I thought about drawing a zipper. You'll notice those "staples" are all identical. Placing them closer to together, I could have made a zipper. This was far more efficient/lazy. Your story about it being a doll reminded me of the one I had to make in school when I was a kid. It had brown hair and the button eyes. Didn't even think of that until now. I must admit my mom did most of the work and I kept all the grades.
That sticker does sound out of place. When I was a kid, we were afraid of apples and would never eat them but I'd always make sure to keep the sticker. Those stickers on apples were "cool" when I was a kid.
This was the first Halloween both my kids are adults, on their own, did their own thing. That's what made this one special or different.
It has been awhile and I'm always happy to see you.
