Zwergnase Junior Miriam....

This young lady arrived today and I'm really impressed with her!  She is Zwergnase Junior Miriam but she is the bigger size of 55cm (the regular Juniors are 50cm) and has a very similar body to the smaller girls.  I've noticed one difference though, she has a better neck joint in that the join is actually up the top of the neck rather than at the bottom, this means that she looks better in lower necklines....you can't see the join!

I love her pouty face, and like all Zwergnase dolls, her expression seems to change with just the slightest tilt of her head!  It's uncanny really!

Her name will be Jo as she reminds me of a friend of mine called Joanne.

I took a few photos of her in a new dress I made for her arrival.  Because I was working to just photos there are a few things I will change about my pattern.  I saw this photo:

And thought I'd try to recreate it for Miriam.  I would make the patterned part narrower next time and definitely try making the pockets lower, although I'm not sure how that will work as I still want the same dress length.  But all in all I'm pleased with how the dress came out!

Jo wanted to show you her collection of things found on the beach, she particularly likes the pieces of glass that have been washed smooth by the sea!

Thanks for visiting, I hope you all have a lovely weekend :)
