I actually had a dream about giving birth the night before the first doll was stuffed and sewn. Here they are and ready at www.marymakesart.etsy.com. Every doll sold gives a child in hospital a doll. They are great to personalize. A dear friend is ordering several for kids in her family and on Christmas day they will personalize their own dolls with fabric paint (tulip soft fabric paint or fabric markers are great for this project) while they hear the story of how these dolls help kids who are healing in hospital. While the kids enjoy their dolls, their caregivers can view an art exhibition at the same hospital created to encourage and bring hope to families and hospital staff alike! Thank you for your help in the fund raising and telling of this project. Our goal is to have the traveling exhibition reach hospitals all over the nation and give dolls to as many kids in those hospitals as possible! (p.s. orders of 10+ dolls will recieve a discount--dolls are regularly $15 + shipping, but orders of 10+ will recieve their dolls for $10 ea. with shipping included!...please inquire online at www.marymakesart1972@yahoo.com and I will set up an entry on etsy with your name on the item list). Again, this is the maximum time for raising funds by doll and print purchases so we can really get the hope+healing project going! :D We are off to a great start! The first dolls will be given away at Mercy Hospital in Nampa, ID, where the traveling exhibition is currently showing.
