Fairy Plans Afoot
Fairy plans are gathering momentum here at the house of matching pegs. The dolly is going to be a fairy to hang on a bag, like Davo - Amelia’s request.
We have a busy day of appointments (and are in the thick of the school holidays) so I have no time for more details, but I can share a sketch, (this is for you Brittany).

I really like the fairy. She’s very pretty. Thank you Claire!

oooh! That’s a very pretty face - have you handpainted that? I’m looking forward to seeing the finished product.

I’m so glad you like it Brittany.
Lily,
The face on the cloth doll is drawn on with a Pigma (or Zig) Pen (very fine permanant pens for drawing on cloth) and the cheeks are coloured in with Derwent Artists pencils. These pencils are a little waxy and if you set them with a hot iron, they last pretty well on something that is not going to be laundered.
