How I have created my babushka dolls

I love to sew dolls. Especially babushka dolls. The other day I have thought to create a special edition of Pearl Princess dolls.


So, my choice for materials - european natural linen and luxurious silk dupioni with shimmering effect for their bodies, handcrafted vintage lace pieces, linen lace and beautiful pearl beads for decoration. Seems like a great choice for the royals!
All their faces are made of cotton and face image in my unique drawing. They are really unique like  humans.
The bodies are ready, the faces are also - now is  time for hair. That is the best color to match with eyes? 

Girls  should think about their unique looks. After this hard task -  I sew on silk shawl the pearl beads


My beauties are  ready! Would you like to get one?
