Hugs,
Here is a pic of my Izzy...BUT in seeing the pics i need to 'open' up one eye. The right one, and i am not so sure i like the color of the stain!!!!!!!! Artis from the izannah Group, had mentioned a really great point, about making the shoulder plate to low, because then the arms will hang too low, not sure if i have done that here? Hope everyone is healthy and happy and warm!!!

The texture of the stockinette looks fantastic. I know that you were a bit frustrated in working with the stuff with wide ribs, but it really shows up nicely in the end, I think. Was this a new stain? What do you usually stain with? This doll looks sooo much like the doll in the Carl Fox book.
Elaine,
This was a can i had bought from a yard sale, it said golden oak? Who knows maybe it was mixed, i am going to try a different color, so you see it too, the yellow color, not so good, i dont think? I like experiments , so well see what i come up with....wish me luck...
Oh and yes, i am really thinking i do like the wide knit!!!!!! It gives just enough texture!
She is so pretty Jackie and i love to see you dress the dolls, it's so fun what you come up with.
Oh Patty this one should be lots of fun! I havent even thought of fabric yet, but you are getting me to thinkin'!!! Thanks!!!!!!!
Hugs,
Jackie
I find it so interesting how I can work on a piece and then after taking pics realize that something needs fixing or adjusting (usually it is the eyes).
This piece is looking great Jackie!
Still thinking about you and your hubby.

Jackie, I think she looks perfect as she is! In life, nobody's eyes are symetrical, either side to side or top to bottom.
I think a major portion of the charm in Izannahs is their 'natural' quality...they are not perfect and if you look closely at originals, their eyes aren't symetrical either.
I wouldn't have noticed the difference in her eyes if you hadn't pointed it out!
We are, of course, our own worst critics.
She's fabulous, and no, I don't think her arms will hang too low.
Thank You Robin, You are a true sweetheart!!!!!!!
I am working a bit higher forehead for her,hehe. But it working!!!!!!!!!!!!!
