PHOTO DUMP!

Wow... I come back from the holidays and my readership doubled! I got a whole 8 of you now... Lol! I love you guys! So anyways... as you know I'm supposed to be unpacking the apartment. Of course I started with my studio/office room, which just so happens to be where my dolls live... ahem. >:D

Here are some random photos, taken with my fancy new "retro camera" android app (no iphone here!)... all in the name of procrastination!

ENJOY!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS...

So the end of my relocation is near... I moved into my new apartment in New York last weekend! Of course I promptly had to leave said apartment to spend Christmas with my family in Michigan... but I'm hoping in another month I'll be unpacked and ready to get back into this doll modding business!! :)

And remember during this holiday shopping season to... just say NO to scalpers. :)

Ok I lied...

... so I do have something else to post before heading to NYC!

I started this pattern ages ago... finally took my messy scratchy pattern pieces and traced them into something people can print. I haven't had time to print it myself and make a dress from the pattern (to make sure nothing was lost in translation). So if you make this use scrap fabric for your first try... in case something needs to be adjusted.

My first go at the original drawing of pattern is below. You can see I added some ribbon details to the super basic pattern to make it a halter. So don't be shy... play around with it! :)

OH!! I found the new Toralei doll at Toys 'r Us yesterday! I couldn't believe it... I beat the Ebay scalpers!! Take that you jerks! :P
