Thrift Store Junk
Thrift Store goodies. I wanted to add a little yellow to my kitchen decor, an apron, a plate, and rosebud salt and pepper shakers should do the trick. ( well, maybe I need a few more things, but its a start)
pincushion doll
My Mom had a treasure trove of doll heads and a couple of pairs of legs, they were unpainted and she had never gotten around to making them into pincushion dolls. Last Sun. she gave them to me and I have hadso much FUN, painting, and stuffing and dressing these dolls. I still have a few more to do , but here are the ones that I have competed so far. They are totally hand sewn, because I love to craft in the evening while watching TV.
stuffed dolls
I have been busy, busy, busy! I try to keep busy in the winter months, The weather outside keeps me indoors and I quickly get bored with just cooking and cleaning. So to keep busy I get sewing and crafting. I would still rather be at the beach, but my projects help keep me sane. (and that is debatable) I hope you enjoy seeing what I have been up to.
Large, med. and small dolls, they all have flat bottoms so they can stand up, the smallest dolls are filled with lavender, so that they may be tucked into a drawer to keep it smelling fresh. Their happy little faces make me smile.
