One of my blog and quilting mentors creates these challenges that get us to think outside of the box. I learn so much from these challenges and am always excited when she starts another. This one: http://saycheesebumblebeans.blogspot...come-play.html scared me to death. A portrait of ourselves. Noooooo! I don't think so. I am no beauty and I photograph even worse. My photos all look like strangers to me. I know a lot of you can relate.

But, I bit the bullet. This is an exercise in creativity after all. I need creativity. I live on creativity. So here's how I progressed! So I found a picture that wasn't half bad, enlarged it (scary), and started my project. Have a laugh...

My BFF from 2nd grade, hubby and me at her wedding.

Not funny. Cool! You'd make a good doll-maker. I challenge you to make a portrait doll. :0)
