I am speechless! At first I only had a cursory glance at your title photo and thought „wow, she not only made a dress, but the whole doll“ but only after reading your post I understand how you made the doll: from a corn nob!!! THis is so amazing, I have never seen such a doll, but I love it so much. My one grandmother had a big garden and my grandfather sold produce from it and as a small child I should help them picking fruits and so on, but I rather wanted to play :-DDDD So, my grandmother made me „stick-dolls“ I think this is a bit similar to your corn doll, but much more simple: she took a stick of wood and made paper dresses for her. I so loved these dolls…
Thank you for your exceptional entry and yourwonderful story <3

Hello @neumannsalva , what nice childhood memories, that's what I loved most about this post, that it connected with the little girl we carry and wonderful childhood memories came out, like your memory, where you helped your grandmother to pick fruits (more like play and eat them) and she made you stick dolls. I love when there is that wonderful connection of a story with memories. That happened to me as I was making the post, I remembered my grandmother and her corn cob dolls. Thank you for reading me and above all for connecting with the little girl in you.
