Meet Anna. She came to visit me about a week ago, for a little photo shoot.
Anna lives in a hospital in the city- she's a big helper in the sibling classes, helping the kiddos get ready for their mom to have a baby.
Anna needs to clone herself, so she can ALSO be at the hospital clinic in our little town. My friend teaches these sibling classes, and offered me the chance to make a Mama doll for them. Since dolls are something I love to make, I have some extra help around the house right now, and the holidays are always a great time to take in a little extra cash job here and there...sure! Everything will be pretty straight-forward- she's a four-foot rag doll, with pretty yarn hair and a pretty little face. I get total license as to how she's made and what she looks like, since she'll never be in the same building as Anna! Under the gown, she has a little rag doll body, but there's an upside down pocket on her tummy to tuck a little baby in. Think kangaroo pouch, but facing down.
We went to the store tonight to get supplies- I have tracings from Anna, and everything I need to get started!

I can't wait to see your completed doll!
So I wrote this looooong comment and it got lost somehow... so I'm just going to say that I've been reading your blog using an andriod tool, and it gives me a hard time commenting. (nothing to do with your blog)But I love reading your posts!
