Ricky Is Crafty!

Status report for your general amusement ... this may be a lot funnier to those familiar with Steiner/Waldorf education.

Number of Steiner-type flannel dolls finished to give to friends with newborns: 2

Evidence:


For the record, this has been my main "carry around when I go out and sew while waiting" project for the last little while. This is relevant to the following statistics.

Number of people who have spotted me sewing these and asked if I was a Steiner kid: 1

Number of people who have not recognised the nearly finished dolls as dolls and asked what my "cushion" was for: 1

Number of people who have asked when I was adding the "face" or exclaimed sadly over the lack of defined features: 7


Fun had while explaining why my cushion was a doll, or why my doll had no facial features: PRICELESS!

I am tempted to start making felt gnomes now, just for my own amusement as people react to them...

... and the subgenii. Troll can do that.

[acelightning]

he'll be much better at that than i am. SubGenii seem to keep eluding me... some of my son's friends are SubGenii, and i hung out with one of them for a while - a guy who is a personal friend of Stang's - but they always seem to wander off...
