Child's Own Studio She (on Make it and love it) goes into a tutorial of how make one yourself. How cool is this??? What an awesome idea! I thought I'd pass this on under Creative Sewing. ------ Evelyn: Pfaff Creative Performance Helen V: Babylock Companion BL1550

I did this with my daughter's drawings years ago (she's 18 now). My mother took my siblings' drawings and embroidered them on a wallhanging way back in the 70s. What great memories. ------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Visit my blog: www.myeclecticmess.com My machines: Bernina 180E - my right hand and best friend since 2000!

A spot-on ABSOLUTE COPY in 3D. The kid was mildly impressed, but her parents and grandparents were stupefied! I copied and shrunk a photo of the drawing and made everyone a set of notecards to accompany the dolls as holiday gifts to my sister and her mother-in-law. My sister's father-in-law is a prominent modern artist of the 20th century. For years, they've displayed that doll centrally in their home right along with the paintings! j.
