The Doll

Hello Everyone!! I hope you are having a great day. I do not know if I have mentioned that I love making dolls and used to have a blog about them. Any who, so I am making one right now, I need a model for the baby stuffs. I'm making for my Etsy store, since I do not have access to baby I thought a doll would works. I'm working on making it as realistic as possible. I am making it from a stretch cotton blend in the front and upholstery grade muslin fabric in the back then covered in artist medium, a technique I read about on the doll artist Rivkah Mizrah's blog it allows me to paint it and extents the life of the piece. I love her blog I have learned so my different things that help me to perfect my doll craft. I will post pictures when I'm done. I have not yet decided if it is a girl or a boy. More than likely I will let Miss A decide, she is a very curious child who never and I mean never stops talking and asking questions. This is great in the middle of the day and morning but not when I am tired. Usually I do not discourage her as it, in my opinion, helps her form her world views and I try to actually pay attention and not let it be background noise. I hate to admit this but I find her fascinating, the way her mind works! I hope my future children are half as interesting either way I would consider myself lucky!
