I haven&#8217;t done production in a long time and I can&#8217;t say I&#8217;m loving it.  I am feeling stressed and anxious, over tired and like I have way too much to do.  Actually a lot of that is holiday related- I think this comes on me every year.  So many demands, so many disruptions.  But, in the end, I tend to find deadlines inspiring and I am happy with how these babies came out.  I played around a bit with the proportions and the pattern.  The face is bigger and the body a slightly different shape.  It always amazes me how much difference even a slight change in the pattern can make in the end shape.  Also, how different the doll can look, depending on  the fabric- this is mostly about the stretch and the stuffing.<\/p>\n<p>This first little one is made from an old wool blanket-<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"blue baby\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/images\/11:21:bluebaby1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I love this vintage ribbon-<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"blue baby face\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/images\/11:21:bluebaby2.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This one was a vest from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.llbean.com\/\">LL Bean<\/a> in a former life-<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"check baby\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/images\/11:21:checkbaby1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I am finally getting to use all the great ribbons I&#8217;ve been collecting for so long-<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"check baby face\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/images\/11:21:checkbaby2.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I love this brown ribbon.
