No one who came in seemed to think it is very odd that I make dolls.  Not very many people came.  Maybe I can blame it on the misprint on the Open Studios map.  They had the wrong street number listed&#8230; some people who came said they had almost given up looking.  Gerry, who owns the store, said it was slow even for a regular weekend!  Thank you so much, all of you who made it.  I really appreciate it!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"10:18:asiab.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/archives\/10:18:asiab.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The big news is that I sold a doll!  This doll is called &#8220;Asia Baby&#8221; and there are more pictures of her <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cozy.org\/pics\/gourds\">here<\/a>.  I  left 3 dolls in the store to see if they attract any attention.<\/p>\n<p>I always feel it is worthwhile doing something like the Open Studio.  I never know who will show up and it will always be more people then would come up to my attic any day!  Someone who never thought they&#8217;d be interested in a doll might be caught or I might meet someone who has been interested in dolls for years, lives right around the corner from me, and I never knew them.  Plus, it gives me a deadline to finish up projects and that is something I need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, let&#8217;s see&#8230; I think I would say that it was very good to be showing my dolls in a store that is already about textiles.
