AMAZING Handmade Fabric Dolls | Shelley Thornton Exhibit | Dollmaker Video 

I thought I had nearly zero interest in dolls, so this video was an eye opener for me. I was completely captivated as I watched Shelley talk about her love of fabric and of the creative source for her signature hair styles. I'm an artist with a pretty good command of color, but I don't think I know of any other artist (myself included) who can put together collages of color in such a wide range of hues and textures as Shelley Thornton. Fabulous work, presented in a delightful and informative video interview. Thank you, Rachel Hoffman. And a big congratulations to my old friend, Shelly Thornton!

Wow Wow Wow and what a lovely lady Shelley is too. 😍😘❤️

I am a quilter and aspiring doll artist. So amazed by your use of fabric. Thank You for sharing you are so inspiring!!

I like te way she has the border on the quilt to really look like a silver frame with the use of blue and gray fabrics. Absolutely beautiful!

The Moderator of this video mentioned that the paper doll might be mentioned but never was. I cant find a you tube video for a paper doll video from you. Did you do one?If so what is the video called. Thank you. I made fabric dolls in the 1990s. But as I grew older and older I have found certain sewing techniques things I cannot do so decided I would try paper dolls.Thank you

Someone needs to teach the filmmaker to NEVER touch pieces there are in the exhibition!! How rude!!!!

Shame there all white dolls !
