Pippi Longstocking

She called me, I heard a little voice coming out of my cupboard : " Come on ! I know you wanted me to have a little naughty face, but I'm also a sweet bighearted girl ! I like this face Helen !"
  Okay ! I think you're right, you are a sweet girl and if I had a little monkey like Mr. Nilsson I would have such a sweet smile all day!






Pippi will be in my Etsy shop today.
The girl with the Dungarees will  also be in my Etsy shop 
I don't know why someone takes pleasure in ordering a doll but never pays for it. :-(


Lost ?!


Sometimes I have so many ideas I don't know where to start.
How do you choose?
I want to make a European Jay, a Gnome sitting on a cart pulled by a bird, a boy doll, a Barn owl , a white squirrel etc.
I have my patterns in front of me and keep changing my mind.
Help!

  2. Your dolls are a delight to behold!

    Sometimes I get stuck like you, with so many ideas that my brain can't seem to settle on one. When this happens, I read a good book, and while I'm doing this, see which idea seems to be the loudest for attention.

    It works, sometimes :-)

  7. Helen they are both just adorable! I know they will go to good homes. There are always one or two people do such things and do not follow through with a sale. It is their loss!!!

  11. Hi, Helen!
    I'm very glad you like my little animals:) Now I am preparing a few dolls and hope that they, too, you'll like.
    I try to have a lot of hope. I really like the site Dawanda, there are very good people who write good letters, and it gives hope that my efforts were not in vain.

    best regards and admiration for your work

  12. Hay Helen,

    Wat een prachtige en ontzettend leuke poppen maak je zeg!
    Ga je blog volgen.
    Zou het leuk vinden als je een kijkje in mijn wereldje komt nemen.

  13. They're both fantastic! I love all of your ideas. I can see how you're having a hard time deciding. Do you keep a notebook of them? I tell myself that I should. When I'm stuck for what to make next, I could turn to my notebook. It's either feast of famine with the flow of ideas for me and I often forget all the great ideas I didn't get around to making.

  14. Robin, this is such a simple but brilliant idea!
    It's like you describe, feast or famine, I'm relieved I'm not the only one, I begin to doubt myself when I'm out of ideas and I forget all the previous ideas.
    Thanks! And a big hug for Bullet!
