Well, here's how my Retro GuardianAngel turned out from Elinor's class on June 2nd.  I took a bunch more photos and they can be viewed on my Flickr account:

:clap: Lisa,
Your piece is wonderful and so TRUE to the Elinor's philosophy. She was, and is, the original Wild Woman! About 20 years ago while I was living in NYC Elinor came for a show and visited my friend, Colette Wolfe, also well-known as a fabric artist. Colette told the story of how Elinor came to NYC wearing her dress with at least a dozen little dolls attached. (Only Elinor could carry off that kind of dress  bear_grin ) She stopped traffic! They attended a prestigious museum show and Elinor was the *Star*  :dance:  She is a force of nature!

Great doll. Is there no end to your creative abilities!

A few years ago I was dropping off some things at my quilt store and my son with with me. He was in high school (yikes, so it must have been more like 5 or 6 years ago) and as we were leaving, epb (who was giving a class that day) came walking across the back parking lot all dressed in her "normal attire" which is anything but normal to most people...stripes, plaids, flowers, reds, oranges, yellows, greens...about every color, with a dozen dolls hanging off of her outfit and a red hat with a daisy hanging off of it. I got such a kick out of my son's expression when he saw her.
