Beautiful!!!  Really beautiful!! bear_wub
I have a real soft-spot for cloth dolls, and this little ballerina is superb!!  I particularly like her face - you have done a great job!!

P.S. I have just had a little look at your website, and your cloth dolls are superb.  Their faces are just perfect.  I love them all.

So, so pretty.  I love the face; it's so soft and lovely.  I thought at first it might be a transfer but no, it's a BumbleBearies original!  I love soft cloth dolls, too.  Will have to go check out your site ASAP... bear_original

Thanks everybody for your nice comments on Raggedy and also tx for taking a look at my other dolls.   Glad you like them. 

Shelli.... she is not totally "original" Bumblebearies I suppose... in that her body parts are from a pattern by another doll maker.....   However, her face is definitely my work...and the shoes, hair, etc.. are my own idea....

I love the face part the best about dolls.  For the course I am taking now..it is cloth over a sculpted cloth face and is proving to be a bit tricky...give me a flat face any day I say!
