About the creator, in her own words:
Hi, my name is Gina and I am a "Craftaholic".
I see something and have to try it out for myself.
I have only recently started Doll making.
It wasn't until some one asked me what my "special" toy had been as a child,
that I realised I never had one! I bought a couple of "How to" books
(credited on my blog posts) and started making items just for me....
but I am rubbish at hanging on to stuff so gave most of them away.
I figure they will be much happier with someone who "wants" them that much lol.
Yes I believe that Dolls have spirit/souls. I believe everything we make with passion
gains a spark of life from us, and that it transfers to whomever the doll resides with.
So far this year I have made 12 dolls (knitted and cloth) and only kept 2 for myself.
I lied...I have 3...Fay the Funky Faerie lives in my craft room lol.
The others are Hortense and Horatio
(they represent me and hubby so I could never part with them).
In the past I have made 2 clay dolls and "altered" plastic Skeletons
for various Samhain events, but I have to say I am really loving cloth dolls.
I just love how the characters emerge as I am stitching them.
Hope you enjoy my creations. Love As Always, GINA XXX
