    If you ever need more fabric. pm me. I would be glad to donate. My grandsons has spent many hours at the local childrens hospitals and cleveland clinic. They don't have cancer but it is scarry for any child to go to the hospital and they start sticking them.

    GOOD WORK!!! I know ;you didn't show us this for praises but we root you on.
    Thanks so much. The thing I am shortest on all the time is skin tone fabric, but any and all donations are beyond welcome, if you have something to spare. I will be happy to pm you with my address if you wish to have it and i will check out the rag doll thing. THat might be ideal for the very small children with cancer. Thanks so much for the kindness of your heart and your taking time to write me. Hugs to you and yours. I love Beverly Lewis books and also Debbie Macomber books...also Janette Oaks. I will be 70 next Sunday. WHEW...where does the time go???

    Thanks again.

    Vickey, on the inside of your chemo caps do you use flannel fabric?
    I'd also like your addy so that I can send some fabric to you! You're ONE special woman to be making these dolls for the cancer children!!

    No...I use either qulting fabric or regular cotton on each side. I am afraid the flannel might get too warm.

    I used to knit Chemo caps, but did that in the winter time. I sent my addy to you in a PM. Thanks for whatever you can do.

    Those are a one of a kind special doll. It is so kind of you to do this for the young ones. I cann't imagine being that young and facing cancer. I'm sure you add a lot of joy to their lives. Do you go and hand the dolls personally so they can see who has made these dolls for them?

    God bless you for the wonderful thing you are doing for those children. And believe me your Mother is there with you. If you will PM me with your address, I will send you some fabric for the clothes.

    Thanks for the Birthday greeting. Just finished stuffing up two dolls. Now to sew them closed and put on the faces in the morning, then MAYBE tomorrow, I'll make a dress for one of the dolls and Wednesday or Thursday I'll make another. Actually I have to make two dresses for each doll then join the skirts together with a whip stitch or something. Then I'll take a brief break from sewing for a few days. I have to get some skin tone fabric somewhere before I do more dolls. Thanks for your words.
