Birthday doll- a photo journal

Part 1-

Don’t you think it’s a shame that I have to cover a perfectly executed kitchener stitch with hair? I do.

Sewn and stuffed. There are a number of jokes I could make at this point, but they aren’t PC. (You know, “What do you call a doll with no arms and legs …..”) Right, moving on.

Hey, starting to look like a knitted representation of a human there.

Ah, hair. Yes, well…. Hmmm. It’s on, and that’s good. She needs a serious trip to the salon though. It’s bad.

Once again, I have ventured out on my own and designed an article of clothing for one of these dolls that doesn’t work at all. You know those clowns that walk around with suspenders holding a barrel around their mid section? You now have a pretty accurate picture of how this looks on her.

To be continued……

So there you have it! I still haven’t heard back from my mom about her duct tape mannequin. Maybe I’ll call her. We are taking the kids to the Seattle Center today. They are having some sort of bubble festival, and we’re gonna be there. Have a great day!

    Neato! It’s so interesting to see how they come together. You are the master at making these little dolls. Can’t wait to see what this one will end up wearing.
