Lisa dreams of learning to sew and becoming a fashion designer..... 
...so I put together a basket full of sewing supplies for her. I found a tiny pair of shears in a sewing kit at the dollar store, wrapped embroidery floss around some tiny wooden spools I discovered tucked into the back of my props drawer, and then I made a miniature pincushion.

Nothing like a sewing kit for someone interested in learning to sew! I was given my first sewing kit (which came in a lovely painted wooden box - when I was around seven. It was a gift from the dentist for being so good when he had to pull a tooth. I'm not sure how to express this in the manner for which it deserves - but when I look at all the photos in your gallery, I don't see dolls, I see living beings. it would be very difficult to put into words how deeply beautiful they are, how lifelike... no, even better than what we see in the "real" world. The costumes are superb. The background scenery is gorgeous. Thank you for the magic you share with anyone who stumbles upon your website. I feel really lucky to have found this.

Thank you so much for your comments! It means a lot to me, since I'm always working towards making the pictures look as realistic as possible, and considering the dolls are just 10" or 12" tall, it can sometimes be quite the challenge making everything look in scale.
