I collect dolls, have about 600+ made some porcelain ones and now investing in Antiques or reproduction. love to dress them when I have the time, been too busy making quilts. Trying to finish a Teddy Bear Picnic Applique quilt. I am having trouble with the bears, they are too puffy so a friend suggested to make them like trapunto. Will do the other pieces BEFORE I stipple quilt the blocks. I am 58 and do not think I am too old especially when the eldest active member of my quilt group is 96 and she is a real card too.
