Lolli

Almost every dollmaker I talk to has a favorite size.  Even though they love trying new dolls they always seem to come back to a certain size.  For me it's small dolls.  I love the big ones, you can get so creative in clothes and accessories, but to me there's something so sweet about a wee dolly.  Maybe it's because those are the ones my children love the most.

I decided that I wanted to try and make a very simple doll.  One that would be easy to dress and not have a ton of hair to fuss with.  This is what I came up with...  meet Lolli.

Lolli is the first of what I hope to be a few little 8" dolls that I'll be making.  She's a solid little doll with button jointed arms and a cap that is stitched on.  She also has a sweet little ruffly dress.  Lolli would be great to carry around because she's light and not very big.  She loves lots of snuggles and hugs.

I'm always looking for feedback so if this is the type of doll that you'd love to see more of, please let me know!  :)
