Thank
you for visiting my web site. I live in Florence Alabama with my
partner Phillip of 24 years (that's me on the left in the photo).
I have been a cosmetologist for over twenty years and I own a small
salon with four of the most wonderful women in the world.
I have always been fascinated with dolls and I collected Barbie
for years before discovering Gene. However, there is a new love
in my life - the FASHION ROYALTY girls. I learned to sew while quite
young and I enjoy the challenge of creating clothes for these small
figures. Designing for these dolls has been a rewarding experience.
Gene, especially, is the epitome of beauty and glamour from the
silver screen era that I love so much and her figure is a doll designer's
dream. Barbie was a challenge with her bust to waist ratio. The
FASHION ROYALTY dolls are the perfect models with their buxom figures.
I hope you enjoy my designs as much as I have enjoyed creating them.
My designs are always new to me. They are never quite what I start
out with. Each new design comes into my head in one form then I
translate it into fabric (never on the first try). My sewing is
my relaxation. As soon as I sit down at my machine all my stress
seems to vanish. I make every piece as if it were going to stay
in my collection. If there is the smallest part of the design I
am not satisfied with it is discarded and I start over. I hope you
can see what I feel when a new ensemble is completed.
Again,
thank you for visiting my web site.
Michael
