Good evening everyone I'd like to re introduce you all to Ted.
Previously restored by yours truly Ted had an unfortunate accident with the family dog. So he was sent back in for repairs to save his eye.
Thankfully I still had fabric put away from his first visit. Using this I've put a piece in the hole created by the dog. Then I've carefully stitch this in place using threads pulled from the fabric for a perfect color match.

One bay I'm working on an antique doll. The next I'm making pj's for a hairless dog.
I always have a wee giggle when I'm asked to make these.
The purple ones have been sent off to my customer. With my beautiful girl modeling a pair I made her.

Good morning everyone. Here we have my most recent patient to visit the hospital wing.
After the first doll hospital was unable to restore her. I was approached to see if I could work my magic. Of course I couldn't say no as I do love to take on new challenges.
After I carefully cleaned her I did some homework to see what she would have been dressed in originally. I've Then found suitable fabrics and lace for each item of clothing. These include a nappy, bloomers and singlet for her underwear. As well as a fully lined dress and matching bonnet.
Once all the garments were made it was time to fix her eyes. As I wasn't able to remove her head to do this I had to get creative. Using eyes recycled from a porcelain doll I was able to trim the whites away leaving me with the irises. These have then been glued into place completing her restoration.

Good afternoon everyone here is the most recent memory bear I've created.
Made using a skirt given to me by the customer. She is one of the full sized bears standing at around 35cm tall. As always I've match the eyes to the person the bear is in memory of.
There's also a piece of rose quartz inside the chest of the bear, giving her a heart.

Here we have ko^la the oldest patient I've had come to stay in the hospital wing.
Originally made by my customers great-grandmother.She used one of her old fur coats to create him.
Passed down through the generations at 150 years old it was time for him to get some much need attention.
Upon arrival I notice that he had a moth infestation. After dealing with th issue it was time for me to work my magic.
I've tried to save as much of his original fur during the process. And have been lucky enough to match new fur to what was left.

Good afternoon everyone I'd like to introduce you all "rhino", the most recent patient to visit the hospital wing.
Many years of being the number one toy had left him a little flat and in need of some TLC before heading to uni. While undergoing his surgery I've taken the time to check all his seams for any weak or worn-out spots.Once these where all fixed up he was ready to be restuffed.
Transforming him back to his former self in time for his university adventure.
