Doll Making Days

"Doll making days are always my best
I never feel a need to rest.
The fabrics are pressed and sorted by color
Perhaps I'll choose this - no maybe another.
The dolls wait so patiently sitting in line
Silently wondering - is it my time?
To be taken away to the upstairs workroom
And later come back in a brand new costume!"


Charity Note:
I'd like to suggest that if you spend time making doll clothes, anyway, that you collect a few dolls from friends and neighbors and sew a wardrobe or a complete outfit for each doll. Then donate the doll in the completed outfit to a charity that distributes used dolls and toys to kids that otherwise would not have any. When I was a little girl, nothing brightened up my face more than my mother making me a new outfit for my doll.

Other sources to find used dolls to fix up and dress up are yard and garage sales. And lots of churches have annual rummage sales of used clothing and toys, including dolls. In fact, used clothing can be cut up to make a dress or pants and shirt for a doll.
