OK, I FINALLY got my new MJ Magazine in the mail today!
Thank you to whatever little bird tapped the publisher on the shoulder. I not only got a very nice note explaining a snafu, I got the magazine too!
I can hardly wait to sit down and read it cover to cover!
It feels like Christmas!

Oh Alee, it's just wonderful! Did you read the article about the little boy who dances? The end made me cry. I've just skimmed through everything but I love the look. I do wish more of MJ's products were in it but perhaps they'll dd more in the future. What was your favorite part?

Hmm- Do I have to pick a favorite part? I love all the decorating ideas as I am really looking forward to "doing up" the house/apartment/home that we will be setting up in Montana in the Fall. The story about the boy who dances is amazing!

gurlz .. try making longer and skinnier arms and legs .. that always makes for a cute dolly ... i usually cut the arms a bit shorter than the legs. don't make them too long .. cuz' they can kinda' resemble a 'monkey' if they are as long as the legs .. but don't make them toooo short either. about 5/8th or 6/8th's the length of the legs is usally a good rule. stand up and drop your hands to your sides .. see where your fingertips end .. i try to do 'about' that on my dollys too.
