Still More Kokeshi dolls

The pattern testing is nearly done-- well the allotted time for it. I've made 14.5 dolls so far and have resisted the call to explain more (eg. wild hair, flowers) as I have 10 pages of explanation so far and believe that folks have plenty of options therein.

The catalyst for this-- a swap has been delayed for two months, which opens the door to temptation and more work-- I don't want to give away any of the dolls I've made as each one is a learning or improvisation and I feel very connected to each one.
