Birdie said… - Wow Melissa, thanks for the "lnky luv"! : ) That was really kind! I can't wait to start on more. First I get to make a raggedy for my elderly neighbor tho'. When she & her husband moved to the nursing home last year, she let me have two, old cigar boxes full of vintage buttons & garter hardware! I thought I'd make her a black raggedy (since she's black) & use some of her buttons on the dress. Should be fun!

- Thanks! I've gotten another fully complete, one Polynesian doll whose done except for some of her hair, a lei & a flower in her hair. I'd love to try one of yours. I wonder if it would work in her hair. I'm looking for your little instructional you said you made for the flowers, but I can't find it. I never have been very good at finding my way around *laugh* where did you put it?
