Welcome to My Red Cape. Long ago in another time my husband Jack and I lived in a little old red house. It was the stuff of dreams to us for the few years that we were there. I live there still a number of hours every day in imagination, with old dolls and paintings and fabrics and feather trees. I draw inspiration and happiness from the memories of that space in time and share some of it here with friends who remember how to step with Alice through the looking glass and take delight in whimsies and antiquities. ~Edyth O’Neill

Playing with toys at Christmas




Wishing a sweet Christmas to all who celebrate this.  Dolls and Toys are a big part of the season for me.  These big 28 inch cloth children, Izannah inspired, were made this year by Elaine McNally and me on a sculpt I made years ago about 1990. We have 15 of them, our E and E dolls.  It has been an amazing year for me to reach that far back in my journey as a doll maker.  Thank you Elaine.

I like having big old toys to pose with the dolls.










 Taken at night so color  is not good, this shows the bears bringing  the Christmas tree home on their sled.  Three more you do not see are on the other side, so that is most of my bear family.   Merry Christmas from bears and dolls and me, e.
