Beautiful rag doll

Peer at me through a criss cross vision...

I lovingly made this for the band Birdeatsbaby, now the doll is travelling the world touring with the dark cabaret band.
Made by dollwithbigeyes with trademark floppy head

Mismatched Teddy Bear

The first time I read this was at my Spotlight performance at the Storey gallery in Lancaster. My bear was made by me and a friend suggested naming him Bernard. He truly is uglily beautiful.
Mismatched Teddy Bear
I put you together in a mismatched form. I collected your arms, legs and head in the wicker basket behind my back door. I stitched your torso together with coloured thread and ribbon you look spectacular, a fabricated vision.
Your skin is soft to touch and a floral explosion of dainty twee prints and retro patchwork patterns. You are pretty to look at, tactile and plush but cold to love as you never grow old.
I tempt to put you on the shelf to collect dust and sit with the unused garden elves, but you are too pretty yet deformed to leave alone without a thought as I wonder how you will suffer without a hug or a mutter.
I unpick your thoughts with an rustic needle attached to pink coloured thread, you see I made a mistake when I sewed on your head.
But i make a hole in your stomach, where your stuffing silks out, looks like snow as I pull your insides out and it doesn’t hurt as I put pins through your skin you see it doesn’t hurt because you can’t feel a thing. As you treat my heart like a pincushion which bleeds unlike yours, it has too many holes and which can never be sewn.
As I sewed on your button eyes, you can finally see although through a criss-cross vision, you can peer at me as I cut through your thread with vintage scissors.
I scissor your vision as I cut through your thread and sew on your button eyes by making an embroidered incision. You cry through button holed eyes but you can peer at me, as i cut through your thread with vintage scissors. Your body is an eclectic mix of stuffing and fabric, but your heart is still intact and it bleeds tattered tears.

I made this Coraline style doll for my sister's 19th birthday. She liked it. It first looked very odd shaped, but when the hair and dress were added she was marvellous

I made this cheeky monkey just now. He is for my fabulous brother Harry for his 14th birthday! SHHHH don't tell him! I was inspired to make him from this website, which my very good friend Lewis recommended for me! http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=128500.msg1245924#msg1245924
Look at the monkey's heart bum! x
