Patiently Waiting

Patience is the companion of wisdom.

--St. Augustine

This is Patience, my Veronica Lace Blythe doll. I like this St. Augustine quote so much, I may have to name a doll "Wisdom" to be her companion!!

When I came into the hobby in 2012, Veronica Lace was one of the dolls I wanted the most, because of her gorgeous hair: it is light brown with purple strands mixed through it. She was one of the more expensive dolls (and still is), so I was happy when, a year or two later, I found her used, at a reasonable price, in a Facebook group.

The hair is still the thing I love most about Blythe, although now I gravitate mainly towards dolls with wilder hair colors. Patience's quieter look adds some nice variety to my dolly family. 

  

Happy Thanksgiving 2017

Wishing you a Thanksgiving Day

Ugh. It's just been one thing after another since the Sonny Angels came to stay.

The guy in the front is a Sonny Angel. The girl who has to clean up after him is the well-named Patience, my Veronica Lace Blythe doll.

Patience always finds herself thinking holy thoughts when she is surrounded by nature.

This pretty girl is Veronica Lace.

Old-Fashioned Patience and Non-Posionous Ivy

Yesterday's post worked out just fine, I'm happy to report! Blogging from my iPhone is surprisingly easy. Thank you Jessica for your comment--I will try the trick of doing a slight crop and then saving the pictures to  make sure they are right-side up.

Last week I found two good deals on dolls I had been eyeing for a while.  First came Patience (Veronica Lace):

...and then came--turn around, girl!

Ivy! Ivy is a Prima Dolly Amaryllis.  Their styles couldn't be more different, and I love them both.
