I can always tell





when my things appeal to my youngest grandaughter I find them in her room hoho I luv it-- Kids are my best critics..Now I have to make a polar bear as the kids fell in love with this bear-- when they went to Atlanta with their mom and if my plate isnt full enough We have umpteen birthdays in NOVEMBER!!!!

OMG



I actually worked on a doll til I finished her!! I love fall colors -- so maybe all the beautiful colored fat quarters inspired me??? OOps I forgot to show all the lil buttons I sewed on her..but I love the ornament she is holding..I have a request for a winter fairy like the red fiary oh my glad they dont want a duplicate!!!!!!!!

dont know why




I cant seem to finish this lil red fairy I guess when I worry too much about the outcome!?!? I start to hesitate?? Anyway-- I took a break and pulled out a UFO..Of course I was going to take step by step pixs but welllll I did take a few..The doll's face was already peciled in so allI did was pull out my water color pecils and gave her dome color the I did a lil needle sculpting and I put on rust suade yarn for hair I love faces and on to the legs I loved the knee bead used so I went thru my fat quarters and found almost a match !! The I threw my fat quarter on the table and started her costume I like my legs a lil longer that this doll so I filled in the ankle which I covered and added a foot and made some shoes I was on a roll!!!
