| Occupation | Slave to the Sewing Machine, PA for a flock of dolls. |
| Location | California, United States |
| Introduction | I design, pattern and sew clothing for ball joint dolls, (and sometimes myself!) with a focus on Retro, Historical, and Vintage Fashion styles. I love Japanese manga and anime for fashion inspiration. Because of the dolls, I am also learning about photography, furniture making, carving, jewelry making, everything I would have never dared to try before. What really attracts me to ball joint dolls is the problem solving aspect of getting everything done in 1/3 or less scale, with the materials on hand. And yeah, we are vanlifers. In 2016, with the help of dear friends, we hit the road. About a million people now live and work a normal, thriving and productive life as vanlifers by choice. Remember that saying, Just Do It? |
