Tucked beneath the wispy bits of pattern and wound wool is my makeshift grading book. I promised myself I could do two things once my grades were turned in: I could read a thick escape book (Outlander) and I could finally, finally start my first doll.
I'm not sure how long it takes before I will feel comfortable enough to make these dolls for people I do not know--when they will stop being gifts and will start being a part of my humble handmade business. I have a list of people I'd like to make dolls for, and have begun sketching out ideas for motifs, but I'm trying to restrict myself as little as possible while I figure out what my place is in this fascinating world of toymaking.
