WELCOME!
 

Welcome to Dawn’s Dilly Dolls  -  a cloth doll & fabric art characters web site with a difference!

Like no other cloth doll site, Dawn’s Dilly Dolls offers SERVICES & SKILLS to this “cottage” industry in Australia and New Zealand & to the folk reading my site.  If you think that I can be of assistance, then, please get in touch!

As well as services and skills, Dawn’s Dilly Dolls site is dotted with some of those things which ‘lovers of the Art” like to explore  -  photos, stories, favourite cloth & mixed media doll designers, Teacher Links & Suppliers – mixed in with My Favourite information sites in Australia, New Zealand, United States of America & Canada.          

There is the facility for purchasing The Australasian Cloth Doll Clubs & Tutors Directory  -  a travel companion book, planning resource and easy reference guide to the Who’s Who of the Australian and New Zealand fabric art doll industry. The Directory is a documented NETWORK of Clubs & Groups in all Australian States, making the ‘girlfriend’ visitor at ease with warm welcomes & hospitality.  So, take advantage of this network when visiting our country & New Zealand.

Importantly, there is a section on this website about the Services & Skills that are available from Dawn’s Dilly Dolls.  Included in these are such things as:

  • Writing of Small Business Plans, accompanied by its Operational Plan

  • Developing Applications for Funding

  • Events Co-ordination and Events Organisation

  • A Central Register of cloth doll & fabric art characters information

  • Home Stay Program

  • Teacher Agency

  • Register for Master Artists wishing to teach at the Master’s Workshops at Maroochydore (MAM), held each year during August.

Looking through the Pages, you will find my Gallery of photos of some of the fabric art characters & figures that I have made over the years – The Best Of….  You may have seen some of these on other sites.

Now, with your cup of tea or mug of coffee or glass of water (if you prefer), sit back, relax and enjoy exploring the site with a difference – DAWN’S DILLY DOLLS.
