I'm running out of time ... I am supposed to teach this doll as an on-line class next month and I haven't even started to write the class. I have to make another one of these so I can take step-by-step photographs. I've managed to get out the pattern pieces and play around with them - moving the arms around like it's a paper doll - but that's it. I haven't touched a doll in a while. Think that means something?
By the way - this is the doll that Art Doll Quarterly kept for 9 months and never published. I wonder what they were doing with it? Keeping it in a dark closet to see if it would wither?
At least you got yours back.... Patti Culea sent them a doll and never saw it again.
I can't imagine why they wouldn't showcase your doll - I think it is highly original, great design, lots of attitude - what's their problem?? I've been kind of disappointed in the last couple of issues of Art Doll Quarterly. I think they need a website where people can go to see the runners-up of the challenges. Show the best of the Bendi's and put the rest on the website. AND I was really ticked off by the editorial of this last ADQ, and I'll bet that you were too!!

P.S. May I take your class? - Kathy
