The Factory

I recently had a request to see my sewing room, "the factory." I just cleaned and reorganized it. This was my daughter's room for over twenty years. Figured I better take some pics before it gets messed up again. Actually, it kinda looks messy already. LOL

Look for my puppy, Rosie, sleeping in her bed under my sewing table. She lays there and snores while I sew. She is such a good girl. Rosie is a yorkie and 6 years old, not really a puppy. She weighs all of 7 pounds. I love her dearly.

New Annies

Here are two new Annies going up on Ebay this week. For Noah Ark's Annie I crocheted her dove in the amigurumi style. Amigurmi is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals. For Pink Teddy Annie, I sewed her teddy bear using an old sweater.



During the holidays I reorganized my sewing room. My family calls it the "factory". I added more shelves so all my fabric is organized by color and/or themes. Now I am looking forward to creating new Annies in 2010. :)

My grandson, Dominic, celebrated his first Christmas. I think he is adorable. Here he is surrounded by all his presents.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Poor little guy was sleeping and had no idea what was going on, but he didn't cry.

Fun Vacation

Just returned from an amazing time with my family...rode through the Everglades and my cousin held an alligator! Now it's time to get back to work at the university and making some Annies at home. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Off to Florida

I'm off to Florida for six fun filled days with my two sisters and cousin....playing pinochle, hunting alligators...can't wait! So thankful for this vacation!

So Much to Be Thankful For!

I have so much to be thankful for this year.God has blessed us with a grandson, our daughter is in love with a wonderful man and my mother-in-law, who has Alzheimer's, was able to enjoy Thanksgiving with us and her great- grandson.

Just finished two new Annies and listed one on Ebay.

I will be away on vacation until December 7.

Wishing all a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving.

Holidays

Most of all I wish everyone a very happy and filling Thanksgiving.

Until mid December I will not be listing any Annies on E-Bay. I am extremely grateful to be on vacation in sunny Florida enjoying time spent with my sisters and cousin playing pinochle and checking out alligators.

My plans when I return are to work on new patterns for my 15 inch Annie and possibly my Threesome. Hopefully they will be on E-bay in January along with some new Annies.

I want to thank all my buyers, family and friends for their support this past year. Looking forward to another year creating Annies.

Thank you and God bless.
