I am currently working on an "Uzbekistan" room box, and also on a miniature (dolls house size) knitted Aran jumper.  Hopefully, I will be able to show you those in the near future.  (There are not enough hours in the day!).
I also still have a lot of dolls to catalogue, and to put onto the website, so please keep watching!

A CAVE ON ONE OF MY RECENT WALKS.
I walked through the length of it, which is approximately fifty metres long.
The entrance is four feet high and the cave is just under six feet high, at its' highest.

A beautiful pink bush on the way to the cave.

Carole.
ENJOY!!

WORLD COSTUME DOLLS FROM KENYA, AUSTRALIA, ISRAEL and TURKEY

Today I am listing dolls from KENYA,  AUSTRALIAISRAEL and TURKEY.
You can see more photos, and information about the dolls on the website.
Thank you.

NOTE:  I have a large collection of postcards showing "people in costume".  I thought I would gradually show them here, but if there is enough interest, maybe I could add them (eventually!) onto a page of their own.
I would be interested to hear your thoughts about this.

Below the dolls pictured here is a postcard showing a group of American Indian ladies.
