Flower lady is #50!

This is my fiftieth doll of 2008- A goal has been reached!

When I totalled up all my sales from 2007, I figured out that I had sold 50 dolls. My goal for 2008 became- make at least 50 dolls and I’ve made it! From now on, everything I make will feel like the next level. Here are all the dolls from this year, so far.

This past Saturday, I went on an expedition up to Concord, NH for the Concord Arts Market. It was so much fun! My friend Katy organized it. Jessica and Lucie- buddies from Boston Handmade- were showing their work. I was on the jury to choose the vendors and it was so much fun to see the work in person. And, I finally got to meet Susan from Artstream! It was a great day!
