Two doll makers, creative friends, Gilly and Jill make these delightful cloth dolls from a little wooden cabin at the bottom of their garden in Woodbridge in the county of Suffolk. A beautiful part of England in the east of the country.
It is the faces and the lovely details I find so appealing. The faces are hand embroidered in a distinct style and the hair is usually yarn with interesting clothes and little accessories all in varying fabrics and yarns. They use a lot of Liberty a particular favourite of mine.
I follow them on Etsy at

and they have a lovely story on Instagram, well worth having a peep at. A twist on a traditional doll done very well.
