I have received some messages recently asking where I have been for the last few months!  Thanks to everyone for asking and for your concern.  It has been a challenging few months for me with some health problems.  This culminated in surgery last month and several weeks of bed rest.  I am doing very well.

In the meantime, I was getting ready for the Integrity Toys Convention and wasn’t able to list anything on Etsy.  But now I am back from Integrity Toys (which was amazing!) and am ready to get back to making new fashions.  Here I am with two of my favorite people; Rebecca Berry of Inside the Fashion Doll Studio, and Rogier Corbeau of Dutch Fashion Doll World.
