Sleigh Bells Ring

only had time for one new Annie this weekend

worked on an Annie order 

but also

had a family reunion on Saturday

and Sunday walked a 5K 

for pancreatic cancer with my cousins

~

 Sleigh Bells Ring 

is a new Annie 

with a hand stitched apron

~

she will be up on Ebay sometime this week

~

I tried posting on Etsy for awhile

but love the auction of Ebay

this is always a very busy time of year for me

and I have no idea why????

hope to have at least one new Annie next week

~

thank you all for visiting

may you have an amazing blessed week ahead

God bless!

A Teddy Bear & Bunny Christmas

working on Christmas Annies

my favorite time of year ~ celebrating Christ's birth ~ 

the only reason for the season

one has a bunny made using a Sweet Meadows Farm pattern

and

the other is a TY bear I changed and 

dressed with a crocheted collar and bow

wish I had more time to write but my real world job 

is keeping me way too busy

~

love my weekends when I play with my Annie dolls!

Thanks for visiting ~ have a wonderful week

God bless   :)

A Star for Annie

I saw a similar prim star and 

just had to make an Annie with her own star

~

little Annie has no body though

just her head sewed to her star :/

 ~

this Annie has been hanging bald 

on my "factory" wall for awhile  

 finally decided to give her and little Annie hair 

~

their dresses have a toile print of little girls playing 

there is even a doll carriage 

so naturally little Annie had to be in one too

~

all little girls cherish their dolls

so of course she had to be "Cherish"

Cherish is up on Ebay until Sunday evening

~

thank you all for visiting

hope you are enjoying the beautiful autumn weather

:)

God bless. 

Happy Labor Day Weekend!

Wishing everyone a safe, happy holiday weekend 

~

I have finally opened a shop on Etsy ~

been asked by customers to set a price

so Etsy seemed right at this time

~

always loved the auction part of Ebay

never knowing what your Annie would sell for but....

times change

~

I will still try to have an Annie listed on both

"try" is the right word because

today I start watching my two beautiful grandchildren

every other weekend while there mama is at work

exhaustion yet joy here I come!

~

one of my Annies finished this week is a custom order

she is similar to a previous Annie only a few inches longer

hope she likes her?!

Count Your Blessings

her apron was made from an old linen napkin

hand stitched "Count Your Blessings" and a basket 

added a tuck with cluny lace trim on her dress 

~

thinking of putting her up on Ebay this weekend :/

Thanks for visiting

hope to be back next week

God bless!

Scarecrows and Gingerbread Men

~ two new Annies ~ 

Scarecrow Crossings 

this little Annie is 15 inches long and comes with

her scarecrow on a stick

and another hand stitched on her apron

Gingerbread Blessings

Annie comes with a heart ornament 

and a 3-1/2 inchgingerbread man

~

I am not sure where or when I will be listing these two  :/

~

life has been extremely busy lately

I can 't seem to get enough time for my Annies

and it is very frustrating ~ they are my anti-stress therapy

wishing all a fabulous week

Thanks for visiting again!

God bless.

Witch Annie & Potion Bags

Happy almost weekend!

posting a little early

Monday I will have a procedure to remove a 

small spot of skin cancer on my back

and since I have two Annies finished

I might as well post them

found this purple and black goblin fabric and had to make an Annie witch

added some potion bags at her waist

used roving for her hair just to try something different

hope you all like her

she will be up on Ebay Sunday evening

Harvest Annie 

is in autumn colors

her pocket was made from a piece of vintage linen

I stitched a harvest annie and added a sprig of sweet annie

Wishing all a wonderful weekend ~

thank you all for visiting

God bless!

Prim ♥ Blessings

 just returned from 5 days at the shore

what an exhausting yet wonderful time spent with my grandchildren

our 3 year old grandson experienced rides for the first time

his excitement was priceless going from ride to ride

he was in toddler heaven!

Prim ♥ Blessings is a new Annie

her heart ornie has vintage buttons and an angel charm

Bountiful Blessings

this fabric is reminiscent of the vintage fruit decor from the 50's that I love

she comes with a pear pin cushion

hope you all are enjoying your summer and the Olympics

thank you for visiting

have a great week

and 

God bless.
