italian outfit

"La mi' cocca Deruta®" is a creation by Anna Lisa Piccioni of  "Le Antiche Fuseruole Deruta" (Deruta Majolica Beads, there's a site in English: http://www.puntiantichi.com/deruta-majolica-beads-and-buttons-the-fuseruola-an-antique-umbrian-token-of-love-in-majolica-from-deruta/ ).

Their slogan is: "She wears handmade Italian dresses only"! 

Last week I went to Zagarolo, near Rome, where there was a lace makers' meeting and there I bought the kit to make my own doll. Her head is handmade and hand painted, it is one of a kind, I struggled for choosing one head in the pile, they're all so pretty!

I first saw these dolls in the magazine "Giuliana Ricama", then I found one of them in the blog by Sabrina, here: http://macramemodena.blogspot.it/2015/11/ancora-una-bella-collaborazione-la-mi.html. Sabrina designed the red and blue dress. Lovely, isn't it!

The skirt is an adaptation of an edging from "Il chiacchierino - Selezione TRICOT - 1990", the top is just block tatting.

Nasvidenje.

It's inconvenient for any Lady.

Not me, I often go out without a bag!

I didn't glue, it's all sewed.
It's 20cm high.

dress dolls games

When did I stop dressing dolls? I can't remember but it could be yesterday... I bought that little porcelain doll in a market stall and it's got perfect colour's match with the mad tiny doily.

More is coming soon!
