RE: Cyprus, handmade dolls - part 2

Hours of work to dress dolls like this, I see many are crocheted and knitted dresses.

My Mom only sewed and stitched dolls into traditional clothing of different regions. when not making our own clothing. Working to miniature sizes took time, precision to obtain the right look and feel on each one, each a masterpiece.

Not having an interest in sewing nor dolls even as a young girl I don't have any, my sister has kept some, and most were donated to orphanages where children seldom got given toys when we were growing up.

Thanks for sharing this brought back memories of neatly dressed dolls @ludmila.kynakou
