Oh my, this one was fun to make. No major errors, so I guess I am learning from doing the first 2, which I fooled around with for months. Also have a Berenguer to post. I named her "Leah" after a friend. The first outfit is the one that came with her, which I altered and embellished and the 2nd tiny outfit I found on line. This mohair is the finist texture I've used. Any comments are welcome and thanks for looking. Huhs, Sandy
Oh my gosh, girl! She's sooo cute! I can't imagine rooting a 6", I have enough trouble with the bigger ones. You did an incredible job! Just love her. Melinda
This baby was easier to root that a big one bacause the vinyl was very soft and the needle slipped in so easily, but the hair was so fine that it was a bit slippery. I'm so happy you like her. Thanks so much, Sandy
Adorable! Her hair color looks completely natural for her skin tone, and the outfits look perfect on her.

I sure did use a 5x magnifying visor, because I can't see squat - even use them on parts of the big dolls. I can't imagine trying to paint eyebrows and tips of fingernails without wearing that thing. I also have a 18/0 paint brush I got at Joann's for about $3.50. Gee whiz, I've never been asked questions before. Thank you. Sandy
Bigger lettering...for me and you..hehe. Okay the thought came to me that if you could get a good deal on some of these 6 inch babies, you could probably sell these little ones for a good profit. I mean this baby looks perfect. You would think she was at least a 7 m0 preemie. There is a market out there for the tiny babies. I even think I'd send this one to P.Secrist himself. Maybe it would end up in a magazine!!!! (now that's a weird looking icon)

Thanks Aviva - The thought did occur to me that there might be a market for the wee ones. The one I did, I got for $10 by taking a class with Pat at Idex last January. And I did send a email last night to the Secrist Co. to see if they would like some pictures. We'll see what happens. Thanks so much for your interest . Sandy
