We’ve been huddled indoors on some cold and rainy days lately, so we’ve been doing a little crafting. Here are some of our creations.

I made my first doll for madame tonight (this morning?!) It was a great deal of fun, and I put a lot of love into this dolly. I hope she lasts til Lucy has babies.
She was from a waldorf doll kit, so basically everything was done, I just had to sew her head to her body, stuff her a bit more, and close the arm seams. I have a new level of respect for dollmakers…even this little bit was a lot of work, and took me a few hours. I can’t imagine making her from scratch.
Here are some pics I took while I was putting her together…
and finally, she is finished!
getting dressed…
at the play table waiting to be discovered. Hope you love her sweetie!

Lucy and three of her dollies had a book club meeting. Topics for discussion included how heavy the book was, how easily the pages ripped, and how well the cover tasted.
p.s. These three elder dollies are a bit delicate, so they only come down off their shelf for gentle events like book clubs and tea parties.
