Part of me is glad that you weren't able to finish it in time to give to a child who would perhaps just chuck her in the corner for other more active toys....sorry perhaps I'm getting rather cynical! Whatever...I loved your sentiments and am sure you have a sweet spirit!

I have to say that this pattern copyright thing annoys me a bit. If you find a pattern for free, I think you should be able to do with it whatever you like. I say "share the crochet love"!!!! I've only created a few patterns and I couldn't be happier if someone managed to make a few dollars from their makes. <br /><br />Have a fab week hon,<br />Leah<br />xxLeahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13245743010825956078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324302543418221669.post-65206550546237431362012-07-06T23:16:39.076-07:002012-07-06T23:16:39.076-07:00Yes; I think it's a gift to be able to be so c...Yes; I think it's a gift to be able to be so crafty, esp a knitter or crocheter b/c of the skill and patience.<br />I love how you respect the creator's wishes. There's a big debate about copyright and the selling of FOs in our world.<br />I think the same way; always seeing a pattern and thinking it'd be perfect for someone I know and love, not for myself.<br />Keep that dream alive and start small!

As someone who loves dolls and have done all my life I think its just divine and I'd have loved one. I get what you say about being a maker, I see something and think I could make that lol. The thing with making things to sell is you will never be able to put a price on the time or effort you put into it thats why they make better gifts for people who'd appreciate them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03237973730193381512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324302543418221669.post-10343111937920975552012-07-05T12:52:22.703-07:002012-07-05T12:52:22.703-07:00Beautiful doll.

Often people do not appreciate how much effort goes into these items and they are often undervalued. I think any craft based skill is under paid. I have also found that it also takes then enjoyment out of what you do when you make to sell. I love to make things for my friends and family knowing they will be loved. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324302543418221669.post-82856395887262169642012-07-05T12:09:02.295-07:002012-07-05T12:09:02.295-07:00I couldn't agree more, especially about the ba...I couldn't agree more, especially about the baby blankets. I've still got all the handmade blankets I received from when the children were young and they have been used and loved each time and they will definitely be handed down or on for a long time. <br />What I love the most about making things is giving them to people as gifts. I think it shows so much more thought than running into a shop and buying something for the sake of it. <br />That doll is adorable!!Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01793086405768109295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324302543418221669.post-63940793520860837372012-07-05T10:35:29.391-07:002012-07-05T10:35:29.391-07:00Oh, that is just TOO cute!
