I've finished this little doll yesterday. She's been given a name too! Gwen! There are a few small, fiddly things I want to do yet. Gwen won't be going into my shop. I don't think my heart could handle her languishing, unsold in my shop right now.

I am obsessed with making sure that all angles of my dolls look good. That they are "finished". It is killing me that there's a knot showing in the second picture looking up the doll dress. 30 years from now, I swear I will remember this flippin' knot.

A beginning of a proof of concept for some pieces that will be creating for Day of the Dead and Halloween this year.

I was wondering if I could actually cover the entire surface of the wool pompom with embroidery work. The answer is yes. And I can give her four heads as well!

Betsy and Polly are almost finished! I'm still trying to decide which Latin translation works the best for Polly. Betsy's little dagger took much longer than I anticipated. But it does look pretty cute. Thank you to all of the people who have been helping me with Polly's sign! It's my personal motto!

All four dolls now have their skirts and collars. I need to add some bows, and a few other things. I have their stands with cloches ready and waiting. They have been named too! Red: Emelie/ Blue: Molly/ Green: Maureen/ Yellow: Consuelo

These dolls are beginning to come together. I have four, smallish cloches, that I will be using in conjuction with this group of dolls. Each will be holding a protest sign.

Every time I finish one of these colour themed pompom dolls, I realize that I have to create another one to make my colour set more complete.

I'm testing some ideas out. This piece is basically a sketch. Adjustments are required for future pieces.

The reason they all have their little arms above their head is because it's easier to add the embroidery work to their bodies that way!

I made some additional pompom bead dolls. There's still some room in this cigar box. Perhaps I need to add a few more.

I finished the thank you note and sticker designs yesterday, so I started work on these largest of the pompom dolls I've been creating over the past month. The tiny ones and the larger ones need lots more work!

This piece is taking all kinds of twists and turns for me as to what it represents as an expression of my identity. I'm fine with that. It's how I work as an artist.
