I think I hit the oldest and most mature that I was meant to get and started back in the other direction. At least I hope so.

all painted up and ready for her chemise

I finished the Hitty doll, dressed her in her little chemise (the idea being that Lexi and I will make clothing for her together) and gave her to Lexi on her 7th birthday.

I’m now working on a second Hitty doll. At least I was until I broke the scrolling blade on the bandsaw, so progress has come to a dead stop since I have the head and body finish but no limbs to work on until I buy a replacement blade.

In the meantime boredom (and a distinct lack of yarn) has forced my hand. It has forced my hand into picking up a pencil and putting it to paper and  before I knew it I was sketching out a new automata. Nothing complicated, but I still worry about going back to hobbies that I’ve abandoned because I sometimes worry that I’m not going to be as awesome at them as I remember (or think I remember.)

I need more projects like a hair cut needs a handle. Why do I do this to myself?
