1. You must email your partner and exchange names & addresses by May 12th. Mail out deadline is May 31st.
2.Body of doll should be 3”-5” (not counting the loop on top of head or beads hanging below).
3. Doll can be made from, and decorated with, any materials. (fabric, felt, beads, etc)
4. If you need ideas, do a google images search or see tutorials on youtube.

Maybell arrived in all of her prettiness! She is dressed to the nines in beautiful floral cotaure.(sp)
And look at the backside of her...she has a sweetle little butterfly that has gently hitched aride
on her flower.

Thank You Darlene she is adorable!!! Nice Job! I just love her!

Sent your Dotee out early (today)...as I got a little Mother's Day Money and was able to mail
out a few MJF pkgs sooner than I thought. No names or hints other than you will not be able to
say the one I made is "pretty"...but she was made that way on purpose. You will understand when
you get her. I never know what the doll will be until I start putting her together.

hugs and thanks,
peggy

Oh I can hardly wait to get your dotee, I am the same way my dotees never look the same. I think that is why I like making them.
I will let you know when I get it. I am so glad you liked your dotee.hugs.

Darlene...after you get your dotee from me and describe her on here. Then I will post pictures of
her...as I always take pics of what I make & send (if I remember to. LOL) Some times I get in such
a rush to get all my pkgs out...that I might forget to take a picture of some...but this one I did
get pictures of.

Maybell...is just smiling down at me in my Office/Craft Room. She is hanging on my Dotee Bulletin Board
with the rest of her Dotee Pals. I now have 11 Dotees and they've become a "Family"

Hugs,
peggy

I received my adorable little Dotee Doll Gypsy Rose. She is so colorful, she has a bright flower on her dress and is wearing a neclace of rhinestones that are turqouise and red around her neck. She is holding a large white button crystal ball. She has red beads large and small that make up her hair and a little green and white daisy pinned in her hair. She is wearing a green scarf that matches the green in her dress and a flower pinning it together in the back. Gypsys eyes are wide open and bright and she has rouge on her cheeks and big red lips...Welcome to your new home Gypsy Rose.
Thanks Peggy
I love it.
hugs
darlene

Darlene...here are the pictures of Gypsy Rose. I hope that gaudy face didn't scare you
half to death...but I did want her to look like one of those old hollywood Gypsys!
She was fun to make! Hope she adds some color to your collection and tells you a fortune or two.

Hugs,
Peggy

Hi Peggy,
I loved everything about her! Her face does fit the old Hollywood days as far as I have seen, but boy it does give her character. Thanks so much, she is hanging up with the rest of her friends....
Thanks.

Oh my goodness, Madeline, Rosina Renata is just beautiful! She is full of spring and early summer and her little damselfly companion is sweet, too.

Thanks for the Sweet William seeds, my grandmother always had those flowers and you just sent me a sweet memory of her garden.

Your doll will be coming soon!

By the way here is my collection of Dotees so far, for those inquiring minds that want to know! (Technically the little lamb is not a Dotee but was given to me with love my my 8-year-old grandson, so I think she counts, too...)
