New Annies - even an Andy!

Happy Monday to all.  I have to confess something. I have been on a terrible funk lately. I have not been enthusiastic for crafting, creating, much less sewing. Has anyone been through this? Is this what they call spring fever? Whatever it is, I need to snap out of it.  I am so behind in getting my crafts ready for the coming fall show.

 

For this doll I drew and painted her eyes just a little different from my usual.  I think it gives her a much different look from my other dolls.

 

 

 

These guys are your average Annie and Andy.  My dolls (when in the mood) normally takes me about 6 or 7 hours to complete.  These two only took me 2 weeks!  Lol 

 

 

Both dolls are available in my Etsy shop.

 

 

Oh well - here's hoping my Mojo comes back soon!  Have a wonderful week and blessings to all.

 

 

Hugs,

 

 

 

 

 



Sorry, No New Dolls....

Since I hadn't posted in a while, I thought I'd let you all know what I've been up to. This month is flying! Two weekends ago I attended a Christian Women's ACTs Retreat.  I don't know if any of you have ever attended a religious retreat before, but this was my first and I have to tell you it was wonderful.  It can be so emotional, but so uplifting.  It was beautiful.

Next, I joined a Block of the Month group at a nearby quilt shop. We are working on a wool bed cover (which I will hang mine) by Maggie Bonanomi. It consists of both hand-dyed wool and   velveteen.  I had never worked with velveteen before, but can tell you it's been a challenge for me.   I love it and can't wait to have it finish.

Here is block one.

Block two

   

This is the pattern.  I wanted to show you what it will end up looking like.



 Besides going on that retreat, working on my BOM and custom order dolls - I have been doing a little planting.  Since Spring has finally arrived, I've been working in the yard. 

I love greenery and flowers! 

Have you all done your planting?  I hope to have some new dolls done soon.  Until then, take care and many blessings to all.

Hugs,



Some new dolls...

How about a little sunshine in your part of the world - this is Ms. Sunshine

 

 

 Or how about just a little raggedy annie?

Two new dolls in my Etsy shop - have a wonderful weekend!

 

 

Sweet hugs,

 

 

The world of dolls....

 Working on some dolls this fine spring day in Texas.  This little cutie with the ocean blue and white poka dot dress is named Shelby.  Shelby is now in my Etsy shop.  This color is so beautiful.  I'm not sure the camera captured the vivid color.  It might pass for a teal color too.

 This little pink delight is a special custom order.  It is for a little girl whose name is Brenna.  Seems like Brenna loves pink, pink, pink.  Love making little girls happy!

Here's wishing everyone has a wonderful week - I hope to be back soon with some more dollies!

Shelby has sold - thank you! 

Sweet hugs,
