Preparing

I have not been doing much by way of creating things lately. I have generally been busy preparing for my forth coming trip to States next week. Some time ago I had designed my Silk Fairy (her picture is in my blog banner) which had very slender fingers and I thought I would never torture myself again doing such slender fingers but I was challenged again to do slender fingers for Sherry's class doll so here they are. I did surprisingly well without any blowouts. Only one finger got a teeny weeny hole because I pushed it too hard lol! Not bad is it?. Those hands are as slim as a pencil. In the picture one cannot really get an idea of the size.

  1. They look perfect to me! I'm still scared of hands -I tend to get that 'spread out spade look' with separate fingers and I've yet to try wiring some.

  8. Very pretty hands, and I know how these fingers can be a challenge to turn!!

  9. I so admire your ability to make such small and elegant hands! Trying to turn hands and fingers is one of the things that put me off making cloth dolls- oh so frustrating. But you have certainly met the challenge and did a wonderful job with these hands. I look forward to seeing the rest of the doll when you have finished with her.
