Meet Hope! She is 14" tall and dressed in antique silk. She is very sweet and to me looks like a very young lady about 12 or 13, the same age as my daughter.
She is fully jointed and hand carved from basswood that grows on our acreage. Her eyes are antique black glass pupiless eyes and are slightly down-turned. She has dotted eyebrows just as her sisters from 300 years ago. Hope has a sweet little smile.She is wearing a tiny chatelaine that I made just for her and it is clipped to her hand stitched apron so she can help around the castle!
Her bodice and the stripes through the skirt... my absolutely favorite colour.
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful.
