I need to stop making itty bitty things because I have the hardest time photographing them. It's difficult enough just trying to get a nice shot that's in focus.
But when your models start running amok, hiding in baskets,
going for joyrides in stolen walnut rides, it can be REALLY aggravating.
Stop!! What do they say? Never work with animals or babies?
These babes were inspired by these little dolls I first saw on Lilli Confetti's flickr stream. And then Laurie found some thrifting this summer. Anyone know their origins?
I better go, it's way past their nap time. Happy Monday!
I don't know their origin but they are so cute. I love the little things you make.

They're great, and I love their little facial expressions! Oh and I think you managed to do a great job with the photos, despite their mischief!

If you don't sell any would ever consider telling us how to make one? I just love all of your work.

I love these, Myra. You are the master (mistress?) of little things! I also love the way you can't tell just how little they are til you get to the photo of them making off in the walnut car. But why is the one in red so sad?

Oh yours are the cutest. You do really great work!!

I just love how you've combined so many different media in each doll. There's sewing, crochet, painting, you could even do embroidery, needlefelting, whatever! They are so great, you're really remarkable.

They are all very cute, but I certainly loved the walnut oh wheels. Myra you are just amazing!!!!

for christmas this year i want to make a dozen itty bitty babies for my daughter because we love the book The Rainbabies so much. It is about parents who take care of 12 itty babies and then are given a daughter of their own. It is a favorite and beautiful book. I couldn't find something just right - and now I have. You inspire me so much with what you do and to come here at tehe nd of a long day and find this is better than anything else I could imagine. Thank you for what you give to us and for using your talents in so many ways. I hope i can imitate these. THANK YOU
