"Rusty Ann"

Doll by Ricki Beedell
from... Alberta, Canada

I have taken up your challenge. I haven’t made a doll in years, but with three granddaughters (and one grandson) I thought it was time to get back to the dolls. From the reaction of my 3 year old granddaughter Wendy is just the beginning. We have named “our” doll Rusty Ann and her bear Boe. Rusty was made with fabric I had on hand. Her dress is from fabric of a dress I made for my own daughter about 16 years ago. Her apron is from more vintage fabric. I’m looking forward to working with a “true doll fabric.” She was great fun to make!!! And I see more dolls in my near future. Boe the bear is a new interest of mine as well, needle felting. I think dolls and toys go hand in hand. Thanks again for such great fun!!! I will be looking for more challenges.

"Carrot Top"

When I was a little girl I was given a doll named "Carrot Top" and, although I can barely remember her, I think my Wendy looks like her. It was much fun creating her and I look forward to seeing everyone's interpretation!

"Sami and Jennife"

Doll by Leota Webb
from... CO, USA

Here are my two Wendy dolls. The one on the left is Sami. Her friend in blue is Jennifer, named after a beautiful bright eyed three-year old girl I know. They are dressed in dotted Swiss from the 40's. I made two dolls because in using the shiny side of velour, I made the first one with a horizontal stretch. She is chubby and cute, but I also wanted one made with a vertical stretch. These two little friends are very happy they found each other. I loved making these dolls!

"Wide Eyed Wendy"

Doll by Bettsi McComb

I wanted to show you the visitor that dropped by my house today. Isn't she a little cutie? She said she was a "wide eyed wendy" and that I should submit her to this email address. She was very sweet and well-mannered, but as you can see from the photos, she was longing to return to her meadow. So I bid her a sad adieu.

Thanks for a fun dolly!

"Asia"

Doll by Jody Kieffer
from... VA, USA

I saw the picture of a BJD in Haute Doll magazine and her face was mesmerizing. And when I saw her, I immediately thought she would make a beautiful Wide-Eyed Wendy. It took me four faces, two sets of arms, and some amputation with the feet, but here she is. She says her name is Asia and she is my belated valentine.

I made 4 of these cute little gals, but I used Judi's Bluette arms & legs instead of the original. I redrew the heads on Gracie and Polly to include ears. Izzy and Amy have Judi's original head.
