BLACK FRIDAY SALE 2020

Posted on by

BLACK FRIDAY SALE 2020

Every pattern, video workshop, and storyboard workshop is on sale from 11/10/2020 until 12/31/2020. Prices are 20% off with free shipping on most items.

All of our fabric will be removed from the store on 1/1/2021 and will no longer be offered. If you want it, now is the time. (The postage is just too high to allow us to continue to offer fabric.) If you order multiple pieces of the same fabric, we will try to send you a single piece. For example, if you order 4 fat quarters, we will send you a full yard not cut into quarters.

We will also be adding more direct downloads for some of the video workshops. They may be a few days to get into the store. This will simplify international shipping by making our videos available directly. It may take a few days because we must convert the videos from DVD format to MP4 format to make them smaller and faster to download. Watch for the announcement.

Thank you.
Happy Dolling

Mimidolls Christmas Sale – 20% off, free shipping on orders of $35.

Posted on by

I’ve finally got the ETSY store straightened out. We added a lot of ultrasuede and other fabrics in time for Black Friday, but people complained that they didn’t need 2 yards (or 10 yards) of ultrasuede for doll clothes, so I’ve rearranged everything for fat quarters. There’s ultrasuede, wool, jersey knit, and Uki Atai fabric from Japan.

Anyway, the sale runs until the end of the year, and EVERYTHING is at least 20% off the original prices. Some of the fabric was already 50% off of retail on Amazon, and you can get most of it in fat quarters. There’s also free shipping to USA on orders of $35 or more.

Stop by and visit!

In a few days, I will also be adding some of the dolls from Mimi’s collection including many by NIADA artists and ODACA artists.

Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving.

Season’s Greetings!

Happy Dolling!

Surface Design and Wearable Art

Posted on by

We’re moving from a 5 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom apartment. We can’t take everything. Lots of Mimi’s books are for sale in the Studio Sale announced last week.

Since last week, we’ve added over 80 more books to the studio sale. Some excellent books on Native American culture, and particularly Hopi Kachina dolls are in the Inspiration subcategory. Most of the others are in one of two new subcategories: Surface Design and Wearable Art.

Surface design includes painting, piecing, dyeing, batik, tie-dye, texturizing and other methods used to alter the appearance of fabric or textiles.

Wearable art includes not only the doll jackets designed by elinor peace bailey and Virginia Robertson, but also quilted, pieced, painted, and other clothing and accessories. Some is very elegant, some will be perfect for your own expression.

There are also new books in the Art Books subcategory. These include everything from flower painting to animal anatomy.

Most prices are less than 50% of what these books cost elsewhere. We only have one (or sometimes two) of each book, so get what you want before it’s gone. After you’ve finished shopping, be sure and tell your friends who might like to get in on the savings.
