Ruth and Eve

I have two new dolls.  My friend Julia at JustJulia.com designs and creates these dolls.  I think they are wonderful, so I purchased one, actually traded for one.  I named this doll Ruth, like the Ruth from the bible.  But this Ruth is a bit jazzier; she wears silk and hand dyed cheesecloth is her head covering and shawl.  She also has some fancy jewels hanging from her arm.

Julia also gave me another doll, one I believe she said was a prototype doll, one made out of a paint rag.  This doll I call Eve.  She’s wearing hardly any clothing, but she does have a big leaf printed on her chest, much like the original Eve might have worn.   She has a big smile on her face too.
