Be a Dreamer

Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world. John C. Maxwell

Lace Stocking and Black Leather Coat

I am working on a new doll using "Beyond's" pattern...will be posting a picture soon. Cute and sassy at the same time...Using Loralie Designs fabric "Wild Cat Woman",  for inspiration. Having this stash of fabric for over 2 years now...it finely let me know what it was meant to be...

Beyond Meets the World

Beyond's Day

"Beyond" was inspired by Sherry Goshon and Jean Bernard who encouraged me to step outside the box. Her name is made up of letters from these great artist names. This design is truly different than anything I have ever done. Her face and costume are not plan yet...she hasn't told me what is on her mind. I think Beyond is enjoying her new womanly body....without confinements. I would enjoy your thoughts on my new design.

New Pattern Coming

I am so excited. I have been working on a new doll pattern for 2 weeks. It will be the first one I have done with breast and "callipygian." 
The word "callipygian" is sometimes used to describe someone with notably attractive buttocks. The term comes from the Greek kallipygos, (first used for the Venus Kallipygos) which literally means "beautiful buttocks"; the prefix is also a root of "calligraphy" (beautiful writing) and "calliope" (beautiful voice); callimammapygian means having both beautiful breasts and buttocks.
So, I am stretching and growing in my doll designs. I will post pictures soon.

CIFI 2010

Aquarius

I designed and drafted the doll pattern and costume for Aquarius. She was entered in the CIFI (Creations In Fiber, Inc) Doll Challegne 2010. The doll recieved a 1st place ribbon in the Original, Cloth Intermediate Class. I learned so much by entering her...the judges were kind and honest. Missed a perfect score by one point. Not being to afraid, asked why and recieved an honest and constructive reply. Now a better designer and doll maker, because listening and learning makes us that way.
