Susan Boyle posts/videos/interviews
May 30, 2009
Debbie Ritter from Fisher, Illinois is a dollmaker, mother of four and a Susan Boyle fan. She usually crafts historical figures but is now making a Susan Boyle doll. And after Ms Boyle's "tidying up" she made a second doll.
RITTER: I have watched her video on YouTube literally one thousand times. I love the fact she is so down to earth and there is nothing fake about her. When I first saw Susan on television I just fell in love with her and when I heard her voice I had stars in my eyes.
Her dolls are made out of wire, clothespins and clay and are dressed in homemade clothing – each one original and made completely by hand.
RITTER: It’s painstaking work and you need small fingers…each doll takes at least a couple of hours. It’s more of a hobby than a job for me but I sell them to collectors too.
What does she like best about Ms Boyle?
She’s a simple woman but I mean that in a very good way.
Ms Ritter’s dolls are available at www.uneekdolldesigns.etsy.com.
