Welcome to my cozy little corner of the world! I'm Dorothy--dollmaker, gardener, fabric dyer, and perpetual learner.
Fabric
The fabric I use is very important to me. For the skin of my dolls I use the highest-quality cotton interlock available. It's made in Switzerland and conforms to European eco-standards. For the doll clothes I dye most of my fabric using plant-based dyes. Many of these plants I grow myself!
Wool
My dolls are stuffed with wool. Clean, soft clouds of sheep's wool. I love working with such a wonderful ingredient! Your child will love the weight and warmth of a wool-stuffed doll. Even my dollhouse dolls are wrapped in the same lovely wool which makes them so easy to move and pose.
Love
Most importantly, I love the entire process that goes into making these creations, small reproductions of that which is most precious to us, our children. Sewing, knitting, crocheting, stuffing, embroidering--I can hardly believe I'm allowed to do this for a living! It is such a privilege that I strive to put my very best into everything I make. And yes, a lot of love goes into every doll.
