Working on a New Troll

This little troll is a work in progress. He measures roughly thirteen inches tall and is jointed. His nose is needle-felted. His eyes and teeth are hand embroidered. He is stuffed with clean carded wool. Lastly, I hope to make him a costume in the near future.

Great news!  I just added Google Translator to my blog because I have noticed visitors from different countries are stopping by.  I thought it would be nice to have that option available on my blog so you do not have to leave my site for a translator.

New Trolls Soon To Appear in My Etsy Shop

I've been working on new patterns or rather heads.  Two of the four have been made, but I dunno...they aren't working for me yet.  Anyways, I have put the final touches on the last of my baby trolls.  Here's a preview.  Thanks for stopping by.  Always enjoy the company.

Flopsie

This doll is articulated so she has lots of movement. My daughter is fascinated with making her dolls dance. So I figured I'd make her one that can really dance. For modesty, she is wearing one of my daughter's play silks. I haven't measured her, but I'm guessing she is roughly 24". She is made from all natural materials.

Update:  Flopsie now has a top and some bloomers keeping her warm now.  They are made out of minky trimmed with lace.  Just need to get a picture of her and then make her dress and some hair.

Details:

This doll is 12 inches tall.  The head and hands are made from hand-dyed cotton jersey.
The body is made out of four layers of muslin with reinforced seams.  It is stuffed with clean carded wool.  This doll is weighted with millet which has been baked and treated with lavender oil.  Eyes, mouth and hair are hand-embroidered with cotton floss.  Doll’s outfit is removable and washable.  The doll itself is not washable due to the millet.

And now the warning:

Keep your troll out of sunlight; otherwise, he’ll turn into stone.  Keep him away from all types of fairies, elves, pixies, gnomes and very small dogs.  Despite his diminutive size, he can still get up trouble.
