Vintage Baby Shoe Pin Cushion

thinking of Mother's Day

with "Always & Forever"

if you still have your mom

give her a big hug and an "I love you"

still missing my mom after almost 5 years

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
