Oh my goodness, that is absolutely adorable! Now all it needs is a Alan Rickman Colonel Brandon to converse with and it'll be content! ;) But really, this is beyond awesome!

Awww this is so lovely! I envy those kind of skills. :D I'd never have the patience to get it done, much less get it done well ;P And this is so cute!

Jane Austen fanart!!! Oh, awesome. If ever there was a fandom that was perfect for hand-crafting, this is it. I love the pink edging; it's very Marianne, and the blue-green skirt keeps it from being over the top. And the lips are so sweet! Just lovely, all around.

Thank you! I agree. I like to think of her as a doll from that period. Thanks for noticing my color scheme, too. :D

This is SO CUTE. I'm not familiar with the character, sadly, but it doesn't stop me from loving this little doll. I especially like the little hood and her skirt. :D

Aww, thanks! I am glad that even people who don't know her love her. Yay!
