Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Kitty's New Outfit

 

Her pink floral dress is made from double gauze. This was the first time I had used this fabric and it's not the easiest fabric to lay and cut, but it turned out okay. The tunic (a new design) is 21 wale cord and they both close at the back with press studs (snaps).

    She looks cute, and seasonal for y'all. It IS summer down under, isn't it?

    Such a lovely outfit! It suits the doll so well. You can really tell how high-quality and carefully crafted the tailoring is. I always enjoy looking at your work and reading about the fabrics you choose, as I also make doll clothes and love experimenting with different textiles. Thank you for sharing your experience and these wonderful photos 💗
