some of the tree i made this year, since at the last moment i remembered that last year the dog ate the tree. like literally. there's the dolls trimming it, and Christmas Eve shots of our gifts under it and the stockings on the wall as Kyu did hobby stuff in the way. xD

Chloe's faceup finally got done as i figured she finally deserved a face for 2011. it's kinda like she's a tiny version of Eve almost. xD seriously slightly smaller than a barbie, she's sitting on top of my design portfolio.

some of Cori and Xavin snuggling. they photograph easiest together since they're my darkest dolls and anyone else gets washed out in pictures with them.. xD like the smidgen of Eve you see in the corner on one of them.

lastly, an example of how i do my pattern drafting. i cut shapes from vellum and tape them together until i have the shape and silhouette i want for the final garment, then i cut darts until it lays flat, trace it onto paper and add a seam allowance. this is for a Vegas showgirl costume i'm doing for Xavin. if the pleats lay right in vellum i KNOW for certain i won't have trouble gathering them in cotton. xD

I loved looking at your designs over Christmas. I am amazed at how much talent you have for this.
