DOTTEE DOLLS / COMFORT DOLLS



I am totally in love with Pat Winters wonderful comfort dolls. Not only the dolls themselves (which make you smile just looking at them) but the whole idea of donating these dolls to abused women who will know that some other woman somewhere took the time to care.

I belong to an on-line group called Dottee World that make (you guessed it!) Dottee dolls. I made my first two dolls last night and thought I'd share them with you. I still need a lot of work but I'm happy with them! I used some of Pat's ideas while still remaining true to the Dotte doll requirements of tail, hair, etc..

What do you think?
