Shown below is a link to her tutorial on "Faerie Shoes :"
Here's what Rivkah had to say about her "Faerie Shoes" tutorial: These shoes are a snap to make, and are suitable for any doll- polymer clay or cloth. No pattern required- just imagination and a few basic supplies. You can even make these shoes for faerie feet with pointed "toes," as I did.
Please respect Rivkah's TERMS OF USE: Pattern is for Personal Use Only. Dolls made from this pattern may not be sold for commercial purposes. Pattern may not be copied, reprinted, emailed, or distributed in any manner without the permission of Rivkah Mizrahi.
Rivkah's Bio: Rivkah is a mixed media doll artist residing in Seattle, WA. Having lived in Israel for five years, she and her family relocated back to Seattle in the summer of 2007. A lighting designer by profession, Rivkah is certified by the American Lighting Association and works in the corporate location of a large online lighting retailer based in Kirkland, WA - sort of like an "amazon.com" for that industry.
She consults with homeowners, general contractors, architects, interior designers and business owners, providing detailed lighting plans and educating folks about the importance of good lighting, energy conservation, and-of course- artful design. While in Israel, Rivkah was unable to work in her field and so she had the great opportunity to develop her artistic skills and create a niche for herself in the dollmaking world.
Dolls are such a perfect medium, and great fun. It was a memorable five years indeed, a very significant time in her life for which she considers herself fortunate. Presently, Rivkah belongs to a Doll club in WA called "Dollerious," and looks excitedly forward to the meeting each month.
"Doll art is a very important part of my life. They represent who I am, because I put my deepest creativity into them - my feelings, emotions and my inner self. I spend so much time thinking about lighting and other people's creative needs - I guess dolls they are like my personal inner beacons of light."
Rivkah's dolls have been exhibited around Israel and in the US. She is a frequent publisher in Soft Dolls and Animals Magazine, and her dolls have made guest appearances in Art Doll Quarterly Magazine as well as books by Patti Medaris Culea and Li Hertzi. Rivkah's greatest source of encouragement is her husband Ariel, who greatly appreciates and encourages her and her artistry.
