I am really trying to work hard on my sewing. I love making these dolls!! I'm not as good as I could be if I were a little more patient and tried to slow down. Once I start, I don't take my time because I'm so anxious to finish. I'm like that in a lot of ways. Oh well. I am going to try and tackle making a purse in the next few weeks...if I can find the time. If I can get that down, I think I'll start buying patterns and making Ivy dresses.
