Aprilart Dolls ® 495 Emery St. E. London,Ontario N6C2E9
My first attempt at doll making was when I was about 7 or 8 years old...she was a cowgirl made from a sock with tinfoil hoop earrings and a gold satin outfit with fringe skirt and vest, and cardboard brimmed hat. Don't forget the black nylons! Amazing that my mother saved her.
Thanks Mom!
Here is the Doll Dreamers' Guild (and friends) at the MDCC in New Orleans this past August.

The doll community wastruly shaken by the loss of one of the most gifted and notable doll artists of our time, Dianna Effner. May she rest in peace and may her family find comfort from their love and memories of her.
All of us are thankful for her legacy of beautiful sculpts and soulful dolls that have and will bring us joy for years to come.
