Well Christmas has begun in my studio, this little gingerbread witch is called Gudrun and she is dressed in a delightful Acufactum fabric called Little Christmas Bakery. Gingerbread, cinnamon sticks and hearts abounding.
This little witch has tiger's eye to her heart with frankincense in her stuffing. A tiny piece of resin with a little essential oil. Warming for Christmas. I just love the colourway, the rich reds of Christmas with the homely gingers of the biscuits.
Gretel and Gudrun together, just showing their different sizes. Although I think what Gretel lacks in height she makes up for in hair!
Again both have tiger's eye and frankincense in their stuffing and each is dressed in the little gingerbread print from Acufactum.
Gudrun's dress is teamed with red dots while Gretel is teamed with ginger dots.
Gretel really makes me smile, I love her dark hair and her expression. Each doll is made to an exact pattern and facial features are delineated with dots but no two faces ever come out the same. The tiny microvariations must make all the difference.
I love the ginger dots with this fabric, it gives it a real warmth for Christmas. The fabric is covered with gingerbread and spices. Cloves, star anise and cinnamon to name but a few. I can look at this fabric forever!
