Out with the old

Out with the old but nothing new coming yet 😀. I have been clearing my old patterns which I used to just put them into envelopes and shove them into the drawers. Thought I would use them one day but there were so many cuttings and drawings that I have now forgotten which doll's I made with them. So I decided to get rid of all the ones I had no clue about. 
Now I can actually close the drawer without scrunching other things.



I was also trying to find a sketch of a leg. Well I did find loads of them some long some short some fat and some thin but did I find what I wanted nope. So I have to definitely get back to the drawing board😀.

    I can’t tell you how many times I do things like that Shashi and then realise I’ve thrown out something that I really need. I hope that doesn’t happen to you – but maybe just check through all those papers one last time you might even find the ‘missing’ leg. :-)

      Ha ha that's exactly what I did , checked the bin again just to make sure. I did not find anything worthwhile to keep. Now I have drawn a new leg.😀

    I need to toss some old body part drawings (and body parts) as well...no clue as to which doll or whether there even was a doll to which some of them belonged... and, I have a basket of heads...none finished really... what will I ever do with them now? Nothing, that's what....

      Oh don't toss away the heads. Are they all fabric? You could make the face up with paperclay and make a doll. See if any of the other parts roughly match up and dress it up in costume hat will hide the arms and legs etc so that no one can tell the difference.

    can be good to have a big clear out, sometimes helps with the head and creativity (and getting some space back lol)

    Yes I am determined to finish this doll I started. None of the body parts are as I would like them to be but I shall finish it and hopefully no one will be the wiser to all the mistakes in the doll😀

    I know what you mean. Good for you! I hung onto mine, just in case and eventually had to throw some away, too.

      I am sure I will regret throwing something away at some point but it's all gone now hopefully I won't need any of it.
