Portrait Challenge – Me!

Nancy created this doll for me as part of the Out of the Box Portrait Challenge for our Feb ’09 group meeting (see my project for Gladys here). I knew it was me when I saw the colored pencils! Wow, she did such an incredible job. Thread to make the curly hair and and that wonderful pointy nose!

I definitely scored in the swap. Nancy’s detail work is amazing, I feel so lucky to own it!

    She did really amazing work. Wow!

    I’m looking forward to the shot of you in the big girl version of that dress! ;) Maybe for the summer solstice?

    what amazing work — love the doll! my sister knit a doll of me holding a diploma (i’m working on my dissertation) and there’s something very good-juju about having a little crafty version of yourself around.
