Mrs. Bird... a work in progress

Thought I would share some WIP... This is Mrs. Bird from a workshop taught by Katie Estvold of Sparrows Cottage. The project really appealed to me because I have been wanting to make a "theatre" doll for some time and I figured this would get me moving. Nothing like the structure of a workshop to motivate. Here she is with her hair... I used some cameltop roving to produce a very nesty hair-do.



And Mrs. Bird's birdy swinging on his perch.....


And this is what you get when you stand still too long!



More to come later.....
