CAMEROON, TUNISIA, SINGAPORE and TAIWAN DOLLS

Today I am listing dolls from CAMEROON,  TUNISIA,  SINGAPORE, and TAIWAN
As always, you can see more photos, and information about the dolls on the website.
As usual I like them all, but I particularly like the little doll from Taiwan, at the bottom of the list.  She is a real character!  

I have also added five more dolls onto the "DOLLS FOR SALE" page.

As I am not able to go walking at the moment due to a fall (or should I say a skid?) coming off a very icey wooden bridge on a walk a couple of weeks ago, I am now hoping to catch up on cataloguing and listing more dolls!

 AUSTRIA, POLAND and LIECHTENSTEIN DOLLS

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my friends and followers.
I hope you are all enjoying the New Year.  I wish you all a very happy "Doll-hunting Season".
I am sure you are all familiar with that certain feeling which you get when you find an interesting doll.  I had that very feeling when I found the beautiful pair of Austrian dolls (below).  It really gave be a buzz.  I fell in love with them instantly!!  I hope you will like them too.  They are such delightful little characters!

You can see more photos and more information about these dolls (and the other two dolls) on the website.

MY MINIATURE KNITTING (commissions taken)

NEW PAGE
MY MINIATURE KNITTING (commissions taken)

"MRS PEARL STICH"
 * * *

I have added a New Page onto my Blog - "MY MINIATURE KNITTING (commissions taken").  To view the page, please click onto the title: "MY MINIATURE KNITTING" (commissions taken) at the top, right hand corner of this page.
I have always enjoyed knitting, since I was a child.  I particularly like miniature knitting and it occurred to me that not everyone likes knitting, so I thought I would knit for anyone who may be interested.  All my knitting is 1/12th. scale.
I would be able to knit any of the items shown on the New Page, with the exception of the "Edwardian-style wedding dress" which took me a total of one hundred and seventy seven and a quarter hours to complete, and the veil took me eighty eight hours to complete.  (It was knitted with sewing thread).
