I have to say my preference would be for the more gothicy look too.....then again i tended to look like that for most of my life :rotfl::rotfl: but Charlotte is lovely too, and i think its a good idea to be able to vary the look of the dolls - lets face it not everyone gets the Bella look

Yeah i know what you mean, its hard to make things that aren't maybe your own taste lol - have you put them on ebay? It will be interesting to hear how much interest they get on there
might not be the best place for them but its really hard to predict!
Did i get some more sleep? ummmm no lol. Been quite busy today though so it will probably hit me about 8 ish.
Have found the perfect fabric to finish off my patchwork bag :j:j am really excited! I do need to try and find some pins though before i can get it done or go visit mum who has a lovely organised sewing boxand my sewing machine :rotfl:

Everyone has been busy busy busy! Time for my update. Got some more website work done and finished a gift bag. I also hemmed some trousers and nurse mummy made "Biggie Blue's" poorly leg better! Today an order of 16, yes 16, fat quarters from Cath Kidston. I was so excited about seeing that package I nearly fell over!
Will be getting to work on that lot tomorrow along with a family photo collage and frame for my sister.
I started a blog today too-get me! I feel like I've had a productive day for once!
Best go to sleep now! x0 -
