Dolls, Handwork and Genealogy



Hi from Florida. I'd like to introduce myself and my wonderful Husband, Bob. We moved from Michigan to Florida in 1989 upon retiring. The warm climate is great. We are the parents of five, Grandparents of ten and Great-Grandparents of one, soon there will be three more Step Great-Grandchildren. We are one big, friendly, fun loving group.

My greatest passion is the designing and construction of Vintage doll clothing for Antique and Re-production dolls as well as making cloth and porcelain dolls. Another love is the great satisfaction experienced in restoring and repairing Cloth dolls. I have enjoyed this art of sewing and crafting since being taught by my mother from the tender age of 5.

Other crafts that I enjoy are knitting, crocheting, quilting and needlework.

My sister influenced me to become involved with Genealogy, when she began her long search into our Family History. Since she was researching our background CALLANAN/KLEEHAMMER/KELLEY/TERRY/FOLSKE and BRENNAN, I decided to work on my Husband's Ancesters, STANLEY/ROMINE/CLINE/McCOY. This has become an exciting and satisfying endevor.
