Bride Lovely on Her Wedding Day


There is much to describe as there are many things that happened between the last presentation. Of these things, the blouse has been beaded and aurora borealis stones added. It is a shame I couldn't get the twinkle right in the pictures. The jewelry, a simple "platinum" band with stone, and "diamond" earrings. Her veil is silk illusion with appliquéd with lace which was beaded and had stones added. I made the veil in a square and not a round. (I will produce this in a pattern for late summer publishing and you will be able to choose a rounded corner or a squared corner.) The veil is attached to a lace coronet which is also beaded with pearls and stones. Her bouquet is created with "silk paper" with lilies around the bottom, a small circle of fantasy flowers with aurora borealis centers, and a well formed center rose. It is wrapped like contemporary bouquets.
I hope you have enjoyed watching this doll be dressed for her wedding in her grandmother's gown. I have packed her away until I can figure out how she will be displayed. Thank you so much for your support and I look forward to bring more projects as this one to you. Stay tuned, I have plans!!!

Thank you so much for all your kind comments. They are most appreciated. There was no Patricia Rose mold for this doll. I took a class from her and this was the product. It has been a pleasure sharing her with you. Kathi
