A Wonderful Day For Finishing Projects

Yes, a wonderful day indeed.  First day of Autumn and a day off from work helped me get some projects done for the show in Nov.  First up was finishing two dolls.  Actually, they aren't quite finished yet.  I still want to add a Christmas pillow or a wreath or maybe a teddy bear.  Something will come to mind - the main thing is they are almost done.  Just have to get busy and make about ten more!!


The stars below are from a pattern by My Primitive Saltbox I just bought through Etsy.  They are so easy and really look much pretty in person.  I made six real quick and thinking about making a dozen more.  They are made of tea-stained Warm n Natural batting and then I sprinkled mica flakes with an adhesive spray.  They are ornies for a bowl, but I think I'll add string to the stars for hanging on a tree or a cabinet door knob.
I also finished those snow pillows I posted earlier and I'm finalizing my new design for a Christmas stitched e-pattern that hopefully will be posted in Etsy by mid week.  Busy, busy, busy, but so enjoying the cooler weather that certainly helps to get in the mood for crafting -  looks like it did for me!  Have a great weekend and Happy Fall Season to all!

Hugs,

Happy Monday and Say Hello to Maddie

Happy Monday! It is for me since I'm a federal employee I get President's Day off! Yea! That gives me time to work on some dolls. And speaking of dolls - just finished this special little doll for a precious little baby. Her mommy is my niece, Lisa, and this is her first little girl. Lisa wanted something in purple so the perfect fabric in my stash was none other than some purple with white stars. Yes, stars for "a star is born"! I'll have her ready to be shipped out to California soon, but I have to work on something for her big brother (3 yr old Ethan). I think Ethan would probably like a monster! I'll have to sew him a stuffed monster. I think he'll like that.

Hope everyone is having a nice day. For those who are still living with snow - stay warm!

Hugs,
