Christmas Tree Dolls

Kokopelli members made some lovely ornaments to decorate a tree for the Albuquerque Carrie Tingley Festival of Trees.

The dolls were donated to benefit the Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation, which provides assistance for special needs children and their families.

You can see the decorated art doll tree and many, many others at the Festival of Trees, November 21 through 29 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Albuquerque. Click on the link for more information!

Arley Berryhill's Witch Doll Class

Those who signed up to take the Evil Queen Candlestick Doll Class with Arley Berryhill had varying levels of expertise, but all came away with lots of great knowledge and a wonderful doll.  The class was taught at Village Wools in northern Albuquerque in mid-August.  Several people came in from out of town for the class as well - two from Oklahoma and one from Chicago!  Here are some photos.
