Thursday afternoon

I think Zoey's been reading this journal. I wrote here - the day I picked up this silly bit of cat paraphernalia on the free shelf - that soon she'd be tired of it and I'd take it back to the free shelf.

It's her new living room home. Since we turned off the sewing machine light an hour ago, this is where she has been sitting just like this:



She doesn't use it to scratch or massage or do any of the things that the commercial said she is supposed to. She just sits there under the arch. I have company coming on Monday. I want to get that cheap piece of crap out of the living room. Maybe I'll get her to RockPaperSissors me for it.

I feel like the dolls are not creative enough recently. Like I don't have any new doll ideas. But, then I remind myself that really, no two are alike and what does it matter, they will go to different homes.

... is adorable. I'm betting that your guests would enjoy seeing this cuteness overload.

Oh they will see her but they won't see the junky cat toy. Actually they will since they read this journal pretty closely :)

Great cat photo, so typical ignoring the toy part :)

Hahahah omg I love that she's just sleeping in the arch.

Would more boy dolls present a new challenge?

[susandennis]

The boy dolls just don't do it for me but, I really should crank some out. Thanks for the reminder!

Cat in a brush arch == best!

The way I'm still seeing it, all of the dolls are unique. I'm not seeing the similarities as much as the individualities. :) Just the shifts in colors alone make them distinguishable -- these three are wonderful. When you changed the face colors, it seemed that you opened up so many more possibilities/combinations. Just thinking ... what about glasses on some? (That could get tricky though.)

The cat's thing is hilarious.

[susandennis]

Yeah, I've tried glasses in the past and they were kind of fiddly. I may try again. I thought of a new way while I was swimming today. So thanks for the idea!

You are right about their all being individuals. The different colored faces has made a big difference (for the better!).

I have company coming on Monday. I want to get that cheap piece of crap out of the living room.

"Company"? Well, I guess.

It probably looks better than practically anything in *our* living room.

[susandennis]

yeahbutt you do have company coming on Monday!

I think your dolls are wonderfully creative. The basic ideas may not be new, but the way you choose the patterns and colors for each one seems creative to me.

Thank you so much! I do enjoy 'painting' each one with the different fabrics. Also I noticed that when I was packing them up for delivery last month, the ones that I did not love originally or thought were boring, turned out to be my favorites!
