I created Dorothy Knickers N A UpRoar from pattern from "Fiber Arts by Judi Wellnitz "http://www.artdolls.info

Thought I'd try using one of my clay masks I created,

I started using water color pencils to face and adding lambs wool for hair ...NOPE: Dorothy changed her mind..Just wouldn't have any of the usual.

I had her all dressed and Dorothy Knickers N A UpRoar said she did not like the way I had dressed her..SOOOOOoo

Here is Dorothy Knickers N A UpRoar , Who is named after my sister inlaw cause ,I thought her face looked like her.. I made boots for Dorothy and went wild with her hair, and yet stayed in a bit of my prim folk art area while I made her sleeves and skirt..

I boxed her bunns so Dorothy sits very well,Her face is clay, I used water color pencils and sealed it very good,
Her hair is fur yarn and all hand stitched on,

Her Dress is created from Batik fabric,

Her legs and arms are made from Linen,

Her body is from high quality muslin,

Her knickers from polish cotton,

Fingers are needle sculptured..

Dorothy Knickers N A UpRoar is 12 inches tall.

Made her some knickers..Can't have Dorothy Knickers N A UpRoar running around in the beautiful spring weather with no knickers on
Dorothy Knickers N A UpRoar is just peeved she isn't getting the perfect mug shot!! My camera is messing up for some reason..Now must go and simmer Ole' Dorothy Knickers N A UpRoar down,

Showing off her legs and boots to you. Sorry the pictures are so bad..

seeing what I can do with this wonderful free pattern fromFiber Arts by Judi Wellnitz www.artdolls.info/
I want to create another one using Judi Wellnitz pattern .Right after Easter Holiday . I want to do her in my whimsy folk art style...She is such fun to make , It just amazes me..
Funny thing about this little pattern is , to me it is a personal challenge of seeing how many diffrent ways I can make her, I have been pushing my self to step out and try new techniques and step out and shock myself... So this is a "Personal Challenge Doll Pattern" to ME:)
I Thank Judi for creating such a fun and free pattern for all of us to just chill and do some thing new and inspiring!!...so be sure to look at my http://www.flickr.com/photos/sympletymes/sets/ Hugs to all Sherrie
