Author Biography
Over the years of working doll-sized designs has provided me the instant gratification I seek when exploring new stitch patterns, practicing and/or improving techniques. In my desire to showcase these designs I also welcome the opportunity to share in my second love of photography, as I strive to capture that childhood innocence with realistic poses all through the eyes of my dolls. I invite you to take a moment to turn the pages before diving into your first project to peer into the 'lives' of my Kidz 'n' Cats dolls through an entire calendar year depicted in volumes one and two.
