We had a lovely visitor at our meeting. Her name is Joy and she has moved here from South Africa. (This is not Joy.)
Some friends heard about TDD and thought she might like to check us out. She even brought some show & tell, and what a treat...!
Joy not only made the adorable bear, pictured above, but had a business in her homeland where she made porcelain dolls. This little girl was absolutely exquisite.
Joy makes everything on the doll, from head to toe. The craftsmanship is beautiful.
Our Talequah friends were able to attend the meeting! It's always a treat to see Shari & Joyce. (This is not Shari & Joyce, but dolls they brought.)
Our "other" Sherri, brought her Hoffman doll, just returned from traveling the country!
We are proud of Sherri! This is not the only doll of hers that's been chosen by the Hoffman Challenge to travel in the trunk show. We're also impressed that she made something so pretty out of fabric that everyone thought, well, challenging :)
Connie brought an angel without wings last month. This month she brought the finished wings. The angel is ready to fly to her new owner!
Our meeting concluded with our second favorite thing to do (after Show & Tell)...
Fabric Pillaging! Thanks Sherri, for bringing goodies to share!
We have a fall workshop coming up in October. Stop back for fun pictures from that!
Hi Kimber, thank you so much for following my blog, because meeting you has bought me here. I did not see a place to follow here, so I followed your other blog. I love all the dolls, you are giving me inspiration to spread my wings and try more doll-making techniques. I am delighted to have found you. Your sites are wonderful !
