I challenge ANY Maya/Max arteest to a RL knitting, sewing, crocheting, quilting competition and well see  how they can stand up to the REAL thing. 

OOPS....I'm a lw user.  But, hey, I do all that stuff (except the knitting)pretty well, still, though I don't have the time for it of late.  My grandmother was a dollMAKER....she taught me a good deal.  I've never had a Barbie :*0  Maybe, that last bit sums up this whole thread.  Some make the dolls, others collect them for show.
