The sparkling, lively eyes are captivating and very nearly bring her to life. You've chosen well in allowing her to meet and greet the visitors to Autumn's Pantry.<br />Marjorie<br />Marjorie Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12104669798186181705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-54102076879477539172019-09-09T08:54:32.068-07:002019-09-09T08:54:32.068-07:00All the dolls are magnificent, but Fiona is a love...All the dolls are magnificent, but Fiona is a lovely old woman.Fabiolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12689788579523220109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-59978429627162173262019-09-09T07:49:25.907-07:002019-09-09T07:49:25.907-07:00Thanks Betsy!

I can never say no to anyone so I'd be in real trouble!!! You probably find though that if a little person intends to get created there is not much use in resisting - needs must after all!<br />I am not sure how much space will be left inside the shop for the customers to walk around on opening day, but hopefully enough!Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-85898217919806802112019-09-09T07:44:17.818-07:002019-09-09T07:44:17.818-07:00Thank you Drora!

What an outstanding creation she is!!! And seeing all those other wonderful mini people gave me a shiver or two of Doll Envy... *sigh*... I keep thinking I will make more dolls... but I know what happens.... they turn into little people who run my life for me! LOL! And that is even when they are NOT perfect but are just "test" versions!!! I don't know how I will ever reconcile myself to this... I do want to make a whole world full of more little people....! (You see what trouble I get into?) Meanwhile the shop is looking better and better and fuller and fuller... but that is exactly what Autumn Bounty is about! The place is stuffed to the rafters with everything we could need and now we can settle back for the loooong cold winter with Plenty of supplies! :):) Now I can't wait to see what more there will be!!! :):)Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-44519365455734671582019-09-07T20:30:36.483-07:002019-09-07T20:30:36.483-07:00There cannot be a better and more wonderful salesl...There cannot be a better and more wonderful saleslady than your gorgeous Fiona.

Gertie certainly does have a face that is full of knowing, kindness and wisdom, and Igor is pretty darn adorable for a bat!!!<br /><br />Being the maker of tiny bears with so much personality and soul, I bet you do know exactly what Pauline feels like! Each tiny entity is really alive in some way, and it's wonderful when they imbue our dollhouses with so much life! Someday I should love to have a wonderful BiWuBären of my own! ;O)Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-72886433215260745352019-09-07T01:59:29.550-07:002019-09-07T01:59:29.550-07:00I can easily see why you've thrown your reserv...I can easily see why you've thrown your reservation against witches and other magical creatures over board! *LOL* Fiona is stunning in every way and I can only agree about what you've said about her eyes. "Soulful"... that's a very good expression, her eyes are amazing, well, the whole figurine is, but the eyes are exceptional and among the details which decide if a doll is just a doll or a character. It was the same for me when I stumbled over Gertie Gumthrop, her gentle face touched me at once although I'm not (surprise!) a doll's person… And what made her even more irresistible was the name - my Grandma was called Gerti. *smile*<br /><br />I've enjoyed very much to share your joy about this wonderful purchase, Fiona is indeed perfect for Autumn's Pantry; she looks as if she was made for your shop with her face so gentle and friendly and her wonderful clothes. And it made me smile what Pauline says about her creating process: "Once they are finished, they come alive to me" - so true and so well said, I know exactly what she means. ;O)<br /><br />Hugs<br />BirgitBiWuBärhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624262663621307478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-84729323448303252112019-09-06T11:13:15.578-07:002019-09-06T11:13:15.578-07:00Thanks Marilyn!
