Friends!

Don’t these two look like they would be great friends!?!  You might remember my first try at this pair from my Toys and Toys post.  I am trying to perfect these two, so I can start assembly lining them for my craft show in September.  Some of my thoughts on the pair are:

1.  The major changes for Sam the owl were: he has a head (separate from his body) and he gained wings!  I absolutely love him, but want to try again!  I want to make his head a little bigger and try to conceal where I sealed him up a little better.

2.  One of the major changes from Pammy for this doll is her face.  I used embroidery floss and buttons to give her a simpler more playful look.  She also can hold her head up!  Pammy had a more wobbly head.  I think the biggest change of all is that her dress is also her body!  I didn’t have to sew her clothes!  She was much easier and I just love her!  I think the next time I am gonna try to make her a little smaller and make her limbs a little more proportionate.  Caleb lovingly said that this doll looked like his beloved Emily.  I thought that was the cutest thing, so this line of dolls is going to be named after my best friend, Emily Morgan.

Details:  Please view my store, edstitches, to see more pictures of Sam.  Sam (about 22″ tall) is $22.00.  Emily (about 22″ tall) is $20.00.
