But I do attend a fair put on by "DollExpo" at the end of November. I did see independent doll designers there...and some were quite interesting. I'm not sure what I did with the few cards that I took, so I don't think I can help you there. Nonetheless..here is the link to the site that sponsors the Paris doll fairs. They are situated outside of Paris and also have a boutique/museum. http://dollexpo.wordpress.comapril_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-76158013353490532812015-03-05T11:53:07.208-05:002015-03-05T11:53:07.208-05:00any other good dolls artists in paris that you kno...any other good dolls artists in paris that you know of?

But what I will do for you is to contact a friend who works for the Paris boutique (& is in contact with the designer from time to time) and ask if she could find out where Ms. Hong originally found her dolls. april_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-77703036446736651872015-03-04T12:35:22.244-05:002015-03-04T12:35:22.244-05:00hello

You can check the doll museum's itinerary on line to see what, other than the permanent exhibition of French dolls, is on display.

Tissue Reine, as well as Dreyfus (next door) are still going strong. The only difference between now and 4 decades ago is that you don't see the bourgeois women there with their dressmakers at their side! But there still are lots of gorgeous fabrics, galore!april_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-70462947844151388712014-12-16T13:33:53.904-05:002014-12-16T13:33:53.904-05:00Thank you Marta.

Instead of hoarding fabric, you simply take the Metro and buy whatever you need! The hardest part, however, was trying to decide what to buy!!! And yes, there is a new gorgeous FR guy. I knew Xavier would be overwhelmed by my girls, so I decided to give his friend, Loic a new home as well. He came already dressed in the original suit which is incredibly made. It affords me the opportunity to examine the details (pockets, belt loops, tie, belt) carefully so that I might carry this into my own work. I will need to make suits for my guys for all the holiday parties ahead!!

And a trip to the doll museum is another must because there are too few places of its kind in the world. It is so wonderful that Paris is so "doll friendly!"
