J girl and her new doll

J girl's new doll came few days ago and she immediately give her the name of Annalise in part because she got blond hair. And for Disney fans, you will know Annalise is the princess' name in the movie "The Princess and the Pauper". The princess had blond hair and the pauper(Erica) had brown hair. So funny how children remember these things.

Yesterday, J girl played with "Annalise" for a long time. In the picture, J girl is pretending "A " is sick with high fever and she is feeding her and taking care of her. J girl has also been taking "A" to sleep at night. So cute!

"A" is a 9" doll is handmade by Evi Dolls, a women's co-op in Brazil.

She has blonde hair and blue eyes. She wears an undershirt, an apron dress, bloomers and booties. All of her clothes can be taken on and off. Her facial features are hand painted.

She was made using all natural fibers. Her hair is made from mohair and wool. Her stuffing is from clean, carded wool.

How I wish I know how to make a doll as precious as that!
