NO NAVELS......

I dont know if i should be drawing more attention to the events of last weekend but i feel i should say that the storm thankfully has passed, we have spoken on the phone and the air is now clear and now just want to get on with what we enjoy doing....(no more comments please as i dont think my nerves can take it !).......
i didnt plan to sew in december as there is always far too much to do and had planned to photograph some of my dolls instead to keep the blog interesting but i have decided to bring this forward and have started with the no navels (on a very cloudy day !)......my dolls arent going to provide the "eye candy" of steves dolls but hopefully you will still enjoy seeing them.......

This 1969 girl is my newest addition, as you can see her hair has been cut but you cant see that her body is caved to one side maybe from a doll stand, its not really causing any problems so i decided to leave it as it is, i was so pleased i took the risk on this ebay waif....

A 1970 girl this time with lovely soft long hair, i put her hair back in an alice band as there was so much of it, it kind of swamped her delicate face

This pretty girl is from 69 and her hair is totally different from the others, its layered and much silkier more like an english girls hair....

Ive said before that i think this 1970 girl looks like an angel, the lighting today (or lack of it) really doesnt do her justice, her fringe has been cut but i think it suits her being swept to the side...(looking at the photos again im not sure why shes looking so orange !)

  1. I love the first girl, she was a good risk indeed and I think her short hair in pigtails really suits her!

  2. What a lovely set of girls! I was not keen on these style of sasha's when I first started to collect but the more I see them the more they appeal.

  4. Oh, they're so precious. I will really enjoy seeing your girls. Reading your blog is like sitting down with a much anticipated magazine, I do so enjoy it. I will be looking forward to seeing (and hopefully purchasing) your outfits in the new year :)

  5. Like Dee I too wasn't keen on the No-Navel dolls until about a year ago when a little brunette, brown eyed girl on Shelly's website seemed to linger there forever and a day until I was literally hooked on her with her little pointed chin and rather startled expression. Needless to say she finally arrived here and has since encouraged two more, a 1970 and another 1969 to join her. Love all your four girls pictured here and am looking forward to 'meeting' the rest over the next month or so.
