Wow - I let another month go by without a post! I've thought about posts and have written them in my head but that's kind of hard for anyone else to see :) So here's a fun one .. I'm designing a doll for a class that Judy Skeel and I are going to teach together. It's going to be a Steampunk Stump doll. This is just the body part. Kind of fun to see how it evolves - from right to left. I think I have one more evolution and then she'll be done.
I haven't done the bottom half or the 'stump' yet. Figured that was a waste of material while I worked on the main body.
HAHAHAHAHA! Jude, you MUST be reading my mind (and THAT should SCARE you!) because I have checked your blog each morning, and was JUST about to write and ask you if you were still working on postcards or if maybe you and Loren were knee deep in moose meat preparations or something! I was MISSING you! LOVE the cool beginnings to the stump dolls! You & Judy Skeel! Now THERE'S an awesome team! Can't wait to see the results! LOVE YOU!

Posted by: shashi at March 18, 2011 3:59 PMShe is coming along! I think about designing again from time to time, just can't seem to get my head into it. Sounds like a fun project. I bought a container of steampunk type gadgets about a year ago and haven't even opened the container yet.
Posted by: Kerry Seymour at March 19, 2011 4:25 AMIsn't it addictive to make a cloth doll body morph into the shape you want it to be? Really nice. Can't wait to see what you two come up with!
Posted by: Sue McFadden at March 27, 2011 12:50 PMWell I'm back on line. i took the hermit crab class at your site and off I've gone....As alwasy I've enjoyed seeing your work.
Posted by: Maryellen at March 30, 2011 5:29 PMOkay.... listen....numbers 4 and 5 on the right?? they just don't cut it Judi ... tits pointing E and W just make me laugh out loud. Sorry if I offend any woman who actually has them, but I understand anything can be fixed and some of it for free. Although, I've seen lots of naked ones in locker rooms...and so far none like that. Number 5..poor girl.......needs a better fitting bra. Squashed. Oprah and her bra fitting ladies would be poking and prodding those babies......er boobies.....
