tacking it up


I'm still messing around with these little apron tops.  I wanted to join the realm of dollmaking because I love the way it seems to connect to the puttering tendencies of mine, the futzing and adjusting.  My hands fumble a lot, and I look forward to when doing becomes smoother, though I think I'll always push myself to the verge of too hard.  Just hard enough.

 I'm working on grades for the composition courses I teach for a university and after that, I'm giving myself over to constructing my first doll.  My hands ache to roll wool, to try something just hard enough, but I have to behave, as one thing brings a paycheck and the other only has potential.
