Hi - I'm Charlie and we are in the middle of a big decision here.




Yvette is getting ready for a class with elinor peace bailey this weekend.







She is really excited as it will be her first doll class. And she has heard what a fun teacher elinor is!





( I heard somewhere she doesn't capitalize her name? - is that true? )




Anyway we are trying to decide with pattern to make. (I know she should have started it already but .... ????


I don't know why she has waited. Since she waited so long to start this doll we didn't have time to buy a pattern so she is picking one from a magazine.




Here are the two patterns that we are choosing from.



Wee Bit Revisited


which is in The Cloth Doll magazine - Fall 1998.

Here are the fabrics combinations that she has chosen to possible make that one.


Aren't those tassel delightful!!! I love them and the orange is so wild.

OH! There is a glare on the magazine photo. Maybe I should learn to use the camera - instead of just monkeying around with it..tee hee :o)

Or









The Keeper of Memories

which is in Cloth Dolls magazine - This magazine was a special edition magazine publish a while ago. It's an Australian magazine I don't think they made any more. Well at least we didn't find one :o)

Here are the fabric combination for that doll.

They are a little more elegant and they are so silky. The light one with flowers is very glittery!


I wonder which she will choose. I don't see any pink and black or red which are her favorite colors to use. I wish she would hurry up! She promised to finish me sometime in the future. I think I would like a button front shirt collar and a tie. I want to be a well dressed monkey! :o)

Where did May go? It seems to have rushed by. The kids will be out of school in a week!!!!! Now lets get in that studio and start sewing!!!
