Finishing long ago project

This was a long ago project that was started in Sherry Goshan's group but I fell by the way side and did not complete it.  A few days back I came across it while I was searching for something. It feels like story of my life that I find things that I have long forgotten about which come to light when I am searching for something entirely different :-)  I have decided that it is about time that I completed it. The doll body is a pattern by Sherry Goshan's and the head pattern is by Marie Anne of Dollmakers Journey. 


I have been searching for the right fabric for her skirt and this is what I think will look good on her
I just realised that many of my dolls are dressed in green and red combination! I tried other colours for this one but green is what she will have to have since I had already half dressed her and then abandoned her:-)

    She'll soon be ready to show off to the world now. What a gorgeous green silk. Red and Green is such a fabulous combination.

    I'm like that too - I find things all the time I started and never finished. She'll be great - love the pose she's in right now. I use to have long slim legs like that - a long time ago, lol.

    I find that I tend to use the same colour combinations over and over unconsciously. I guess it's what you inner muse is drawn to:)

    She's a very beautiful doll and I'm glad you found her. She'll look gorgeous in the green. I have a few dolls that I've put aside and hope to complete one day.
