Marias Nature Toys (Bulgaria)
I was born, raised and educated in Lom , Bulgaria. From the age of six, my major focus was art. Drawing, painting, and constructing things occupied most of my childhood. I have always been interested in sewing, dollmaking, toys, puppets, and animation.

In 2005 , after the birth of my child, I became became interested in the art of dollmaking. It feels as if many of the different skills and interests I have developed over the years in relation to other artistic activities, have come together to serve me in this endeavor.

What doll are we making?
We will create a Intermediate baby fairy doll about 38 cm
The baby has fairy ears, it hair is made of mohair fabric.The doll is stuffed with wool.

Some of the techniques this class entails are: hand-stitching, embroidering doll eyes, sculpting with needle and thread, sculpting with felting needles, stuffing with wool (no rolling wool), so we cover a lot of doll making procedures which mostly I consider basic to intermediate in level of difficulty.
