Gather Ye Rosebuds

A while ago Colleen Babcock asked me to test her new pattern that will be released soon. I understand it's gone to the printer.....so watch for that. This is my version of her and what a sweetheart she is. What is especially great, is that she's also functional with the clock in the bottom section. She was a joy to work on, Colleens instructions are very clear and easy to understand, plenty of diagrams to guide you along the way. What I especially liked was that I learned some new techniques and that her doll is different, not just the same body with a new outfit. It's a very creative doll and one you will enjoy making as well.

Also if you buy the kit that goes with the pattern, you get a bonus, which is her pin doll which also utilizes a time piece, a re-purposed watch face. Have a look here for Colleens example. Isn't she sweet. I hope to have mine done soon, but I have to get some ornaments done first to be mailed away. So here is the little lady and stop by to see Colleens original version and the others that have followed since.
