Ulga

 Last year I took sewing, the class was really boring and all of the patterns we got were hideous. And if we were given fabric, it also, would be hideous. The class could have been extremely queit and boring, but it wasn't for one reason. I had so many friends in that class it wasn't funny. If we were given ugly fabric and and ugly pattern, we'd laugh at our products and complement everybody else's. We would race through the projects so we could make our own things with the scraps. Most of the time, we'd throw them away after laughing about it. My friend Rissa was amazing with the sewing maching. When I was struggling with my bobbin tangling, Rissa would be done with the pajamas, and would be sewing random patterns on the scrap fabric. One time, when I actually caught up to her, I didn't know what to do. After thinking about it for way too long, my goal was decided. I was going to make the world's ugliest doll for my friend, with the ugliest fabric we had. After making up a pattern, and sewing, I came up with this (without the dress and bow) :


When most people see her, they think of Lilo and Stitch, but other than their both misunderstood, I don't think that they're that much alike

Well- after giving Ulga (her name) to my friend, she gave it to a friend who we were joking about him dating the doll, he gave it away,etc, etc. Long story short I demanded the doll back because I found out she ended up with a tatoo on the back of her head and was being used as a toy for a dog. After getting her back, my five year old sister (who was four then) demanded we give her a makeover to make her prettier.

So- the last day of sewing class, I made her a dress, and put a bow on her. After bringing her home, my little sister adored her "OH! She's so pretty! Please Eva, can I keep her?" Avoiding her eyes, I explained that Ulga was very important to me, but she could play with her when she wanted (If you met her- you'd understand, looking away is the best way to say no)

Anyways the moral to the story is: Be with the ones you love, and who love you back, because the ones who just want to hurt you aren't worth it.
