Ball Jointed Cloth Dolls

This week I have been working out some new designs for ball jointed cloth dolls.  I have been trying out some new techniques for attaching the arms to the shoulders and new hand designs.  I thought I would give you a sneak peek by sharing some pictures with you.  I will be sharing these techniques in my future classes. 


If you would like to take an online class now I am currently teaching a class on how to make a ball jointed cloth doll on A for Artistic.  
If you would like to learn more or would like to sign up just click on the following link.

I am also teaching Mermaid Broach, a live class, in Clayton NY at the Thousand Islands Arts Center.  The class is offered later this month and again in August.  If you would like more information about the class and or to sign up you can send Marcia Roberts an E-mail

June Brides

I recently completed some wedding cake toppers I had started quite some time ago.  I had so much fun dressing the brides and making the topper base!  The base for the couple is covered with hand stamped rice paper.  I thought I would share some pictures of them with you.
