Happi amigurumi kokeshi
I haven't featured an amigurumi in a while, but Happi caught my eye. She's part of a beautiful series of dolls with some really lovely detailing with beads and embroidery.

:: Ça fait cot cot ici, ça fait cot cot là ::
The photography here is nearly as exquisite as the doll. I love the slightly ethereal look of this girl, too.
In English, the name of this photo would translate roughly as: "A cluck cluck here, a cluck cluck there."
As in, the sounds chickens make. I was going to say "bock bock" but I think that's German beer. :P

I Pity the Fool! Mr. T - needle felted
One of the most awesome pop culture inspired art/craft pieces I've seen lately.
This reminds me that I have all the A-Team seasons waiting in my Roku queue...

"Tita De la Garza"
I haven't featured a doll in some time, so I think this is a lovely one to revive interest with. Her features are lovely, as are the clothing and accessories. Even better, she's a character from a novel. I haven't read "Like Water for Chocolate" but I love it when people take inspiration from books.

Kitchen Witch Clothespin Doll for Mom
This charming little doll seems like a wonderful present for Mom! I love the multicolored hair, the hat, all the little details really make this wonderful. Check out Danner's Place photostream (link below the photo) for more great stuff!

Gardening Pixie
Here is a lovely little pixie complete with watering can! I love the details here: the fun fabric for the dress, the delicate wings, the striped socks, and the little hat.

a photographer
I love this simple, graceful photographer behind her camera and tripod. Another simple = wow!

Kappa #1 and #2
These adorable fantastic creatures are breathtaking - the faces are so beautifully expressive!

Carnaval no Rio
The details on these Carnivale ladies are fabulous - I love the feather details and the awesome shoes.

The Birthday Girl Wears Feathers
Another fave from Applehill Dolls. I have a fondness for feathers, though I'm not quite brave enough to make and wear a fascinator or hat (yet) and the outfit is great!

Toby the Elf - OOAK, polymer clay
Maybe I'm just a sucker for striped socks,but I really like this little elf with the sweet expression, fabulous hat, and excellent socks.
Yeti Trio
I love these - the fun fabric for tummies and faces, the slightly scary eyes, the punk-rock fur - all around awesomeness!
Brooding with Dove and Crow
As people may have noticed, I have a thing for art dolls. I have never made one myself, but I'm hoping one day my skills will be up for at least giving it a go.
Anyway, here is another that caught my eye recently. I love that she's not quite so distant and untouchable as some of the dolls I've posted lately (though obviously not a good candidate for playing - thus the "art" part of "art doll'). I love the hair and dress. The facial expression is fun too.

Cinderella by Marina Bychkova
I've featured Marina Bychkova's amazing dolls here before and new work has just been uploaded to Flickr. Her dolls are just breathtaking to me and Cinderella is no different - the distant, slightly frightened facial expression is very arresting and, as usual, the rest of the doll is exquisite.
Embroidery Pattern for Doll Face
Jacque has generously posted this fabulously fun pattern for free on Flickr (that was a lot of alliteration, there...) I don't embroider myself (or others), rather I don't do embroidery aside from a few details on my amigurumi, primarily because I don't think I can manage the small needles long-term without major hand pain and cramps, but that doesn't keep me from admiring other amazing work.
If you use the pattern, be sure to credit Jacque and share a photo of it so we can all see your creation!

BeBe Babies and Friends
I find these tiny sleeping babies incredibly adorable - the sweetly blushing faces and the adorable little blankies and hats are what do it, I think.
More dolls are featured in the Flickr stream for BeBe and Friends and available for sale on Etsy.

Nitocris - Enchanted Doll by Marina Bychkova
Nitocris - Enchanted Doll by Marina Bychkova
This particular doll has an Egyptian theme, so of course I like it, but Ms. Bychkova's work is so breathtakingly beautiful and detailed that I encourage everyone to spend some time browsing her gallery.
vleermuis
I find this doll fascinating.... The snarky bit of me wants to say that it's a high-class version of Bat Boy from the Weekly World News. The rest of me just wants to stare at it...
