Of course we still had a second birthday girl to create for.  So here is her dolly on the left.  I wasn't happy with the neck, so I added a ruffle. 






Then of course my youngest had endured mommy making dolls all day long and the next day he wanted one of his own.  So I did a little more research and made him a froggy.














Then the laundry provided a shirt of his that had been stained up for too long. And I decided to make him a baby.  By now my dear husband thought I had found a new hobby.  I think I agree!

















Third child came home from school mortified that he did not yet have a creation of his own.  So, he designed and mommy sewed and we ended up with an adorable alien.  Suits our little crazy boy perfectly.













After the birthday party yesterday, my second born asked for a teddy bear.  I again was not happy with the neck and decided that we would use the collar from the shirt I had made the bear from .  I was pleased with the result.




Why do you ask have I not made one for our oldest child?  The only girl doesn't want a dolly?  Um, no.  Rolled eyes from the almost 11 year old.  Maybe she will come around in a couple of days though, because I only have enough fiberfill left to make one more.  Which is probably a good thing since I would love to make dozens of them.
