Dolls in process and studio

The "Cloth Doll Artistry" group is having a doll blog hop starting in March. You can visit other doll maker's blogs via the links provided and see what they are working on. Thought I would post a few pics of current projects and a few studio pics.
One of the dolls I am working on is a pattern by Barbara Schoenoff. I have one already made and two in process. I did things a bit differently from Barbara's pattern. I did not feel any need to dress the first doll. I like her just as she is. Barbara's pattern is very long and lanky. We will see what happens with the other two.

 We had to totally replace the upstairs area of our house 2 years ago due to massive roof leakage. It was horrible. But I claimed the upstairs for my own and that is wonderful. My husband has a small computer desk area and the rest is mine. We did all the work ourselves except for the reframing of the roof and the roofing. We shelved in the under eave area for my fabrics in a couple of areas on both sides of the room. We put up metal gutter for my bias, rick rack etc.. on both sides above the fabric areas. This is the largest side of fabrics.

                                                     

This is the other side of this area. Lots of stuff stashed over here!

I had to figure out how to get all this stuff arranged so I could get to it. Ended up with a cubby hole behind the drawers with laces. I keep a rolling cart there. I can pull it out if I want to get into the corner and hide.

 

This is one of my other doll projects. I am participating in a "Maggie Bessie" challenge with the Vintage Cloth Dollmaking group on Yahoo. I am using the "North Carolina Cloth Doll" pattern by Bradley Justice. I have two started. 

I have a couple other things going. I will post more later.
