Dottie Gets Around

Looking over the dashboard this morning and saw that "Dottie" has swam over to see Sue McFaddon.
She met Sue during her quest trying to find out how to make a Lenci Type felt doll.  She practically jumped out of the water after taking Sue's Blueprint class and was able to create my very first felt doll "Little Jack Horner"
She has since been joined the Clothdolls Artistry and Sketchbook Challange.  It has been so exciting to be able to see all the beautiful art work everyone is so gracious to share.
Keep looking for beauty in everything you see

Girl in Blue Hat

Playing around with the computer camera.  This is my latest painting. Colors are off.

Dottie had brain freeze.

Dottie had the Geeksquard  help set up my computer. Yippee!
Painting is finished and will be working on my dolls.  In the meantime playing around with a drawing for a new watercolor.
Also, have an idea for Clothdolls challange  the Borrowers.  All and all everything is just Dandy.
Should be able to get some pictures up shortly.
I check my Dashboard daily and can't wait to see all the wonderful work everyone is doing.

Getting back to work

Hello: Been busy painting and getting my space organized and cleaned. Will have a few new painting to put up. Also working on Journaling it fun! Started knitting. My daughter Diane is not surprised as she says it what I do when the weather changes. Guess I have no secrets.
Sue McFadden is offering her Blueprint class on Cloth Doll Artistry www.clothdolls.ning.com .
It is an excellent class. Her directions are terrific. I followed them step by step and the result was my very first felt doll "Little Jack Horner" Try them! Keep creating.

Dottie has been busy, busy!

working on dolls at present!  One is from a pattern by Kezi just because it's so cute!  One of my own heads are  finished and needs stuffing and arms and legs.  She is destined to become a ballerina.
Just completed a paper clay head that is now ready for felt.  No too sure what it will become as yet!
