This my selling, trade, and doll journal. I'm known as Quaisior on Pullip and other doll sites and on Flickr. I have a friends only and a book journal here at LJ also. I've been collecting dolls forever and just recently got to buy my first Pullip and my collection has snowballed to nine dolls. I also love 60's to 80's Barbie, other 80's toys, Momoko, Blythe, and other Asian dolls. I sew and knit for dolls and just this week, I started making mini food from polymer clay. I've also made furniture out of recycled materials for my dolls and I'm planning to build a dollhouse this winter. I'm trying to open an Etsy shop but I've had one problem after another. I just need to resize some images and I'll be all set to list my first item.

I've been listening to Little Women and this passage resonated with me as a collector of many imperfect dolls: "There were six dolls to be taken up and dressed every morning, for Beth was a child still and loved her pets as well as ever. Not one whole or handsome one among them, all were outcasts till Beth took them in, for when her sisters outgrew these idols, they passed to her because Amy would have nothing old or ugly. Beth cherished them all the more tenderly for that very reason, and set up a hospital for infirm dolls. No pins
were ever stuck into their cotton vitals, no harsh words or blows were ever given them, no neglect ever saddened the heart of the most repulsive, but all were fed and clothed, nursed and caressed with an affection which never failed."
