Holly and Berries

Had a wonderful weekend with my 2-1/2 year old grandson, Dominic ~

Grammy and Pops bought him a

Batman tricycle for Christmas

(had to give it to him early of course!)

he sat on that bike, oops I mean "car" most of the weekend

just playing with all the sound buttons ~

still has to learn to push those peddles though

Holly and Berries ~

Annie's face shows some coffee stains ~

sorry, this was not my best job of staining ~

I like when you do not see any coffee stains just darkened muslin ~

I have no idea why I did not fix her but it is too late now ~

she holds a tin star I decorated with

holly, berries and some sweet annie

Annie is dressed in one of my all time favorite

Christmas fabrics ~

unfortunately this was the last in my stash

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

God bless

and thanks for visiting.

Prim Santa and Annie

Up on Ebay this coming Friday will be

Prim Santa and his Annie ~

Santa's hair and beard is lambs wool ~

he has little stitched eyes ~

and his hat was made from an old cutter quilt

with a rusty bell on the tip

Annie wears a homespun dress with a sprig of

sweet annie in her heart pocket ~

her hair was made from Burly spun wool

Everyone loves gingerbread men and gingerbread houses ~

Annie is giving gingerbread wishes and kisses to all!

Wishing all a wonderful week ahead.

Thanks for visiting

God bless!

Free Standing Christmas Annie

I finally finished my free standing Annie ~

her white felt jacket is removable with

hand stitched poinsettia and holly ~ the berries are tiny red beads ~

she was hanging naked on my factory wall for months

so I am thrilled she is finally dressed and ready for Ebay ~

and I am pretty sure I don't want to make another

but it is fun to try something different

Ahhh ~ back to my normal Annies

Fa-La-La

comes with a little tree with a tiny cardinal

and Deck the Halls sheet music

I am getting all excited about Christmas ~

what a great time of rejoicing the birth of Jesus

thanks for visiting ~ have a great week

God bless.

Merry Mouse

Occasionally I get the urge to create something different than Annies
so please meet Merry Mouse ~
she has little pointed feet with rhinestone buttons
~ a ruffled split dress with her loons peeking out ~
also a small basket of Sweet Annie
I really enjoyed creating her but my favorites are still my Annie dolls

Christmas Poinsettia Toile Annie ~
has a tiny bear in her stocking ~
her dress has a tuck and small ivory eyelet lace along the hem

This is a little 12 inch Annie sitting on two candy cane boxes ~
I don't make this size often but she seemed perfect for the boxes

Finally we are having beautiful fall weather ~
I love autumn with the changing leaves ~
Enjoy your week
Thanks for visiting
God bless.
