It worked!

I spent nearly an hour and a half cleaning in here (I turned the microwave timer off with a little over five minutes left), and while it's still not perfect, I'm happy.
I was just going to call the pastor's wife to see if I could get a ride to the pharmacy, when she called me and invited me to lunch at her house. I accepted, and aske about the ride. She said after some thought that she could pick me up to take me there around noon. I was happy with that, though I wondered if the pharmacy would be closed for lunch around that time. I called, and the little robo-voice said that the pharmacy closed for lunch at 12:30. I called the pastor's wife back and said that noon wouldn't work, as if there was a line when I got there and I had to wait my turn, it might take until 12:30 when they closed and I didn't want to waste her time. She said "We'll have to go tomorrow." Okay, then.
Anyway, as to the title of the post, I took out one of the little pads that I had gotten for putting scent in the dolls, and cut it into fourths. After that, I took one of the finished dolls and tried to slip it into the body, and it worked! Granted, the pads will fit easier depending on the body of the doll, but I'm just so happy it worked. I hope I haven't made any dolls that the pads won't fit into, or are ridiculously difficult to get the pads in.
So, things are moving along.
I'm looking forward to that craft show!

They don't have to. The pads are for putting a drop of essential oil or something so that the doll can be used as and air freshener.
