Hello! My name is Linda Walsh and I am a doll maker and doll pattern designer.

I thought you might like to see a picture of who I am, but as you can tell from the picture above I always have to be different.

Now, I know what you're going to say. You're going to tell me that that isn't a picture of you, Linda! Well, you're right! It's a picture of The Little Victorian Girl that has become my Linda Walsh Originals mascot and logo.

So, why am I showing that as a picture representing me? For a really good reason - SURVIVAL!!!!!!

You see, I live in a house filled with over 1,796 handmade dolls and, they rule everything.

Albeit, I created all of them and they aren't human. But, that doesn't matter to them. They out vote me just by sheer numbers.

So, to keep peace in The Dollie Storage Room, which is where they live - over the garage, I had to make the picture that represents all of us The Little Victorian Girl.

We, that is, all the dolls and I, are the owners of Linda Walsh Originals which sells Doll Patterns For Grown-up Girls! and Linda Walsh Originals E-Patterns which sells Instant Download E-Patterns For Grown-up Girls!

We have a brand new FREE 2009 Linda Walsh Originals Print Patterns and E-Patterns E-Catalog that contains pictures of all 275 of our doll and craft designs.
