I'm a artist who loves to make art dolls,I am a married mother of 4 great people and I have always been creative, I don't remember a day that I have not created something, whether it was drawing/sketching or sewing for my family. My creations are handmade from my own designs without the use of molds and I like to use found objects as well as vintage fabrics. My passion, at the moment, is air dry clay and fabric, the possibilities are endless! I would say I'm a bit eclectic and whimsical, since Halloween has always been my favorite holiday, most of my art tends to lean that way, but Christmas is a close second!!! I don't know why I waited so long to do this, but I do know that I don't want to waste any more time. Join me in my ''self discovery'' as I show you how I ''see'' things in my little world.
Blessings,Flora

Hello and Welcome Alan, Thank you so much for the lovely comment . This medium is a very old style of doll or ornament making .I had wanted to make them for so long and I finally gave it a try about 2 yrs ago, give or take and fell in love with it , please let me know how it goes for you and also on your fabric doll, maybe post a link so that we could see it ? Blessings,Flora
Thank you so much for showing how you do this . I look at my Skelly king everyday (I didn't have the heart to put him away till Halloween), and just could not figure out how you made him. I just love him. Maybe when I finish the gazillion projects I have going I will attempt spun cotton. I love seeing your creations from inception to finish.
Carolyn You're welcomed and Thank You so much for taking good care of the SkellyKing!!!I made another one with wings and he flew away very fast ,but please let me know how it goes if you get time to work with spun cotton!!! Blessings,Flora
Hello and welcome Rhojo Baldwin!!! Thank you so much for the lovely comment about my work!!! I use Sobo white glue but no, it's just taking the time to smooth it out as you go, what I tell anyone who asks is that in order to get good results ,you just have to try the medium and get a feel for it.Let me know how it goes. Blessings,Flora
God doesn't give you the people you want, He gives you the people you NEED, to help you , to hurt you , to leave you, to love you and to make you into the person you were meant to be...

Absolutely love your work! Is there something particular about your adhesive that gives you the fine finish or will any thin glue type medium work?
I am not a sculptor. My cloth dolls have very simple faces. I really want to try these. Lovely!
