Sunday update

Update on Nancydoll

She's getting there & still smiling thru all the poking she's getting in the process. I gave her a crystal (2mm) ear-ring to add a bit of BLING.

As I bead this doll, I have my sister much in my thoughts.. Nancy used to be a hair stylist & does Ballroom Dancing & she made her own costumes for that. She is a very accomplished Woman & always looks good. She power walks to keep fit & her dancing also helps to keep her slim & flexible

She is on extended holiday near Perth, in Western Australia, helping her DIL out with the children, while Phil (my nephew) gets settled in a new job out in a mining town a million miles from nowhere...

Hi Ellen,
Nancy dollie looks great!
I like the shape of these dollies! It looks like you're putting them inside of a missile and they're smiling from the window. :-)
Hugs,

I love this doll and I love the idea of portraying 12 important women in your life. I am currently doing the last of my kids as I remember them as little ones.
