You will be seeing either fabric or trim from your stash, as more and more dolls are made. It is such a joy to have this available to me so the dolls come out as nice as they do. I couldn't do it without the help that has stepped forward to encourage me to continue.

Because of you and others like you, I only have the labor part of the dolls, and it makes a big difference.

Hugs to you and yours and that sweet DGD.

Am anxiously awaiting pictures of the next one.
I sure enjoy your comments on my dolls for these children. I hope to have the darker skinned doll done tonight so may post a picture then or in the morning tomorrow.

Thanks so much for your help. Hugs

Your friend,

OKAY DOKIE...The second doll and one with darker skin is done. I hope you like it.

As I said before, and according to the lady who distributes the dolls, it doesn't matter on skin color to the children, but I will try to change around skin colors as much as I can to please those to whom it does.

Again, I hope you enjoy the doll. They are as different as night and day and I like each one having its own personality. I wonder what its owner will name it? (Smiling)

The important issue here is your health, and that of your sweetheart. My goodness, but I am sorry to hear that. It is far from good to feel bad like that. I am glad you are feeling better now. I hope you are enjoying seeing the dolls' come to life' for these children.

Thanks so much for letting me know, and most of all for being so willing to help. I appreciate any thing you are able to do to help me, help the little ones with cancer. It is wonderful that with the help you and others have offered, it is labor only and not needing to buy the fabric, etc, these recent days. It is so great to just need to put the dolls together, and get these dolls to the ACS or directly to a child in need, when I find out about one.

With all the wonderful things I have to choose from, I have the opportunity, because of folks like you, to brighten up a childs life, that needs all the good that can be poured into it. Thanks so much. I will look forward to the package when it arrives.

Another doll has come to live. It is almost midnight here in California, so sometime tomorrow morning, will ask Hubby to take a picture of her. Her skirt is white with green Polka dots. I hope you guys will enjoy her. Her nightgown is more colorful then some I make.

Mostly I hope a little girl will love her
