Nameless girl

She does not have a pedigree. She has no identifying markings. I guess she is probably a supermarket or drugstore mass-produced porcelain doll from the last ten years.

I have been trying to decide if I should make her a Snow White character doll or let her be a Victorian girl as she is. I have washed her blue dress, stockings and pinafore. I am just waiting till I am done with her hair to dress her.

I hesitated over Dresden's prone form, thinking, goodness, even I don't think of her as a BJD, is this really necessary? And then, blindly, cutting the strings. I can't believe I am actually talking about this now. I have not talked about it before. I regretted losing her afterward, because I did not really need to part with her. She was a sweet, special presence, a little woman. I have kept all of her eyes, wigs and clothes. Of course I will never forget the moments in which I divested all of my BJD's of their clothing, wigs and eyes. The other day Henry came around with a little velcro he had found and I grew faint, knowing that it had come fro...
