My journey continues using the molds taken from original Izannah Walker Dolls

I am fortunate to have acquired the molds, of three different antique Izannah Walker dolls, from the very talented artist Kathy Patterson of  "Babes From The Woods".  Although Kathy will no longer be reproducing the Izannah dolls, she will continue to make her amazing  reproduction English Queen Anne wooden dolls and offer them for sale.  www.babesfromthewoods.com

For the past couple of years I have been making and successfully selling my Izannah Walker inspired dolls. They have found homes with collectors around the world.

 I am delighted that I now have the opportunity to create and pass on to the collector exact copies, capturing every detail of the old but still charming dolls.  These reproductions show every detail of the original antiques, including the scuffs, the general wear and tear of the originals and even the finest detail such as the texture of the stockinette fabric.

Please visit my site often, as I will be showcasing  and offering for sale, my latest reproduction Izannah Walker girls.

Milly is 16" tall. She comes wearing her chemise, petticoat, underwear, dress and a stunning bonnet with ribbon trim. All of her clothing is made from antique cotton fabrics. I just love this blue 19th century material that I used for her dress. It suits her so well.

More pictures of Milly.
