Finished Cricket doll

Here she is all finished. One 18" doll dressed in her cricket whites including baseball cap with club logo. This is one of several dolls, to mark special events in their Daughters life that this customer has ordered from me. Thinking I should try to make a cricket bat for her to carry, will work on that today.
I really love the challenge that commission dolls give me.

Commission dolls

I make a lot of commission dolls. The customer sends me a photo of the person the doll is for and detail of how they would like them to be dressed and I get as near as I can.

14" Bridesmaid

The customer who ordered this 14" doll sent me a photo of the dress she wanted making. It is a replica of the one the bridesmaid is wearing. The ivory tulle skirt has individually hand cut petals inside. The customer has chosen the hair and eye colour for her doll making a unique gift for her little bridesmaid.

Cricket doll

I am working on a doll for a little girl who has just started playing cricket. Have made the doll and the trousers and polo shirt with the club logo. I am really pleased with how this is turning out. Got to make a baseball cap and trainers tomorrow,
