Merry Christmas to Me!

I just bought this doll for myself for Christmas. She's a Robert Raikes miniature African American Hitty doll, 3.5" tall, a "factory sample," which is a completed doll sent to the Raikes company for approval before they produce a lot. Unfortunately, the Robert Raikes Co. isn't operating right now. Hopefully, when times improve, they will open again, as I love his dolls. I have a full-size Hitty (6.25" tall) and another of his wooden dolls that is about 12" tall. His company made really nice wooden dolls.

Audrey's felted T Bear

I made this bear a few years ago. When I find the book, I'll give you the title. It might have been Felt It but I'm not sure.
