Would anyone out there like to try dollmaking?  I love creating dolls from wool felt with painted faces and yarn or synthetic hair.  If you'd like to know more, visit my website -- www.TheDollLoft.com!  I just published my first book O-M-G!!!  Its called Doll Fashionistas and its all about the amazing and creative world of doll making and doll fashion.  I hope you like it!
