More pincushion dressforms

Gee whiz, two posts in two days. I'm on a roll....
I've just finished two more of my pincushion dressforms for our local fabric shop. I thought they looked pretty swishy, and that's a completely unbiased opinion...;o)... They have totally different looks because they simply just took on a life of their own and I just went with the flow. The faces are done with Sherry Goshon's "Joy" pressmold. The treatments for the hair or no hair, were inspired by Judy Wellnitz online class for alternatives to hair and the rest just came together from my imagination with what seemed to suit each one. I hope you enjoy these little ladies.... It's always hard to choose names, but one is "Bonnie Blue", the other simply "Plum".

  3. OH, they're lovely, Ro! Well done! The blue one is my favourite probably because blue is my favourite colour.

  8. Hi Shashi, Thank you for the compliment. Everyone says the same thing about sticking pins in them, but they really do make great pin cushions... Romona
