Ladybug Hugs

important things first!
~
happy 4th birthday to my first grandchild 
and only grandson, Dominic
~
now on to my lastest Annie
it still amazes me how my Annies develop
~
my husband likes to buy me minature rose bushes 
in these adorable little planters 
so I finally decided to start using them 
as pin cushions 
a dear friend sent me this little ladybug bear 
(thank you Madelyn)
found the perfect fabric in my too huge stash of quilting fabric
~
and here she is "Ladybug Hugs" Annie
wishing all an amazing week
enjoy the upcoming Memorial Day weekend
and please stay safe.
God bless

Raggedy Annie Angel

first off
I hope every mother had a wonderful Mother's Day
I am thanking God for the family he has given me
~
my wonderful husband and daughter
both work in the health care field and had to work
yesterday but that gave me the entire day
 in my factory making Annies!
~
I love adding trims to Annie's dresses
Butterfly Annie has a lovely eyelet trim I just bought

 ~
Raggedy Annie Angel came about 
because I had an 11 inch naked Annie 
in my factory for the past 3 months
just waiting to be special :)
thanks for visiting
~
enjoy your week being thankful in all things
God bless!

Vintage Baby Shoe Pin Cushion

inspiration for my newest Annie
is a pin cushion made from a vintage baby shoe
her beautiful apron also comes from vintage linen
thinking of Mother's Day
so I hand stitched her hang tag
with "Always & Forever"
she will be on Ebay this Sunday evening
~
if you still have your mom
give her a big hug and an "I love you"
still missing my mom after almost 5 years
~
thank you all for visiting
have a blessed week
~
God bless

Love Matters Annie with 4 inch Annie doll

"Love matters" Annie comes with her own 4 inch
raggedy ann doll and a heart ornie
~
her dress fabric I found at Joann's 
and just had to make an Annie
it cost a lot more but 
I love how she turned out
 ~
Blessings Annie comes with her purse
that can be used as a pin cushion
~
her hair was made with 
Paternayan wool rug yarn
~
this rug yarn is no longer made and 
I can only make a few more Annies with
my remaining stash of Paternayan rug yarn
~
I now use Halcyon wool rug yard
(which I do love)
but they do not have this yellow
~
thanks for visiting 
wishing all an amazing week
God Bless!
