I wish I had the time to do the dolls, maybe next time.

I changed my mind!

Do you mean art dolls?

Hey Lob! Waving wildly. I guess you never know who you will come across here. I finished the doll I was working on for you-all in green peyote beading. I hope you like it. I plan to have my husband mail it on Monday.

I have a question...does this include paper dolls? This is a common question in doll swaps. I ask because I tend to make labor intensive dolls, and have been disappointed to get a paper doll in return. Thanks.

Hello Cerwinrhiannon! ~~waving back~~ So glad to see you here!!!

I would like to know about paper dolls too. I make porcelain dolls, time consuming, many firing steps to complete. I would also be disappointed to receive a paper doll. I saw the doll in the example picture and thought it would be fun to swap with other doll makers, paper dolls didn't cross my mind at the time. Are they included in this swap?

No - this isn't paper dolls.. it is cloth dolls of any kind. I am making yo yo clowns. But it can be rag dolls, cloth dolls of any kind, including art dolls like in the picture.

I make worry dolls. Is this okay, or do I need to remove myself from the swap?

starofsong 05/21/2007 #

if it is a cloth doll, then it is fine.. star of song

the original description said it would be made of clay, wood, or fabric. It never specifically said cloth, which is why I signed up. Worry dolls are made from wood and embroidery thread, and they are very small.

One doll is ready to go, the other one is almost done.

Well, I have kind of a dilemma here. Yesterday I was put on overtime at work, so am working 12 hour days. As I said, the first doll is done. The second one, which goes to Lilian, is almost done. I could send her today, with no hair, or wait a day or two (and be late) and send her with hair.

I'd rather send her with hair, but am deathly afraid of getting a bad rating for being late. That happened to me right after I joined. Someone gave me a 3, even though they liked what I sent, because it was a few days late. AND they even live overseas!!

Anyway, if no one posts about this by tonight, I will probably post her as being mailed either way, so as to not constantly get those "reminders" in the email.

If she is sent out late, it would be 2 days at the very most.

Never mind, I can get her done.
