About our Blythe Workshop Customizers Emily Materick is a after hours artist from Toronto with dreams of one day spending all her time creating with her sewing machine & camera. After the first custom doll she created, a mohair punk named Rufus, she teamed up with the amazing Ms. Misty from New Orleans to form SKM. Since then not only has her personal collection grown to include a multitude of Blythes, Asian ball jointed dolls and tiny plastic food but customers world wide have welcome SKM's beautiful and sometimes a little spooky creations into their homes. Recently, SKM has begun creating one of kind dolls for sale on Ebay and welcomed seamstress extraordinaire, Kitty from Idaho to their team. Amy Greenan is an artist from the Buffalo, NY area who fell for Blythe two years ago and hasn't looked back since. Her growing family of ten girls includes four who continually challenge her customizing skills -- Mette (an unknown mohair), Franz Ballard (Lounging Lovely), Yuki (Candy Carnival), and Thera Margit (Disco Boogie), the latter who turned into a loving collaborative effort with fellow workshop instructor Emily Materick. She is fascinated by Blythe fashion, loves painting "the perfect lip", and has a special place in her heart for short-haired girls and EBLs. Amy has plans to launch a Blythe clothing line this summer and hopes to work on more projects with SKM in the future. |
