Thought you'd like to see a close up of Manami-Chan. I machine stitched the pattern, using gold metallic thread, on the green material that the sleeves are made from and I put dried lavender inside her body. The face is hand embroidered and that is definitely not my forte, but I tried. LOL!!


Pauline and I really enjoyed making these dolls for Yoriko (Thanks Pauline) and I'd love to make some more but I'll probably digitise a face for next ones.

Thanks for peeking. Hugs n roses, Meganne

How sweet of the two of you to make these for Yoriko! They are just precious. I did see a picture somewhere of the two of them together. Very different and very well done! They are a wonderful gift for a wonderful lady!

This is lovely, I like the embroidered sleeves and the embellishment in the hair. The machine in the picture gives an indication of the size. Job well done!

Sorry Martine but the difference in size can't be determined by the picture due to the angle I took the photo, as much as I tried, the perspective is all wrong. LOL!!!
I didn't measure her size, dopey me. hahaha! If I ever make another one I will measure the finished size. Hugs n roses, M

Meganne Manami-Chan is delightful. Ah I have just noticed that she is holding a fsl cherry blossom. The blossom in her hair is just like the geishas I saw in Kyoto. Will this be a new sewing career for you?

You are one very clever lady. She is stunning. Glad my little Mai-chan has a mate :)

I don't know about clever, but I think they are both gorgeous, besides you chose the material. :-)
I suppose Yoriko could have named them Polly-Chan and Me-Chan seeing as they're mates. :-)))
HNR, M

Meganne, I thought the sleeves are so beautiful, very Japanese theme, and I would never realize that it was embroidered! The first thing I noticed was the wonderful lavender fragrance when I opened the pack. I just love them! As I write this, they are smiling to me :) Thank you so much!!! Watch you mail next days :) Love and blessings, Yoriko
