Bad news I'm afraid. Brentwood centre gave me the number for Aztec crafts who organise the stallholders, but they cant locate her details with the minimal info that I have

Looks like I'm destined not to know how to make these beautiful angels.
Angel lady, where are you?!!
Hmmm, maybe if I post a finders fee, I may get some info:rotfl:0 -

Sam, your doll is gorgeous. I love her!
Just a quick check in to see what everyone is up to. I got very excited on behalf of you lovely people - I'm catching up on Outnumbered on Iplayer and in series 3, episode 2, it would appear that Karen has a sock monkey on her bed! :j0 -

They were really simple to do and I was asked for a tutorial so I have just posted one on my blog if you are interested:
