Summer and Rain are preparing for a journey that they both wish will keep them together. You see they are twins born 1893 in the middle of August during a hot steaming rainy night. During the time of their birth their mother and father Effie Mae and Jim Hill worried about whether or not if the two would be taken and separated from not only them but the sisters as well. The multiple birth was hidden from the plantation owner for he only knew of the one twin Rain. She was the first to be born Summer came minutes later. As they became older it became a game the family would play when ever strangers would come around not letting anyone see the two together at the same time.
The two girls often would laugh at how well they played the family game. Now that they are at the age of 10 it is time the family secret will have to be disclosed, mother has taken ill and father has left to work the land elsewhere left now with a sick mother and grandmother who now knows they need to be cared for by someone else. Mammy had two outfits made to make sure they both looked their best and prays that a new family will accept both girls. They sit now waiting for hair ties and Mammy to finish packing the surprise items she wants them to take along.
Whew okay call me crazy but for some reason I gave it a try to do two dolls at once. I have been working on these every since our no peeking week and still have a few more touches to do to them before they are complete. They will be up for sale as a set or individual. I am offering them as a set for 150.00 and sold separate for 85.00 if you are interested in Summer or Rain contact me by email. The price includes shipping and insurance here in the states. I will have to calculate travel fees for them elsewhere.
Peace and Blessings
Cheryl....Snatch JOY~!
