Well, today is the day I get a lot of work done on those 60 dolls! I hope.
I had to take just a little time off and work on a little bitty project. I really like Flora's bead head dolls at her bonehead studio blogspot ( http://boneheadstudio.blogspot.com/ ). So I had to try to make myself one. Here is how it turned out.



I think it turned out really cute. I did not take the time that I should have so the next one should be a little more to my liking.


I might try some larger beads to make heads from. One of my internet doll groups are making faces on large covered buttons. I have not finished that one yet, but it is a fun way to do faces and not have to make the entire body.




Yesterday I went to my new cloth doll making club. It was the second time we met and there were only two of us. But we had a blast. And I have to post Heera Prabhu's dolls on my blog so everyone can see what a great job she does.


What do you think of her Eleanor Peace Bailey Doll the Celtic Princess? She also brought in one of my favorites that she made, the kids playing leapfrog.

How cool are they!?
We had a great time of sharing about doll joints and talking about what we will do as a club in the future.
