Hand stitched dolls

Stitch by stitch
Is how my little one-of-a-kind dolls come into this world. I sew them by hand, without a pattern and of scrabs of fabrics and yarn as well as worn out cloths.
No doll become the same, and that is all on purpose.

Each doll is full of whimsical charme and each make the most coziest little companion one can imagine. A perfect one-of-a-kind gift for yourself or a friend.

I sometimes also make custom made portrait dolls.
Contact me for more info if you are interested.

Heres a little winter image. I was sketching and doing some research on animal charachters when I came across the ‘Happy Pets Week drawing challenge’ and it’s prompt ‘Winter Walk’. Couldn’t resist joining (total procrastination…😙😙) I’ll probably just be joining this prompt as it’s theme was the one that spoke to me (and I must get on with reasearch - and dolls). I’m also a bit late with this one too - as there is already a new promt going on. But thats allright, I had fun with this illustration and it gave me some new thoughts. The drawing challenge is hoasted by: @galitskaya.illustration @merlegoll_illustration @marikadoddles @eider.duck.illustration @withloveandwatercolor @tintentupferl & supported by illustration_the_best

During Autumn 2022 this thick book came out featuring 89 Danish illustrators - each contributing with a full spread illustration to a passage from an Hans Christian Anderson story…. As so much took place in the fall I only shared a bit about the book in Stories… and I guess… better later than never… heres finally some more… Among the many great illustrations to dwell on in the book I illustrated ‘Årets historie’ (The Story Of The Year). I chose to illustrate this story because it was one of H.C.A’s stories that I did not already know and that appealed to me. The story features a group of Sparrows discussing the seasons of the year and the story starts right after New Years Eve - so that really fits the very present. The book reception took place in HCA’s house and museum in Odense in October but I was not able to attend. Otherwise, the project was arranged by @illustratorerne / Dansk Forfatterforening and is published by @forlageteudor #bogudgivelse #hcandersen #årstider #bogillustrator #bookillustrator #sparrow #gråspurv #bookstolove #kidlitart #bookproject #kinderbuchillustration #floralillustrations #picturebookillustrator #kingwinter #nordicbooks

As there is not much left of the old year I turn to thoughts and plans for 2023. Oh, there is so much I want to do, so many projects and ideas I hope to carry out not to mention a new studiospace to move into. But right now, right here I want to thank all of you who follow me on this sometimes crazy media. Thanks to you who purchased my work, collaborated, liked, commented, supported, asked and cheered or have become more or less online-penpals… both from my own country Denmark and from across the Globe - wauw! Everything means very much to me, - maybe more than you know💕 I wish you each a safe and peaceful step into the new year and hope that 2023 will bring peace, democracy, equality and unity in making our planet healthy again. Stay safe. Love & happy New Year to you all♥️✨ #thankful #newyear2022 #godtnytår #makermovement #kunstnerliv #bookillustrator #smallbusinessowner #børnebøger #plansforthenewyear #artistlifestyle #illustratorlife #visualartist #bogillustrator #taknemmelig #dollmaker #danish #artistsoninstagram

Little Karoline before she took of to Sweden. Karoline is also my latest handmade one-of-a-kind doll. I’m happy she quickly found a new home and it brings me much happyness that others appreciate the way I make my dolls. 💕💕🙏 #dolllgift #scandinatural #reusedfabrics #cuteitems #textileartist #softsculpture #handmadedolls #fiberart #handworks #sewingart #handmademovement #softdoll #dollmakersofinstagram #dollpics #handsewndoll #letterwritting #samler #nordicliving #scandiliving

❄️❄️To begin with the weather was all right, lovely snow… … then it started to get windy and suddenly we couldn’t see much ahead. Everything turned cold and stormy. The snowflakes were no longer tender cotton on our cheeks but were sharp as knifes as we struggled our way back home… (Part of a study). #winterillustration #nordicgnomes #winterstorm #paintonpaper #kidlit #childrensbookillustrator #visualartist #børnebøger #bogillustrator #nordictales#outinthecold #christmasstory #snowyday#illustratorartist #winterdays #awinterstale #juletid #kinderbuchillustration
