Join us while we each make one of these adorable and simple dolls! This swap will only be for one doll, unless otherwise agreed upon by each participant. Some options for added items are accessories or clothing for the doll or for other
Black Apple inspired creations. Note that this is a SEWN doll, either hand or machine sewn. Accessories or other items may be crafted in another way, but construction of the doll is non-negotiable.
Directions for the doll can be found here, along with a template:
http://www.marthastewart.com/article/black-apple-dollNote: Again, sending extra items beyond the doll is completely optional! I will try to match partners based on who wants to make/receive what.

Please put "Black Apple" in the title of all pms.

All participants must check in at least once a week, by pm or by posting in this thread.
