God Bless America ~ Memorial Day

  a special thank you to all veterans this 
Memorial Day weekend
~
people seem to be leaving their blogs for Facebook
just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on this
~

I wasn't going to stitch God Bless America on
 Annie's hang tag
afraid it might affect her sale on Ebay
but I am glad I changed my mind
~
 we all really do need to pray for
God's blessing on America and the world
so this little raggedy is
 "God Bless America" Annie!
 

Summer Blessings Annie
 comes with her own 4 inch doll
and her gown was made from a piece of
Annie's vintage apron
thanks for visiting again
~
be safe and God bless

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!

Cherish Annie ~ Butterfly dress

this week's Annie is Cherish
I like to try different dress styles so
for this Annie I sewed her dress skirt in three pieces
 main skirt ~ cotton lace trim ~ bottom piece
making the lace trim see through
~
thank you all for visiting again
wishing all an amazing week
God bless!
