I've created a Shutterfly gallery to showcase some of my nature table dolls. The site is called Spinneret. Come visit! I've placed a link on the sidebar of Saints and Spinners, and I'll add to the gallery as I create more figures.
Great to see them all together like that. It boggles my mind how many hours and how much love you have invested in all those figures. And I love Spinneret as the name.
Book Chook, in case you were curious, it takes between 6-9 hours to sew each of the large dollies and 2-4 hours for the small ones (depending upon the amount of detail and whether or not the doll requires legs).
Timothy, I hope your browser decides to cooperate soon. I didn't even think about that when I created the site.
Jules, I just added a daffodil prince, which I thought you'd appreciate.
LSM: Thanks! As you've probably guessed, there is something in the works for you.
I *love* the pussy willow lady and the Snowdrop girl. They are all so beautiful! When I see things like that it makes me want to try making some, but yours are so charming!
BlueMamma: I bet yours would be lovely. By the way, I decided that I actually would open an Etsy shop. At this time, it's just a storefront until/unless I actually decide to do something with it. Here's the empty storefront: Alkelda.etsy.com
I may put out a call to my readers to offer suggestions/wishes for the shop. I'd want at least 5 dollies ready to go by the time I would officially open up the shop.
I am a musical storyteller in Seattle, Washington. I make embroidered wool felt dolls: Alkelda Dolls. Full disclosure: I am neither a saint nor a textile-spinner.

Beautiful!
What a great site! And those Winter dolls are, in particular, so lovely.
And I see Piper's Forget-Me-Not! WOO HOO!
I'm afraid I can't have a look just yet - I need a better browser. I'm sure it looks great, and I hope to see it someday soon.

Thanks, all!

It's getting to be planting season here, and you've inspired me to get some crocus. Oh, you. I will definitely check out the new site!
Beautiful gallery! I noticed Poppy right away!
