    What did you stuff the pantyhose with to shape the heads?

    Your topsy, turvy doll is very cute.

    My Mom would never let me have one. She thought they were ugly. I can make my own now that that I'm the grown up. I'm also going to make a sock monkey. She wouldn't let me have one of them either. She thought the sock monkeys were ugly.

    :cry:
