My friend and maker of wonderful things, Mimi Kirchner drove down from Arlington on Monday and we spent the day together. For those of you who haven’t discovered Mimi, visit her blog, Doll, as soon as you read this post. She inspired me to write my own blog and just recently, to open an Etsy shop. We met 30 years ago, when we were members of the Christmas Store, a seasonal craft coop in Cambridge, MA. We always have a lot to talk about because we’re interested in the same kind of things and our lives have taken us in similar directions, both personally and professionally. Mimi brought a Tattoo magazine that features her tattooed dolls in their Christmas gift guide. She also showed me the new Land of Nod catalog that includes several of her doll designs. It was a glorious fall day and we talked about art and our lives as we walked from my house, through Beebe Woods and into Falmouth center to have lunch. It was great to see you, Mimi!
what fun…two talented ladies and lunch too!
Two of my favorite artists together. Wonderful!
I was lucky enough to have a Mimi visit years ago myself. Ran into her at the Vintage Textile Show in Sturbridge this past year. It is a small world! What fun that you know each other so long! Mimi’s great! Great photo!
Salley, how far a walk is that? I’m jealous!
Hi Emily, it takes about a half hour to walk into town. Nice and short!
I love Mimi’s work and blog and was SO happy to discover you through her today!
