brim as I use this year to look for more beauty than meets just the eye.
I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THE LITTLE MISS in a red beret! LOVE, Anita
