"I've had enough" Walker the cat

It is still cold but the sun is shining and Walker escaped outside this morning, even before he had his breakfast.  I can't get him to come inside so maybe he knows something we don't. (Or maybe he heard the discussion we had about Rebecca bringing home a hamster from UM ).  That should be interesting.

I have a new printer (Yea!) that Jordan installed.  It is so nice to have a tec in the family.

Here's a doll too, it's a Crow's Roost pattern called "Doris".  Does she need more hair, or is it just that she needs ears?  I made her dress from a cute apron we found in an antique store. Also, I didn't do the sewed-on eyelids, somehow when I do that, my dolls have an evil look.   I hope you have some of this nice sunshine today.

Today is Kynda's birthday, here she is on her beautiful blue bike from Mark. You may have already seen it on her blog but I wanted it to be on mine too.  Happy Birthday Kynda, we love you so much!

March First...

I hope you are enjoying my  posts of the Garden City Garden Club 2014 Calendar Fund Raiser.
The March gentleman is a member of the Southern Michigan Daylily Society and he has over 300 varieties of daylilies in his garden.  We have been there to see them, ( he was fully clothed). 

It says "Time to remove all dead plant material, turn the soil, mulch and get ready to plant."
LOL, what about the foot of snow, where does it go?

First Sign of Spring..

THE FARM is open!  Petersburg, Illinois tomorrow.  I wish we could go, I would buy the yellow chicken in the green box!

First local craft show is tomorrow too at Lutheran High West, Westland, Michigan.   The weather is letting up a bit for Saturday.

"They" are saying it will be mid-March before the cold goes away.  Guess I won't be planting my peas on St. Patrick's Day.  Watch tomorrow's post for our March gardener calendar girl!  Happy day everyone.

Renee design by Chestnut Junction

 I liked her ears and dress, neck not so much, couldn't get it right so I gave her a collar.
These are for Pj, they received their caps last night during The Voice!  Does anyone like The Voice or do I  just like Blake Shelton?

A very cold week in Michigan but the sun is shining this morning and Walker really is anxious to go outside, me too.

A Pattern by Moonlit Stitch

This is a little rabbit I made from a freebie pattern by Lisa at Moonlit Stitch.  Her pattern shows it in a cute little print dress but I manipulated my dress from a doily.  You could make her today.  Why not?

Sewing Doll

Kynda just sent me a picture from Piece and Applique.  Maybe she could send her to me.  She promises to get a picture of her face next time.  Maybe some of her work as well.
