Waiting.
She hasn’t told me her name yet. Because… you know…. she wants her hair… I’m working as hard as I can to oblige. Doing wefted hair wigs is hard on my hands, do I need to spread the work over a couple of days…
Katia.
Often, I work on dolls alongside each other for months without showing them. Working in groups is like making families. The current family is in preparation for the Cabbagetown art and craft show next weekend. Katia wants big girl clothes she tells me. Yes, she is not quite a little girl anymore. But when nobody is watching, she can giggle and snuggle and make the funniest faces. That’s just for us to know though….
