You need some old doilies angels

(this is Cherry Hill-Telegraph area)

These girls are made from small dresser scarves. You wouldn't think you could get so much from a small rectangle but it somehow stretches to fit the need. I used old quilt hearts and some of my buttons to trim. Embroidery thread hair is easy and different and I think blends with the old stuff. I hope they are happy with their dresses.

Flowers from Vivianos

Saturday we did a florist shop hop. We added a visit to Christine's bakery in Shelby Township. This is a shortbread cookie that thinks it's a candy corn.

A Happy Friday

Today, the big ol' Amtrak will bring Kynda to visit us, we are going to have so much fun! The sun is shining and I am making soup (and dessert).

Little angel got put together last night at almost midnight, I went downstairs to feed my fish and she was calling to me. I never use moss hair but it was what she wanted, and her sign as well. Have a good weekend everyone!

Sunny Day Snowman

A Moonchild's Primitives pattern (she's from Paducah), I used some nice flannel shared with me by Barb and eyes are hand-dyed buttons from the quilt shop, Sew-What in Wyandotte. The trees are my extra idea and I love trim of coffee-dyed warm and natural.
Some rusty wire and dragon vine hold a little star and tag that I made.

I hope the sun is shining on you today.

Two Santas

This Santa is made from a pattern by Marie Campbell, I bought this pattern a long time ago and have searched many times for Marie, hoping to find her and her nice patterns. I think I will try again today. I love making him.


This one is a pattern by Country Cupboard. If you make dolls I am sure you are familiar with them. He actually should be an Uncle Sam but I changed his hat, either way he is easy to make and always turns out sassy.

Just look at her!

Hurry over to www.wilmaswimzees.blogspot.com to see this cute little giveaway. I love her little face.
