If you like to see my new dolls , make you you save me in your favorites when you visit me there!*grin*

Sophia

I have been working many hours every evening ... I am doing so many things at the same time, one would be dizzy to see *me*. grin. My children knows me well and they are always ready to say a kind work to encourage me or to make me coffee at 9:00pm, grin. Yes, I drink strong coffee right before I go to bed too . I grow up in a coffee farm in Brazil and as far I remember I started drinking coffee when I was probably two.

Okay, about Sophia.... I posted her prototype and her plaster mold. Last night I poured porcelain and it is now , what is called leather dry. I will have to wait few days to have it dried and then fire it bisque, in which is a soft fire although the porcelain still very fragile but can be sanded in water . Next , I will fire porcelain then comes china painting. I still have a long way to go but I thought to share as I progress with her.

Pink is pretty too!

While I was making Isabella , my mind was so focus on the mold making that took way any thoughts of afterwards ... well, now I only think about playing with her... can you tell?*grin*

Pretty in blue!

This little outfit is very simple , but I like simple too.*grin*.

I sew it last year and saved it for Isabella. It is 100% cotton . I love silk ribbons, always have. If you ever received a hand painted card from me, you know what I mean. *grin*.I can use silk ribbons in so many things and lately I have discovered that one can make flowers and adorn an edge of a dress in a simple but elegant way.

Playing with her.....

Ohhh, Iam having so much fun with Isabella. I *love* the way she poses ....

Innocent Isabella...

Yes, she is here and available to become yours!*grin*

I am pleased to introduce you to my first porcelain Ball- Jointed Doll, Isabella Monet. I started working on this project in June 2008, and after many trials and adjustments, I have been able to create this doll.
She is able to articulate much like a human being, allowing her to be posed in many fun and life-like ways. T o view more pictures, or to order an Isabella doll, please visit my website http://www.patitadolls.com/ . I will be happy to answer questions at patitadoll@msn.com .

Isabella is ready!

For all of you who have been following me on my journey in making porcelain BJD's, and for those of you who have recently found me, I am pleased to tell you that I have finally worked my molds to be the way that I have dreamed of for a very long time!*grin*
Unfortunately, I came down last night with a nasty cold and am now bedridden. My plans have changed, so instead of taking pictures of Isabella today, I will have to postpone it until next week and just let my sweet family take care of me... *grin*
Please check here next week as I will be blogging many times with updates and will be including complete and detailed nude pictures of Isabella.
