The Dollmaker was reading a book set in the year 1076
where Redheads were being called Witches!
Can you Imagine that? Well!
Actually, Yes!
Indeed! Tinge-of-Insane Does suit her!
no no! ... she needs MORE Red Hair... and More Friends with Red Hair...
Ok, Orange
Right now the Orange
Curtains are up and the Light is Orange!
and
the Dollmaker's annual "Orange Obsession" is officially Underway!
In a brutally non-sequitur moment of Insight that only "Obsession" can spawn...
the Party Girl Witches led to..
Some call them "The Watcher Witches"
others prefer
"Witch Watchers"
We just wish to know Which Watch Witch is Which?
Big Thanks to Erika O'Malley who sent the Dollmaker tons of broken Watches
without which these Watch Witches could not have wandered forth.
(and also for buying two out of three of the Watch Witches for herself and her Dad!)
After a Two-year wait...
In the yard they were
Opening silently, grandly
while the Gardener was away...
And when she returned, head down in the rain
she felt them before she saw them...
The Gardener looked up- and- there they were.
Incredible 11-inch-long delicate bells, Melony-Yellow,
All opened perfectly, bright with raindrops!
The Angel Trumpet Blooms seem eager to introduce themselves
to King Midas's Daughter, Marigold
who is, for her part, overjoyed, to find Flowers her own size to talk to!
A whole Lotta Dollmaking going on!
The small but mighty Clothespin Fairy Dolls...
Led by a music strange and clear...
And it's not just a whole Lotta Dollmaking going on around here...
There's also Dragon's Nesting Mound Making!
These lifelike soft-sculptured Dragon's Nesting Mounds
simulating provincial Dragon Nest Constructions on craggy cliffs
will blend naturally
into most fabric terrains
each one fitting a baby dragon hatching out of an egg perfectly!
...Baby Dragons and Eggs included...
and the Dollmaker has not yet finished
One day Joyce Hazelrig taught the Dollmaker how to make these
stylishly Felted Tendril Nature Spirit Hats...
Sure, now everybody wants one!
...ahem... everybody except...
A Blue Water Goddess in the Curly-Lock Style
These Curly Locks are characteristic of the "Teeswater" Sheep
Hailing from Teesdale, United Kingdom, the Teeswater Sheep
have beautiful fine, long, high lustre locks, perfect for doll hair
and, the Dollmaker supposes, many other things...
