I don’t blame you a bit for wondering what I was up to when we were exchanging emails about your “Complete Doll Making” CD. I had some contacts who want such a CD, but hesitated to recommenc it until I could preview it, so offered to trade advertising for a copy if it turned out that it was as claimed. Glad we could get acquainted and come to an understanding, and I’m going to be giving some referrals! So glad you’re going to make more CDs for distribution!

When Karen first emailed me about my CD “Complete Doll Making”, I immediately thought….. This is another “gimme” email. I came to this site to check it out and to my astonishment, found this website to be such a wonderful way of doll artists to communicate.

I now feel very honored to be able to share my instructional Cd
on such a wonderful group.

I shall pass along this site to all my customers. I am the sculptress of the ” Little Reb Ladies”…… Debbie, Jamie Marie, Jessica LaRue, Betty Ruth, Madison Brie and Judith.

thank you, Karen for writing me and introducing me to a “new world”.

Did you happen to see the tip about minimizing seamlines in this column? Your dark seamlines sound like the same problem, so rather than repeating the info here, please take another look at the column. Hope you get better results when you try those suggestions! Good luck!
