 That is not all that Edy makes with his yarn scraps, he is remembered and loved for the fabulous dolls he made. The Team in South Africa were amazed to find that they are big dolls. Each one unique with a head full of hair, creative clothes, and all with beaming smiles ! There will be happy children in SA who receive one of these. Edy gave us a running photo commentary on how they were made. Here are some of the photos.

Check out the belly buttons !

 

Here are two of them safe in South Africa ready to be loved 

 

And two more......

Thank You Edy for your imagination and creativity for the children of South Africa !!!

Well done, Sue, for all your efforts in bringing the photos to all our KASfriends.....you deserve an 11 out of 10.  :))

Just thought I would add a pic of Edy's miniature dollies.....so cute......of course with my skills they could disappear, too....lol.

I LOVE your dollies!!  They are adorable and so indeed ready to be loved.  What cute belly buttons they have too :-)

And such beautiful scrap hats.  So unique looking.  Well deserved Edy.

Thanks Bev the minis are so cute too ! I overlooked them.

Linda I had a go at copying from yours not sure if that worked!

I love your maxi and mini dolls very much. But your hats are simply amazing!!!

Congratulations, Edy!!!!  A well-deserved award, for sure!!! 

Thank you for your contributions of warmth, color, and fun.  I can just imagine the hugs your dolls must get when placed in the arms of a child! xo

Congratulation Edy on your SHA..........I love your scrappy hats, so unique but your dolls are something else!! They are FABULOUS...........I loved reading your blog and waited patiently for every instalment....I was amazed when I saw SOME your dolls arrive in SA, they are huge.
