Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!

Peggy these new dolls are absolutely perfect. You are right about the hair I think. Can you believe all that has happened with these dolls in the last two months? Makes me wonder what will happen in the next two months.

Love you all. Linda

Leisel

i have named her Leisel.

She was created in the spirit of Christmas excitememt!

Her shawl

the shawl was so quick and simple.  I think some of the 16"dolls need some of these too.

IT IS FINALLY CHRISTMAS AT GEPETTA'S

I GOT A TREE!

I guess I didn't realize how great an effect a christmas tree can have on a person

I found a 4 foot tree at Michaels today for $19.99 and I brought it home and

ta da....... it is finally really christmas at my house!

I am so excited I can hardly stand it.!!!!!!

I have no ornaments but I do have loads of presents from all my family that love me dearly!

I am surrounded by My Heavenly Father's Blessings.

Now......

The next thing I want to share......

The new 8" doll has mohair, hair.  We have success.  It actually looks like hair and not yarn

I believe this is the appearance we want for all future dolls.

I am going to crochet a green shawl for her and hem her skirt and then she will be complete.

I Love you all and am so Happy I carry the Nyberg name!

I love you Linda

I love you Ruth

I love you Alyce

I love you Mike

I love you MOM

I love you DAD

Happy Birthday Mom!!! Be thinking about where you would like to go to dinner! Love you so much! Ruth

Here are our 2 new girls. The first picture Alexis Marie Sutton born Dec. 13th. The second is Lindsey Marie Sutton born Dec. 20th. Babies, babies everywhere! Feels like Christmas! Hope all goes well for Taylor Alyce. We are waiting for her next! Love you all. Ruth

Grandpa pioneer

                                              gettin ready to load up the wagon and head west!

(guess he aught to dust it off first.  Looks like it has been in the barn for a long time!)

LOL

Is he 8 inches? Might need to make a cowboy hat to keep the sun off! He's Dandy! Ruth
ya.  he is 8" tall.  I couldn't figure out how to make a tam style hat.  Not too mention a cowboy hat fer hevens sake.  LOL  You are so funny!   LOL........ I can send his head measurments to you if you would like to do that honor!

This & that

Oh boy is he cute!   So fun.   Love him Mom!    Alyce
(And look at you - posting photos on the blog.   Woo Hoo,  You're a blogger now!)
Oh MOM how many yo yos did this little guy take.  and for heavens sake are you fingers sore to the bone?   He is really cute.  YOur great grand is gonna love him!
and the angels are really cute theere.  Do they move and float around in the air movement ?
Now we know where we all got our desire to create!

New knitted jumper

This is the new jumper that I knitted. It doesn't look so good without a blouse, hat and shoes. Think I have enough yarn left for a hat and maybe shoes. When I get those done, I will send it on to Ruth for the finishing touches and have her work her magic.

Alyce I hope you are feeling better and everything is OK with Taylor and the new baby.

Congratulations to Grandma Ruth. 3 grandbabies in one month. It's a record.

Love ya'll. Linda
Linda, this is soooooooooooooo  waldorf style.   way to go grandma!  I cant wait to see it with a cute little blouse and hat with a fabric flower on it.  Ruth mentioned an embroidered flower on the hem.  very cute. how long did it take?

I love this jumper. I think some leggins would be cute with this and mary jane shoes and turtle neck. I'll see what I can do. Very Cute! Ruth


Very very cute!   I love the jumper.   Yes Linda, we are all doing well.  I finished my prednisone, was still sick.  Third day now on nasal and inhaler steroid and I think today I am beginning to get over it.  Yay!
Snow day today about a foot of snow.  It's beautiful.   I'm almost done with Halle and Reeses quilt tops. 
I've been really busy making a king size quilt for Ali.   I took photos of her with all of us from past years and transfered them to fabric then pieced them into a quilt top.   It's at the quilters today and will be done by Christmas.   Last friday Taylor was dialated to a 4 but zero effaced and Abbe was still high. 
Steve and Taylor say she isn't allowed to come out until after the 25th.   We'll see about that!
Ken and the Kids, Kenny, Karen and Sami's friend are all headed to Las Vegas today for a football game (as long as the roads are clear).   They are coming back thursday night.    Then, - Christmas EVE!
Love to all of you,   hope all is well with everyone.   I sure miss you!   Alyce

Sadie Doll

Sadie, the last doll is dressed for Christmas. Seemed fitting that she needed a red dress and jacket. I gave up on black shoes... at this time. Next the wrappings begin! Thanks Peggy for making these wonderful dolls! I can hardly wait until Christmas and see the grandkids excitement! You've help us to have a very Merry Christmas!

traveling clothes

here she is in her traveling clothes.

pink felt dress with matching shoes.

she is practing setting pretty for christmas morning!

here's Jordynn

This dancing dress is exactly the same color and style as Jordynn's first come home from the hospital after she could walk.

the nightgown oh this doll is my favorite!

My doll stand is not heavy enough to keep the doll from falling over.

she kept landing on her face during the shoot!

Thank you Linda I love these clothes. Jordynn will be a very happy girl on christmas morning.

I love the tutu. the gold color seems to set off the color of her hair

There are going to be some excited girls on Christmas morning with these dolls! How cute they all are! Thanks to each of you for sharing this with me! Love you all! Ruth

Welcome back

Alyce, We missed you!!! Sorry you are sick again. We breathe pretty good up here. You might have to think about that???

Let us know when you are ready to brainstorm again.

Love you all. Linda
