They are about $AUD20 a pair in materials and then there is international airmail postage.

I'm in Australia.

Happy to do them for you.
Oh and would you want pure new wool, cotton or acrylic. All are around the same cost for materials. Undecided go figure....bloody Oz equality I guess.
International post is
$AUD14.50 Airmail

$AUD20.10 Registered or tracked post.

Hrm... well I'd probably have to ask their mother. She is slightly weird about materials. She'll read an article about wool and get rid of all the wool in the house. I'll check and get back with you.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Just thought some people might be interested in Porcelain Dolls. These are my mother's efforts. She makes the wigs clothing and props. The dolls are purchased as green-ware and she paints them and fires them. Rather proud of her really.

This is "Merida"- Brave
She has won a "Highly commended" at our Royal Easter Show in Sydney

This one is one of her "Newborn" dolls, yes she did the embroidery on the dress

"Henry VIII" won a second prize at the Royal. Yes everything he is wearing she made

Holy fucking shit. Those dolls are the creepiest thing I have ever seen in my life. *shudder*

I think Esmarelda has already slain a whole primary school.

Wow. You really seem to have some problems with that statement.

Esmarelda from "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"? how do you get to a primary school from there?
I'll happily tell my mother that her dolls creeped you out.
