My father told me that his grandmother, Minnie, used to
make quilts. They were not art, he assured me, just made up of
snippets of old clothes , so as not to waste fabric and used to keep
warm. He remembers one, he says, all in grays and blacks and plaids.
Not art, he says, not meant to be beautiful.
Sounds like beauty to me. Maybe even art...

doll
She is ready to travel. Dolls are interesting to make. When I make them I think about how intricate we are and how much more complex we are than dolls, and wonder at how we are made at all. I hope the little girl finds her friendly.
Very cute!! Bet you're glad to cross off one more WIP from the list! She is adorable!!!
