SOLSTICE

The Doll's Christmas Tree
The year darkens, then lightens...the tides ebb and flow...the moon waxes and wanes...likewise does the creative drive fluctuate from day to day, month to month, year to year. If we are willing to listen, the universe will teach us: to work with these immutable cycles, not against them.

    Love the doll's Christmas tree, Wendy! What about the Betsy McCall doll I made that we all gave you? I hope she'll join the party here!

      I'm not sure which one is the Betsy McCall doll---do you mean the American Girl doll? I haven't gotten all of them out of their boxes...not yet anyway.

      I mean the cloth doll I made; she's in the trunk Dad made with colorful floral paper on the outside!
