Many may not understand my obsession with
Jane and the Dragon.
She is a young lady in waiting that wants to be a Knight.
She has a dragon that has choosen her to be a pet or the other way around,
whichever the case may be, they are a team.
I have made this doll before
and find it will make a good doll for the Jane I want.
The pattern is free and can be found here: (but it is written in russian or turkish)
or here
I worked the feet a little different to look like the shoes Jane wears.
Worked the legs as if they are they leggings she wears.
Not finished but put together,
I used extra clothing from another doll I worked.
I'm not a fan of naked dolls
Hubby said "She has no hair".
I worked this Poncho for an 18" doll and needed a model.
Poncho pattern can be found here: Poncho for You and Me
No hair, no problem, The hat pattern can be found here: Walking the dog.
I am now working another doll to keep from trying clothes on my original
Jane doll.
She's coming along.
Going through stash yarn looking for just the right color and weight for the layers Jane needs,
Found the gray and filament thread yarn for her side shields.
Working them in a crocodile stitch.
I am looking forward to the finished project.
Oh the dragon, yes the dragon, I 'm considering this pattern,
Not much else
God Bless and Keep Thee
til next time

I love making dolls after characters from novels, or my imagination. Is Jane and the Dragon a book? Sounds like one I would love :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd Jane is coming along marvelously!

Happy May Day to you Beth
DeleteJane and The Dragon was a Saturday morning cartoon.
I just fell head over heels for it.
Not quite sure but I believe it was produced in England for Qubo.
She has delightful adventures.
Thank you for the encouragement of the Jane doll, I hope to finish before State fair time, well, we'll see,
they have regulations about height.
Hope you are enduring the rainy weather,
sunshine coming soon I hear.
Take care,
til next time
