There are shy people and there are really, really, really shy people. Primitive Andy is one of those people. He could very well be the shyest person in the world.
Well, maybe we should clarify that. He could very well be the shyest "dollie" in the world.
He just hates to draw attention to himself, hates to be the center of attention, hates talking before an audience, hates to have his picture taken, and hates having things written about him. The latter is why he has gone 7 years without a story.
And, all this attention being draw to that fact in the latest "dollie stories" fiasco on "The Dollie Storage Room" blog and Linda's Blog doesn't make him happy. No, not happy at all!
What all the "dollies" don't know is that he asked Linda not to write a story about him. He's just to shy and would prefer not to have one. Well, the latest fiasco makes that a little impossible now. And, given that his pattern was just revised he had no confidence in being able to convince Linda, once again, not to tell his story.
Here's his story:
"Primitive Andy" has the distinct honor of being the first primitive doll that Linda designed and likes to pride himself on being small, lean, and, well, adorable. Just don't tell anyone he said that and just don't draw any attention to him. "Primitive Andy" is probably the shyest "dollie" in the world. And, he's just fine with that.
He just hates to draw attention to himself, hates to be the center of attention, hates talking before an audience, hates to have his picture taken, and hates having things written about him. It was tough enough for him to have his picture taken for his pattern. He was on edge for several days before and sick to his stomach. But, Linda assured him there would only be two people in the studio taking pictures. She would be there and "Primitive Andy" would be there. No one else.
So, "Primitive Andy" agreed.
"Primitive Andy" has a coffee stained cloth body, embroidered face with two-button eyes, and loads of freckles.
He's wearing a coffee stained and fringed shirt with 3/4 length fringed sleeves, buttons and patches. His tattered and fringed pantaloons are gathered at the waist and middle of his calves and have patches. He has a small tattered ribbon tied around his neck, and raggedy red cut hair along the sides and top of his head. Floss is sewn to his feet and legs for his raggedy red stripes.
If you look closely at "Primitive Andy's" pictures you may see a little trepidation in his face. He could barely muster a smile when Linda said, cheese!" He knows there's only Linda and himself in the studio taking his picture, but he's just so shy. He really would prefer not to be photographed at all.
He's just unbelievably shy. Probably the shyest "dollie" in the world. But, he's just fine with that! Not everyone needs there 15 minutes of fame! Certainly not "Primitive Andy."
