Mimi Kirchner is a doll maker, her dolls have the most exquisite features and beautifully made clothing. Whimsical and poetic. this doll is Ione, Mimi says of her “I am happy with her. Especially…
-her hair
-to have made something new out of a very damaged, moth-eaten coat
-making a doll without a happy face
-and her hat” oh yes her coat is gorgeous, her hair tells such stories, and her expression is so sad and thoughtful.
Her woollen dolls, are not so much realistic or have such fine detail, but what they do have is personality and humour, they include these gorgeous fat fairys, big men and grey haired grannies.

Oh, so sad – her face – and so many stories and woe. Lovely to look at and wonder where she will go. She is beautiful. Thanks for sharing your wonderful art.
