Dolls and new treasures from a dear friend

I finished up some of those naked dolls that I showed in this post.

Five of them are on there way to their new home and I listed the remaining two on ETSY
I am working on the other dolls and almost have them finished, hope to post pictures soon.
I finally have all my Christmas decorations down. I was able to do that yesterday between all my running. Monday and Tues are the days I have a little extra time.  I even took down my snowmen this year. I usually leave them up till Feb but my heart is not into it this year.  Maybe next year.
I wanted to show you all what a dear family friend gave me the other day.   I love the Amish couple...

 And this little lantern is my favorite.  It only stands 3 inches tall.   It  use to hold hand lotion many years ago.

Well I am off to work on those dolls before I have to leave for awhile.  Take Care

Listed dolls on Etsy tonight

Just some dolls that I listed on Etsy tonight.

New things to share

The weather here has been so nice, it has been hard to stay indoors and sew. But I have been and I listed a few things today on Etsy.
I did up a thanksgiving raggedy Ann..

Some primitive wall hangings/ or wreath banners....

And a new Santa Star ornie/bowl filler that I sewed up with this red swirl flannel that I found in my fabric cupboard.

Oh how I love to go into that cupboard and look threw my stash. I bet some of you know exactly what I mean.  :)
I have some more new Annie's sewn up. I did them in Christmas/winter prints. It is  a new patten that I have never done before and I had fun sewing them up.  Hope to list and share those with you tomorrow.
Until then I hope your having a good start to your week.

A basket of dolls

Well, I finished those dolls that I mention back in this post. It's funny how when you work on them, you love the one your working on and then the next one and next one.

Some of the dolls have button eyes and the other's are painted on. I did some with winter dresses and other's everyday. Now they are ready to go to new homes. These are some snowmen that I finished up. The snowman face I am thinking about doing a wreath with it but not sure yet. There are gingerbread men in the works, more snowmen, some angels and more surprise's on the sewing table. I listed the santa ornies that I posted about here. You can find them on Etsy ,or Ebay. I am working on a giveaway also ,so watch for that coming up soon. Till next time
