Remember that paper doll<\/a> we were handing out at Quilt Market last October?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Well, how cute are these? Miniature versions of the paper doll, in postcard form! We’re sending these to shops who book our trunk shows<\/a> as a promotional tool; they can send the postcards to customers or keep them at the counter as a takeaway to announce the show. <\/p>\n

I haven’t tried to cut out the little doll and her dresses because they’re awfully small. Or, as S would say, they’re “teeny-tiny.” But if you had a lot of patience and a steady hand they could be lots of fun.<\/p>\n

Paper doll number two (A boy! Hurray!) is on his way to the illustrator today. I’m sure he’ll be just as adorable as the S doll, and he’s based on a playmate and downstairs neighbor. We’ll call him “Oliver,” I suppose, although the real Oliver lives just a few buildings away. Eventually we’ll have all our friends and neighbors involved in this company in one way or another. <\/p>\n

My weary husband plays a big role in the running of this little operation as well, although he probably won’t be showing up as a paper doll anytime soon, cute as he is. Today while he was attending to a potential computer problem he referred to it as a PICNIC error. Want to know what that is?<\/p>\n

“Problem In Chair, Not In Computer.”<\/p>\n

Unfortunately I was the one sitting at the time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
