Dolly poppet babies

With every spare minute spent making my babies - human and cloth - i am not sure how i will manage blogging again, but i really want to participate in this wonderful event so. THUS MARKS THE DAY I RE-COMMIT TO SAID BLOG. Where to start? I guess i will post some dolls...

In the past my dolls have always been much more "art"; it is only recently i have started to make dolly's for kiddies. I will have to dig out some of my exhibition images. Oh how i miss those strange and wondrous days of strange and wonderful creatures and creations...

I'm sure SOMETHING will be flowering on the 21st; now i am in maintanence mode. And i have become obsessed with long range weather forecasts. I have no problem with rain but i hate hate HATE wind (fingers toes and everything in between crossed)...
