Work in Progress

Just to show that I haven't been sitting around doing nothing - here's some evidence of hard work. I've been following along with Gail Wilson's Kate Greenaway on-line class. The dolls are done and are waiting for their clothing (to be made in the new year!). The hair line is a variation from the pattern - I started with Gail's guidelines, then modified it based on my impression of the artwork in a Kate Greenaway book I had borrowed from the library. These little dolls have been a lot of fun so far. I can wait to get them dressed and on display with my other Gail Wilson dolls.

Christmas Cactus

I have been busy working on a few dolls, but they aren't ready for pictures yet. In the meantime, I thought I'd share a picture of my Christmas cactus, which has been blooming, one blossom at a time, on my desk at work.
