♥♥♥
IMGP6281a1 This year I have had the lucky chance to use the opportunity and visit the International Doll Festival, 01th-08th of May, being hold in Neustadt (Germany ) for over then 25 years now. That was an experience of the very special quality. The real feast for all antique and art doll lovers.  All kinds of antique and modern art dolls, created with porcelain, polymer clay, wood and papier-mâché has been to be seen and admired.

Anyway, my very special interest was set on dolls, made with fabrics and wool. Of course!  :  )
I just could not stop admiring those beautiful creations by Sandy Fukala, Anne Kohlschmidt and Elisabet Fluer-Tomamichel.
