Day 218: Finishing my felting project; A workshop on how I make and dress felted doll bodies.

[@diane64yorks]

Hello Jill, it's been lovely to see the process from start to finish for Mr Pence, he looks like a very efficient worker in his practical but smart clothes. Have a lovely rest of the week. Best Wishes from Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧 😊

Clothes makith the man. We have an alternative wet and hot late Spring and everything is absolutely blooming as well as the blooming weeds. But, I will turn my back on them and retire to the studio!

Can't believe how quickly Mr Pence has been created.He looks a very discreet gentleman to be working in the background of the household.Your filming is great and loved seeing this project be made from yarn and chenille sticks to a little character!Best wishes from Yorkshire dales England.

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Thank you Robin. I liked making him. Now his room will all come together.

[@evekankam6744]

He turned out beautifully,he looks amazing.

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Thank you. It sometimes amazes me as well when they suddenly develope their own little personalities.

[@karenbearden6198]

Mr. Pence looks as if he is anxious to get some work done. He is wearing some very smart clothes, quite appropriate and comfortable for his designated tasks. My but you got that knocked out quickly. You also did a fine job of filming. Roger may not want you to do his job so well. haha, kidding of course. Thanks for sharing some tricks of the trade, really enjoyed it.

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

I have to say, Karen, that I have learnt a lot about videoing over the last half a year. Never thought I would!

[@papabear2515]

Fabulous! He’s ready to move forward with Tudor life! 💙

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Yes, soon he will be wanting a desk!

[@debbralehrman5957]

Very Nicely done.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I didn't catch on until you showed the clothes and talked about the Ruff. Then it dawned on me oh the Tudor house. 👍🏼 I got it now. I was thinking about the Victorian house But you already have people for that.🤦🏼‍♀️Duh! Again thanks for the great Tutorial.😃

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Yes! Thank you! He will fit into the Tudor house marvellously.

Mr Pence looks absolutely handsome

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Perhaps for the day and times Susan, but I would call him austere.

[@jenpink4298]

Mr. Pence looks wonderful! My jaw dropped when you had him on the screen all dressed and ready for his shoes. He really is very well done and I am Astonished at how quickly it went!

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Now he has hair! And trim, and looks so much better.

[@jenpink4298]

@ I can’t wait to see him after his glow up 😂

[@irenehough4441]

Awwww Jill. Mr Pence has such personality and his outfit is wonderful and has history. Just like it would have been back then.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

I do enjoy researching clothing and recreating it rather than just downloading something from a mini magazine.

[@irenehough4441]

Well done.😊

[@jonihenry8124]

He turned out great!!! Have you ever had problems with their body wires breaking? Thank you so much for the tutorial!

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Not yet Joni. They hold up really well. Happy you enjoyed the tutorial too. Regards, Jill.

[@SharonNeil-qp3iw]

Hi Jill. He looks great. What method do you use to make the clothes. Do you hand stitch, machine sew or use glue? Thanks …

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Both! But this one was mainly handstitched and glued. Those fine nosed glue bottles are great for a job like this.
