a boy doll (finally)

I'm so happy I finally had an opportunity to make a little boy doll.  When I developed my doll pattern I wanted to make it work easily as either a boy or a girl but I had never actually made a boy before this guy.  I also adjusted the pattern a bit for this doll to make him a little smaller as he is to be the little brother of a doll I made a couple years ago.  And as you can see this boy is extra special because he has glasses!  I was somewhat doubtful that I'd be able to pull this part off but I'm glad the lovely customer I was working with asked me to do it because it was a fun challenge.  As a glasses wearer myself I know how nice it is to have a couple of pairs to choose from so this guy has orange specs too. 

Happy Birthday, C!  I hope you love your new little friend.
