Hi, I
am P.K. Gracia the mastermind behind the "Soft in the Head"
creations. I have been asked many times why I make dolls
and my response has always been, "it's cheaper than a
shrink!" I love creating and going into that world of
"anything is possible"! I enjoy sharing my secrets with
everyone. I am totally self-taught and most times the
technique I use is based on an accident that happened and
worked. I try to include everything you see in the picture
in my pattern or at least where it can be found or done. My
phone number and e-mail are printed on the front of every
pattern. So if there are "EVER" any questions call or
e-mail me. I live with the philosophy that the smile and
feeling you get from your creation is the goal and the money
is the perk. I hope you will enjoy a "Soft in the Head"
pattern now and then. You can't help but laugh out loud a
little when your doll is finished, it's a curse I put on
every pattern.........P.K.
Please note: Paper Patterns &
E-Patterns cannot be mixed in the same order. If you want both
types of patterns, you must do two separate orders, first one
and then the other.
