i happen to love my tree too! i took a class from the owner of www.sagedreamdesign.com and that is what we made. the top is open too and i made a little nest with some eggs that fit inside (you can actually see it next to the tree - except a gnome is in it) i am trying to get her to hold a doll-making class at my house soon.

don't worry selena - YOUR forte is pretty awesome!!!!

Dear Mom and Dad- I may parent differently than you did. This does not mean that I think you did it "wrong." However, it also does not mean I am doing it wrong.

Your work is really amazing!

I so envy you that you could take a class with sagedramdesigns. I would so love to take a class with her (I found her playscapes in May I think). Alas, at least then she was only doing classes in CA.

Any chance you would take a closer picture of your dragons and your knitted or is it crochet fir tree?
