I have already introduced Abigail in a previous post, but thought I would show her again, in her new outfit. Abigail is the main character, Sabela’s, little sister.
My talented friend Alli Easson made this costume for her. We had a blast discussing it. She is supposed to be wearing her favourite outfit — a stretchy jumpsuit which she’s outgrown — and rollerskates. She’ll be sitting at the dining table, swinging her feet gleefully (though she’s not allowed to wear rollerskates at the table, who could say no to this little face?) After many attempts, using different fabrics, Alli ended up using this orange jersey fabric, edged with a silver ribbon.
I am just so in love with this little character:
As I took the pictures, I had the strangest feeling that I was looking into her soul…
Definitely. She is utterly alive in every sense.
vERY Soulfull indeed!
clothes look excellent too.
jriggity
love the roller-skates! she’s adorable!
Yes!! I am looking at her pictures and I am looking into her soul.. Great puppet!
thanks guys! glad you see it too. it was kind of spooking me out a bit while i was taking the pictures…
truly amazing, i love the detail of “a stretchy jumpsuit that she has outgrown.” your work is inspiring.
Winsome soul. I feel tenderness for her imeadiatly. Her posture and body language is so perfect somehow!
Thank you for the inspiration!
