Re: you collect dolls?

Yes, she sewed the bonnet and had to leave a hole for the handle on the head to come out (the thing that twists the head to its three different expressions). You can't see the ruffle around the bonnet very well but it's very sweet.

The bird doll is actually a chimney sweep and he was made by Beth Robinson who has the website
Strange Dolls (http://strangedolls.net/)

You can find him and others of his ilk under the link marked "original limited series".

I love my voodoo dolls. Whenever I went down to New Orleans (which I did for a few years in the late 80s) I bought more voodoo dolls. Each year there were different styles. I especially like the doll with the skull and furs.
