All of a sudden, I understand why large, handmade dolls cost so much money. Holy crowly, do they ever take a LOT of time to make!
And yet, in the spirit of Christmas, and with 'visions-of-Sao-Mai' in our heads, my mother & I handmade a (giant) doll last weekend!
Her name is "Magali" (my mum chose the name because it belongs to one of my students, and she has always loved the sound of that name!).... Magali (like her namesake!) loves to sit around with the gals, drink wine & chat!
Tip-to-toe, she's 3.5 feet of funloving woman! I am charging $300 to make the next one!
