Dorothy Henry of Hickory Grove Productions

Dorothy Henry, who specializes in miniature crocheting, will be selling her work at the Midwest Miniature Showcase.  Dorothy works in 1” scale but does do other scales.  She makes beautiful bed spreads, throws, table cloths, clothing and many other items.  The threads she uses are so soft – they lay perfectly.

Dorothy has been doing miniatures for 30+ years.  She has been very active in the National Association of Miniature Enthusiasts (NAME) organization and served as an Ohio State Rep in the A3 region.  She is also a member of the Junction Minis that meet at Entertrainment Junction in West Chester, Ohio.

The Midwest Miniature Showcase welcomes Dorothy and her talent.  Please stop and see her beautiful work; you won’t be able to resist her items.

Lockwood Tower

Midwest Miniature Showcase would like to introduce Lockwood Tower one of our new vendors this year. Lockwood Tower specializes in very high end artisan miniatures that are sourced from New-Old Store stock, wholesale shows, auctions, collector consignments, artisan consignments and IGMA Artisans from around the world.

To help find the Lockwood Tower table, simply look for the 18” chess piece which identifies her table. This rook is a nod to the Scottish castle Lockwood Tower for which the business is named. Kids are the future of miniatures, so the Lockwood Tower table always has a bag of “stuff” for the kids to peruse, narrow down and select one free item of their choice. Please take time to visit Lockwood Tower’s table and enjoy her beautiful and unique miniatures.
