This is inspiring! I had not heard about Dotees before. After looking at Google and Flickr, I wonder how I missed this? They are so cute. I've been studying the subject but most of the references I can find to Dottie Christian lead to a Russian blog that does not have any references to Dolls, but instead have photos of Lindsey Lohan and Marilyn Monroe wearing polka dots. Does that mean that the original Dottie has moved on? I'd like more information about the history or tradition of this doll. One of the sites said Dottie's philosophy was something like "I just want to make people happy".

I made several Dotees yesterday, and dreamt about them last night. This might just become a new obsession. Please sign me up for two exchanges.

I have acurtain rod around here someplace that is the spring action kind and I am going to find where I put it and hang all my dottee dolls from it in my sewing room , to display them. what do you think. they give me a smile every time I look at them. I hope to get enough to have them hanging across the whole window!!!
