I am loving birthdays

This is an oil painting by my little sister Ruth.
I am certain I will never get tired of looking at it.
So much action and passion in the waves....
I love it.
happy birthday to me!




A very beautiful handcrafted spinning wheel is setting in my livingroom.
This is a gift from my *oh so* talented sister Linda. 
 I have practiced for quite a long time today but am still not confident enough to put
any wool in it yet!
yep!  happy birthday to me!
Here's a big thank you shout out to two very kind sisters that I love!

This is the backpack made up. This is the small size. Peter Got No Tail would fit nicely in this size because of his long thin legs. I would definitely recommend, however, that for our regular dolls we use the large size. Not a difficult pattern, though, and it has lots of possibilities. Linda


well it worked up way more cuter than I thought it would. and can I just mention. the colors you chose are really cool. and how long did it take to make? and was easy?

Really fun. Please bring the pattern. I think I'm going to need to make some of these. Ruth

It took me just over 2 hours and was fairly simple. The pattern called for making the straps out of bias tape but I made them out of the corduroy so they would be wider and more comfortable. I will bring copies. Linda

Colored glass bottles




Had these bottles for some time.  Just located these cool labels
I think they turned out pretty neat.

More Quiet dolls


So fun to make..... am going to donate these to our serice
auction at church!

Quiet Doll


This design is great for church dolls.
I have a boy design and am working on it now.
If you want the pattern and design just email me and let me know.

ABBY AND HER EASTER BASKET

Here is Abby carrying her new basket and looking for flowers or Easter eggs to fill it up. A little starch should give it a little more body and since there is snow outside, a trip to Michael's should fill it with flowers. What do y'all think? Linda

How cute!  You were exactly right this is the perfect touch for a little girls easter outfit.  How long did it take you to make it?  And for heavens sake please tell me you wrote down the instrctions.  LOL

She is done

She is finished and i really like
the colors on this one.




If you want the pattern just go to:
pattern is there

Stephen King movie!
LOL
