Happy New Year's everyone! I did this last year, so I thought I would do it again this year. This year, though, I am doing my American Girl dolls' and Carpatina doll's resolutions. Here are my dolls' resolutions:
Sarah's Resolution
"I want to work in colonial Williamsburg eventually next year as a historical re-enactor."
Felicity's Resolution
"I want to learn how to fully master my time travel abilities. I haven't quite yet figured them out." Z's Resolution
"...well, since I have been doing so many AGSMs (American Girl Stop Motions), I thought
it would be cool to try doing hand-drawn animation or claymation next year."
Alfred's Resolution
"I hope that next year, I can help the Patriots in some way against the Red Coats.
I am not sure how I will I do it, but I will figure that out as next year commences..."
Tenney's Resolution
"Next year I want to release an album or a single." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- What are your dolls' New Year's resolutions?
Love,
Quinley
P.S. The next part of Red Coats on the Horizon is almost ready.
I changed my mind about which photo story I would post. Instead of posting the other AG doll story, that I lost somewhere, I decided that this one would be better (since this one has more of a plot to it, and I had more fun taking these photos). The only thing that I wish I had done for this photo story is to dress my dolls in clothes for fall (since they were wearing summer clothes).
Felicity held tightly onto her horse’s mane. She could feel the sweat on her hands.
She couldn’t let go, she couldn’t or the Red Coats would catch up to her…she couldn’t…
Do you wonder how Felicity ended up being chased by Red Coats? Well, it didn’t start out like that, in fact it started with a song, yes a song.
And no not a song like Yankee Doodle, or any of those songs that you may think I mean…but a song by someone no other than Tenney.
You see she had been suffering from songwriter’s block, and couldn’t come up with a new song…
“Bravo!” shouted Z,
Felicity smiled, “It’s beautiful.”
“Thank you.” sighed Tenney, “but that’s one of my old songs, and I am trying to come up with a new one…but I have no ideas what so ever…that’s why I asked you, Felicity and Z for advice…perhaps you two have ideas.”
Z thought for a moment and then said,
“You could write a song about American Girl dolls…You have never written a song about them.”
Tenney nodded, “maybe…” she then turned to look at Felicity,
“Do you have any ideas?”
Felicity sighed and stood there for a few minutes and then said slowly,
“Let me think about it…once I have an idea, I will be sure to tell you.”
“Thank you…” sighed Tenney, you could tell that she was rather disappointed that the songwriter part of her mind was not working.
“Anyway,” she said, “I better go…I have a show to practice for.”
“Bye!” said Z and Felicity at the same time.
Felicity then turned to Z, “I better go, too!” Before Z could even say “goodbye” to her, Felicity had gone around the corner of the tree, and vanished.
She sighed and muttered a very small, “goodbye” and then looked around.
A smile appeared on her face, “This would be the perfect place to do a stop motion.”
Felicity sighed, and looked down at her necklace, the time travel had worked.
And oh good, Elizabeth was still there…
“Lissie!” she said, turning around, “Good that you're still here, I wondered what happened to you…”
“Oh nothing.” responded Felicity. “Just thought I should enjoy the fresh air you know, anyway…you seem a little bit jumpy are you alright?”
“I’m f-fine.” responded Elizabeth, and then turned to look around, and then stared back at Felicity,
“Alright, I’m not fine…I will tell you what happened, but we can’t talk about it here.”
Felicity nodded, and they began walking through the forest. As they were walking, Felicity realized she had forgotten to hide her necklace. Thankfully Elizabeth had been too nervous to notice it.
While they were walking Felicity quickly stuffed the necklace in her dress. She sighed and then turned to Elizabeth. They had made it half way through the forest and were nearly to the town of Williamsburg, perhaps she would be ready to talk about whatever it was now.
“Elizabeth, do you think this a good place to talk about it?” asked Felicity, and promptly leaned onto the branch that was in the center of their path.
Elizabeth shook her head, “No, Felicity, it’s not.” she half whispered, and then began walking again.
They had nearly made it out of the forest and Felicity was fighting back the desire to ask again. It felt like a pain inside of her. What had scared her best friend? What was going on with her? Felicity sighed, well she could at least ask one thing,
“Where do you exactly want to talk?” asked Felicity.
Elizabeth seemed to be deep in thought, finally after a little bit she said,
“How about somewhere like your father’s store…but it must be somewhere were no one can hear what we are saying.”
Felicity nodded, at least she knew where Elizabeth wanted to talk, but what did she want to tell her? The pain of not knowing still firmly enveloped Felicity, she couldn’t let something like that hurt her best friend.
Hi everyone,
I try not to do two photo shoots one after another, but I really wanted to do this one so...
in this photo shoot Sarah is dressed as Deborah Sampson, a woman who disguised herself as man, so that she could fight in the Revolutionary war:
I like the camera setting I did for this photo, it makes it look
somewhat like an old photo.
Now this in the normal setting, I like the way it looks.
Hi everyone, finally I wrote a doll welcome home photo story!!!!
--------------- Bam!!
I turned around, “Uhh..are you alright Viola?” I asked.
“The famous Shakespearian actress Viola is fine!” said Viola, emerging with a giant tree which was twice her size.
“How art thou, Sarah?” she asked, trying to sound Shakespearian.
“Umm..Fine’th” I answered, Trying to sound as Shakespearian as possible…but judging from Viola’s expression I had failed…
“Now anyway, why don’t we put up the tree?” I asked.
“Of course fair Sarah” replied Viola, I was not quite sure what to say to that, so I got the ornaments out and started decorating the tree. Just as put I up one of the ornaments, there was a loud knocking on the door.
“I’ll get it” I said, it was probably the mailman. I opened the door, and two girls were standing there, they both had strawberry blond hair, and hazel eyes.
“Hi” said The older girl. “We were looking for a girl named Quinley? Do you know her? Are we at the right house?”
There was a silence, then I replied…
“Yes you are at the right house, I’m Sarah, this is Viola” I said, gesturing to Viola.
“Nice to meet you, I’m Maryellen this is my little Sister Willa.” said Maryellen. The girl next to her shyly waved but didn’t seemed to be paying attention. It was like she was thinking of something else.
“Anyway, you must be cold. She can come in,” I said, opening the door.
Maryellen and Willa, walked in. Willa took off her hat, which revealed a cute bunny ear headband she was wearing. Maryellen took of the shawl she was wearing, then helped Willa get out of jacket and scarf.
“So…” I said. “Why are you looking for Quinley?”
Maryellen looked up, “oh…” she replied, she was quiet for a minute.
She explained her whole adventure to get there…it was long and dangerous.
“Sounds like something from one of Shakespeare’s plays” said Viola.
Maryellen looked somewhat confused when Viola said that. I leaned over and said “She likes Shakespeare, if you are wondering.”
“Oh,” replied Maryellen smiling. “I’m sure I’ll get along just fine."

I hope you liked the story, anyway way here are some pictures of Maryellen and Willa:
