Well I finally made her and it was a lot of hard work. I am very pleased but not totally satisfied. I need to use springs in stringing her because elastic just does not do it, the tail is too heavy. There is such pressure because I have a lot of debt and a lot on the line. I want to start putting dolls up on ebay but I won't until I have worked out all the bugs. My boyfriend has been paying my kids to do all the housework so I can work. He has faith I can do this but he can't prevent my house from being forclosed on.And even if I lost everything as long as I can eventually make a living from my dolls I should be O.K.
