I used to make jointed dolls for my daughter when she was small and give them as birthday gifts to her friends, too. Only her friends would look at the soft cotton dolls with hand sewn clothes and frown... until their mothers snatched the dolls from their hands and said "did you MAKE this? I love it!" and the birthday girl would go back to playing with her new Barbies or whatever. Now that hand made plushies are all the rage, they're loved by all ages. That's some positive progress for you. :) Lumpy, mutant, handmade toys are so wonderful when the kids are little.

I think that the misshapen ones will be loved the most - that's what I tell myself anyway. I made a funny looking turtle a little while ago for my son. My daughter wants one, my nephew wants one... I'm hoping that they'll get neater each time, but probably not. You can see it here (http://petalplum.blogspot.com/2008/07/red-turtle.html), if you're interested. I made it up as I went along, perhaps I should have planned it more! I can't wait to see your next one. I love this little turtle.

My boss's daughter is here with me at work and she keeps asking me "can you buy it?". I keep telling her, "no, it was a present for someone else", but now she keeps asking me "why? Why can't you buy it? It's so cute! Why can't you buy it?". Maybe I should get back to work before she gets me in trouble. Ha! :) Oh, I love it!
