Back to work

Back to work today, almost a relief!  Shirl and I make some complicated dolls, sometimes using fiddly fabrics  - silks, organzas, but a simple little doll yesterday and we were hopeless.  Oops need to cut another leg, oh, look, I've cut an extra arm! Ooooh missed at a but there - bit of hand stitching will fix it. Yep hopeless!
Then then whole catastpophe.  The clothes.
You see we have been talking about doing a japanese doll for absolutely ages.  So lets create some japanese clothes and our other little dolls can have a japanese visitor!  Choose the fabrics mmmm lots of ummming and arrring there, then cut all the panels and strips. 
At times the whole project just had us it stitches - excuse the pun.  But thats what stitchin on sunday is all about.  De stress at the end of the week, or is it start the week with a great day, never could quite work it out.
