I love dolls... Bezbebekleri seviyorum...Dear friends, over three years ago I didn't even know what a Tilda doll was, but now that I've made a couple of fabric dolls, I just can't stop! They enchanted me, and I'm willing to give all my spare time to them! Here is my first one, please meet Violetta!
Now what is Tilda doll anyway? Tilda is short for Matilda and is also the name of the type of fabric dolls like the one on the left. They usually are tall, dressed in frilly skirts with lots of laces and have tiny wings :). Some dolls only have eyes, others have mouth as well, but the main beauty is in their pretty hair styles and elaborate layered dresses and accessories. Once I've made one, I can't stop, there are so many combinations of colours, ribbons and buttons to try! :) More Tilda's on my Pinterest board: http://pinterest.com/marinahoca/dolls/ Come back to see them when they are ready! So excited to show you the new toys I've made! I've hosted a workshop!!! Photos and results at the bottom! I've exchanged dolls with other talented doll-makers from around the world, I've received a doll from Malaisia, Spain, USA, Russia, Ukraine and Mexico :)) I'm also partners with a very creative lady - Liene and my dolls are sold in her online shop - http://lelleco.bigcartel.com/ Last updated 15.12.2016 Now I have my craft page on facebook! https://www.facebook.com/strawberrypatchesdecor/ instagram: @marinatoys and @marinahoca Fiyat ilgili emaile ulaşabilirsiniz: [email protected] Golden Santa with beautiful hand stitched beard.

Gunaydin! Meet my new girl. She's a bit shy... She rarely comes to people preferring wandering in the woods listening to the little animals like squirrels, mice and birds. Nobody knows where her house is. All we know is to spot her will bring luck and if you're lucky she may even give you her magic smile that would melt your heart. The name is Lisaa. Доброе утро! Знакомьтесь с моей новой девочкой.... Она редко подходит к людям, предпочитая бродить по лесам и слушать и наблюдать за такими маленькими зверьками, как мыши, белки и птички. Никто не знает, где ее дом. Но известно ,что если вы ее увидите, это принесет удачу, а если совсем повезет, то можно увидеть ее улыбку, которая завораживает. Ее зовут Лиса.
Gunaydin!
Good morning! My name is Polina. I live in a valley and every morning I wake up early to run in the fields, pick wild flowers and see nature waking up. My best friend is a wild fox. She doesn't live with me, but she's waiting for me in our secret spot every morning. Меня зовут Полина. Я живу в долине и каждое утро просыпаюсь рано ,чтобы побегать по полям, собрать дикие цветы и увидеть как просыпается природа. Мой лучший друг - лиса. Она не живет со мной, но каждое утро я ее вижу в нашем секретном месте. Dolls that I am working on at the moment:

Books!I'm soo excited! I found a shop here in Istanbul with the biggest variety of books on handmade stuff! I parted with quite a lump of money but in return got an amazing collection of books and magazines that I have already started to get ideas from! Just wanted to show off some of the books:
