New Pattern, Finally

This is Lucy Annie and Chicken. I made two of them so far, each with different color dress. She is a chunky 28" doll with painted chicken, aprox 7". Chicken is painted and cinnamon coated. Annie face is hand stitched, stripe painted legs, doll is stained, grunged, all primmed up and ready to go. She is available as a finished doll but extremely limited number can be made with the purina feed sack bottom dress featured in above photo. This fabric has not been available on the market for years now and I have a very limited amount of it. However I can make her dress from any other color. Finished doll is $49.95 ppd in USA.

Lucy Annie and Chicken, my new pattern, finally finished her up today. The e-pattern is available for $6.00, Mailed version is available for $8.50. Finished doll $49.95. Paypal buttons are on side bar at right if you wish to purchase doll or pattern. Thank you!

My precious Kitty, Miley.

It is very wet and rainy. I have been sitting in the living room on the couch with my furry doggies and just listening to the rain fall and starring at my Christmas decorations. It is peaceful. Have the TV on mute and waiting for the College FootBall game to start. What a nice quiet, peaceful and beautiful December evening. Can't remember the last time I sat alone and just listened to the rain fall and not feel stressed or anything, just peaceful. Just a beautiful and unusual feeling December night.

Thank You Jesus!

My dear son in law, Michael.. (Celena's husband)...., arrived back in the states today to his home base in Port Hueneme California, he has been in Afganistn for the past 8 months. Michael will be here at my house in less than a week so he and Celena wil be spending ThanksGiving with me. We are very excited and so glad he is back in the homeland. It will be so hard for me when they leave to go back to California , I will miss them and especially my baby girl soo much. But glad for her that her hubby is home and she is happy!

Several people asked about printing the feedsack. This is an image from ewenmeprintables. I included the directions for printing onto fabric in the pattern. You can order pre cut freezer paper sheets to do this or just use wax paper from the local store. Iron the shiny side of freezer paper to dyed fabric, trace off a regualr size sheet of printer paper on back of freeser sheet, cut out to size of your piece of printer paper that you just traced (8.5x11), run through printer making sure it is free of strings hanging and flattened. Some printers are fussy about taking it, use one at a time, make sure you do this fabric side up or how ever your printer takes it so it will be ready to print on fabric side. All you are doing is giving the fabric enough body to go through your printer.

Visiting Sandy Yesterday

Got to stop and see Sandy for most of the day yesterday, came on home late in the afternoon. We got to go to a new Thrift Shop and do a few things while I was there, had a great time. saw her new pattern doll models and they are wonderful!!! Her pics just do not do her items justice, they look amazing! I saw the new Annie with the frog, her new pattern, and it is great! Here is my grandson enjoying my box of stuffing, he loves the way it feels. Dustin sat in it the whole time he watched his favorite Disney show.
