Hello!

My name is Shawn and I'm the doll maker, doll clothing seamstress and knitting mama behind Rosemary Garden Dolls. I learned to make doll clothes on my mother's sewing machine when I was 7 years old and I've been sewing ever since, for myself, my home and my family. My grandmother taught me how to knit and then to crochet as a young girl, adding to my handwork passions. To create my first Waldorf doll 18 years ago, I used these cherished skills from my beloved mother and grandmother and stitched a dear friend for my oldest son. I was captivated instantly with the process of Waldorf dollmaking and I feel fortunate every day to continue this journey with my trusty handwork basket.

I am so grateful for the friends that I've made along the way. The Waldorf doll world is a beautiful place filled with sweetness and love. I am honored to be a part of your doll families and your kindness inspires me.

Thank you so very much for stopping by to have a look at my shop and my sweeties! Have a lovely day!

Hugs,
Shawn
