Tess
This is a wonderful project and it is so kind of you to share it with us
all. I am in awe of your talent - woodworking and lacemaking. And then you
have written a "how to do it" booklet as well.
Congratulations, and many thanks!
Now all I need is someone to make a wooden "Queen Anne" doll for me to
dress:)

Those who might be interested in a project that I have been working on
for a very long time might like to take a look at <http://
www.cs.arizona.edu/patterns/weaving/this-month.html>. Scroll down to the
bottom of the listings.
These are the complete directions for making and dressing an 18th century
wooden "Queen Anne" fashion doll. It was made taking measurements from a
doll of the period and is completely accurate as to construction. The
hardest part was the face. However, going up to a doll group meeting in
Ottawa and "meeting" two other dolls of the same period--real ones--all
three looked alike, so I guess I got it right.
