Well here she is. This is Clovie, named after the clove, cinnamon, and orange peel tea I painted her with. She does smell lovely, not too strong, subtle. I enjoyed sewing her together and tweaking her raggedy expression. I wanted to keep it simple, so I added a small hair bow atop her pretty orange curls and then wrapped her heels with a ribbon of eyelet.
I tea-stained the clothes in the same liquid that I painted her in. Her top is a pretty, simple eyelet with a vintage cotton lace trim that I added on. Underneath it all she has on a pair of simple torn-edge short pants. I enjoyed trying to perfect her satin-stitched nose!
I really enjoyed sewing her. Now onto my next Halloween doll! Can't wait to show him off!!!
