Lynne S. Lee-Dinky Baby Distributor

I have worked in customer service and administrative fields for over 30 years and while I have loved doing this type work, I have always had a yearning to make dolls. During the early 90’s I made and sold dolls after I was laid off and this was such fun and I truly enjoyed it. With 3 boys at the time and a need for more income I gave up that venture and went back to doing admin work. In the past few years as the Web has become more popular and accessible I have become obsessed with dolls again and when I first saw a DinkyBaby on another site I was hooked. I can’t look at any one of them without smiling and I have one on a chest at the foot of my bed and he makes my happy every time I see his little bald head. I have a web site that I have been working on for quite some time and I sell patterns for DinkyBabies and hope to become certified soon. I love all things Baby!!! Now I have 4 boys and they are almost all grown up and the Babies are something I do for me and I truly enjoy them!

I have used the fleece and floss from the kit, some doll body and fur fabrics. I had very fun doing it. I like to win this competition so I can be an inspiration to other what the can do with a pattern, some cloth, fantasy and a happy mood. Lena Thiel-Sweden

Not having money to spend, I used gingham and the kit’s fleece to appliqué musical notes and hearts on the basket. Because the baskets are to house the Mel-O-Dee Babies, I feel these decorations reflect the spirit of the dolls. That’s why I feel you should vote for my basket. Victoria Graves-CA

This basket was made with coffee and cinnamon stained fleece, handstitching “my button baby” on the front, and trimming with a piece of old lace from Granny’s sewing stash. A Button Baby face and matching lace collar is attached to the front. I thought this primitive style basket would look neat holding a Button Baby wearing an old fashioned Betsy-Ross style bonnet and antiqued off-white minky chenille (I’m still working on that baby).

I used the white fleece from the kit for the basket. I chose the bunny that was with the kit I added pink ribbon for the eye and white fleece for the tail and I used the yellow on the ear of the bunny. I tied the flap on the basket with pink ribbon. I am a mother of four that loves to craft. by Chrissy Lowry -IN

My basket is trimmed in lace and pink bows all around. The cute babies have embroidered faces adorned with coordinating floss bows and pastel flowers. They represent the precious children in my life and I love them all dearly! by Jackie Corace-PA

I used woolfabric, then cut out flowers and used gold thread and seedbeads to stich on the flowers. I used some knots on the knitting yarn and another yarn as leaves.
The bag was punched together without any thread.That worked very well.
I made a cord first as the bow, I punched a bow of the white fabric with some tread inside that allowed me to wrinkel it . by FRØYDIS HAUGE-Norway
