CUSTOMER FEEDBACK!


She is absolutely perfect! She is even better than the pictures, and I didn't think that was possible. I've added a picture of Lorinda sitting in her new wardrobe box, which is actually the same box that she was sent to me in. Just thought you might want to see it. She is an absolutely beautiful doll and it was a pleasure to do business with you. I would definitely do business with you again!

this is our dear Lorinda at her new home....
She looks Marvelous. I am so happy she is there
and even happier that she is loved so much.
Thank you Janet so much for the kind words

Wonderful!!! Marvelous! Nice to hear! Ruth

Been a very busy day


these are so fun to make and so easy.
Lots going on today and oh my
heck I got more phone calls today than I have had
for months. Was wonderful
to know so many people care about me.

I kept reading seat wins, seat wins...... seat wins... then I got it! SEA TWINS!! Just the blonde coming out. HA! Love these Peggy! Ruth

Gettin totes filled up


Yep, Looks like this tote is full.
Good think Linda has more.
We are gonna have so much fun!

These are the grannies I have made so far. Have been making one a day.
I think it will be pretty

Love the box of bodies!!!!!!! Ha! You'll have to teach me Granny Squares also! Can hardly wait for you to get here. Ruth

This is going to be a really pretty afghan. The box of bodies is interesting. Hope we don't get stopped by the State Patrol and get asked "What's in the box?" I know what Peggy will say. LOL. Linda

ALRIGHT LADY....... STEP AWAY FROM THE TOTE!!!!!!

yep I can hear it now!

I found my sewing room!

Yesterday I had to clean my sewing room. It was really scarey!!! So today I got to sew. Here are a few creations. This is the first jumper and was made to work out the bugs in a new pattern.

Ruth, I really like this little blue dress..... the ribbon is just the right touch. Lindas blue sweater will make the outfit perfect.


I love this cute sweater and hat from Linda. Wish these were dressed on a girl doll and posted for Valentines day!

perfect for Valentines Day


This is the 2nd dress from the new pattern and I needed the pattern altered so I had to sew one more dress to test the pattern. It fits perfectly. Next I will try a lighter colored fabric (perhaps a seersucker ?) and think it will be perfect!

I think Lolly will be very cute in this green dress.

One more frilly dress. Blue bow is for the hair.

Oh my Ruthie! You are so talented. How long do these dresses take you to make?
I love them all! Love Alyce


Oh me too, i love them...... all of them....... peg

They are beautiful. I can hardly wait to come and dress them all. Linda

Linda's Blue Sweater




                                                          OK, what do y'all think?

AAAAhhhhhheeeeemmmmmm........ you know of course this doll has on no undies!  LOL..... Do you need me to send ya some?    LOL  
                                                      ABSOLUTELY  Beautiful SWEATER Sis.......

I love this! I have a blue hat from Mom that I think will go with this if the yarns work together. Amazing to me that you can do this. Love it! Ruth

I don't think anyone loves this more than me!   Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!   Wow Linda!  Love, Alyce

Me in the Morning!


I've seen this hair in the mirror!


Took a break from making clothes and decided to try making a doll. She's about 8 inches. Probably will only be one of a kind, but I may have to make them for the grand-daughters for church. We'll see.

She is really something Ruth. She pretty well sums up how I'm feeling right now. Even feel like my undies are hanging lower than my apron. Linda


Oh boy is she cute!   I love her hair and her clothes and her size!   You three are inspiring me to get down into my sewing room.   BTW - did I say how much I love her hair?  
I think she would sell Ruth,  you should make a variety of different colors for people to choose from.   I love that her feet are striped, then you don't have to put shoes on her!  Love, Alyce







More dresses


Ho Down anyone? Here's your tule petticoat Peggy!


Love this sweater Linda sent. Works well with this dress, but I may make a straight skirt and try that with it also. I will get the yarn for the hat to mom.

Ruth, these are so cute. The sweater looks really good with this pink and brown dress. It will be really cute with brown shoes. I'm sure Peggy has some made up. I've been working on a blue sweater and should have it finished later tonight. (Had to take a break from figuring out patterns. My brain was on overload.) Anyway this yarn is self-striping so I think it will be cute. Not sure what you can come up with to go with it. It is kind of boy-type sweater I think. Next project, more shoes???? or shall I try tackling Han's hat again? Linda

Mercy Dolls

These dolls are *Compassion Dolls*

They are created to invoke mercy

and good will to those that
create and share them.
And Comfort and peacefulness
in those that recieve them.


Doll Case



Found this suitcase at Tuesday Morning on Wednesday afternoon. LOL. Just fits. What do you think?

I love this case. Yep we can be very impressive using this! Way to go Ruthie. Just needs a little tissue paper and a few business cards thrown in and this baby is ready to go. Very cute.

I love this case. It really takes the dolls to a whole new level. How much do they cost? Maybe down the road we could think about contacting whoever makes these and see if we can buy a bunch at wholesale prices and make it a whole package deal. Linda

Dress for Ethnic doll



i think this pair of sandals turned out way alot better!


Did you string the necklace? and what about the belt?so good
Found the beads and strung them on elastic thread. The belt is a stretchy headband with a button sewn on, then just wrapped around the doll and hooked over the button.


Tom said he thought this dress looked Native American.... Not sure, but probably on one of the dark skinned dolls. Had to try the shoes again. Should I make another Mu Mu dress like for the Elliea Doll out of the rest of the blue hawaiian print you sent Linda? Beautiful fabric and that doll turned out so cute

You are correct this will love very good on against a dark skin. can't wait until we all get there. we are gonna have so much fun playing dolls!.

I really like this too, but I do think it will look better on a dark skinned doll. Go ahead and use the blue hawaiian print if there is enough. If we need more, I'm sure I can get Amy to do a scouting trip for us at the shop I got this at in Honolulu. Linda

Spring Dress


Notice the brain squeezer! Mom's working on a bunch for us! This is just out of an elastic head band.
Bring on the brain squeezers! we need loads of these! Way to go Idaho

This outfit will probably need white shoes, mary janes or other, maybe a white purse or basket with flowers. So far haven't found a small enough basket. First pair of pantaloons! May work for Annabelle or Lolly or Genny or.......any of the dolls with long hair. Linda, a white sweater would be cute with this I think.

I think Anabelle will look very cute in this. Very....... ok, so I made 2 dolls yesterday and now I am behind again! ruth...... what is going on? It would appear that this is really getting alot easier for you. Doesn't look like you are struggling so hard with these creations. I approve! Very nice work. I do hope you are putting our name tags on each article. I would hate for your creations to all of a sudden show up on another website somewhere!
You make me very proud!!!!!!!!!

This is a beautiful dress and you are right. A white sweater will be perfect. I have finished 2 pairs of black Mary Jane's. Do you want them now or shall I wait and bring them?
