My Downs Syndrome Reborn

This has been like my dream reborn to create. I have wanted to do a Down Syndrome kit since I started reborning. It was a toss up between Pebbles and Vincent - I went with Pebbles. She is adorable. 
I didn't know what kind of reactions I would get but once I posted her to my Facebook page (both personal and reborn) there has been nothing but positive. In fact, I believe I have had more comments with this one than any other so far. That makes me very happy I chose to make her.

I would really like to do another with blonde curls and I hope to someday,  just another reason to get my rooting skills down this summer. I think she still looks pretty cute with painted hair. As you can see she makes a sweet looking girl or boy.

All in one place

These are all the Reborn Baby Dolls I have made so far. The names under them are the names of the sculpt, not the names of the babies. When adopted, they go home with a blanket, several outfits, socks, magnetic paci, hair accessories for girls and a few surprises. Any doll can be made into boy or girl, they are not anatomically correct babies, they have doe suede bodies that are filled with fine glass beads and polyfil. The limbs are also filled with glass beads and polyfil and capped off before attaching to the body. I use Genesis paints and paint in layers and then the babies are baked numerous times to cure the paint. They have a magnet inside the head for a paci and I can put on in the top of the head for a magnetic barrette. Sleeping babies have rooted eyelashes and awake babies have eyelashes glued in. At this time I am only making/selling bald babies, at least until I perfect my rooting for hair. I am working on it!

Most of the clothing is brand new and some are gently worn - clean and in excellent condition. All babies will have at least one new outfit. I am very generous with the extras and like to wrap them individually so the box opening is a fun experience. Crochet baby blankets are handmade by me and my mother. 

I absolutely love watching them come to life.

I will be adding to this blog post as I go...

Blog Name Change

Oops...I did it again. I went and changed my blog name. 
I have been It's Me Again, Pamela for a long time - but it was time for a change. 

So - how did I come up with Pittypat's Reborn Nursery?

Pittypat Hamilton has been a favorite character name from one of my all time favorite movies for over 25 years. Gone With The Wind. Aunt Pittypat was Scarlett O'Hara's aunt by marriage and Melanie's aunt, as well. She was a roly poly woman with white ringlet curls. Always about to faint and needing her smelling salts. lol Anyway, the name has always been special to me. 
When I first got into computer games, virtual places, chat rooms, etc. Pittypat was always my username. So naturally when I was looking for a name for my Reborn Nursery - Pittypat just sounded perfect.

Pittypat's Reborn Nursery Workshop

I have my reborning nursery workshop set up now. I feel so much better!

 Before I had every thing spread out all over the dining room. It was a mess. I am nothing if I am not organized so it was really driving me crazy. I had been looking for a small table that I could put in the spare bedroom/computer room/sewing room and just haven't had any luck. This morning it came to me that I don't really sew that much - and if I put my machine away - it would not be a big deal to pull it out of the closet - so that is what I did. 
I have a chest of drawers that pretty much matches the machine cabinet/desk and it was also empty. I let my granddaughters use the drawers while they were here and hadn't had time to fill them back up with my sewing stuff. I packed all that away, too. After umpteen trips up and down the stairs - every thing is now in its place. The lighting is great - and if I need it as a guest room nothing will even have to change. Perfect!
