In October 2017 Blythecon Brooklyn was about to take place, and I came to the decision that there was just no way I could logistically make the trip happen. With a heavy heart I sold my ticket. At the time my son was still too young to travel that far easily or affordably, and as a single Mom I had few options.

​

I'm one of those turn lemons-into-lemonade-types, so I decided to start the first ever online Blythe doll convention. The idea for Blythe vs. Blythe was born from an idea I had the year prior where I thought it would be fun to give two artists the same doll and theme, and see how they customize it differently.

​

That portion became the "main event", but like other in-person conventions, I wanted to add games, prizes, demos, and community building.

And so I did.

​

Blythe vs. Blythe is now a community, a family really, of supportive Blythe fans who come together to enjoy the hobby in a positive environment.
