Kindness Blooms

Hubby and I were on vacation this week ~
a fix up the house vacation ~
we are still waiting for our granddaughter to be born :/
was really praying she would come this week when we were off from work
but God has His timing and that is the right timing for all things

Kindness Blooms Annie 
with a hand stitched apron and braids

Blessings Annie
with white cotton trim added to her butterfly print dress 
~ a heart pillow and a tiny stitched butterfly on her hang tag

hopefully I will have two more Annies to post next week ~
then my grandson will be moving into my "factory" for two weeks ~
and his mama and daddy and baby sister
will be staying in our small house

Thanking God for my family ~ they are a blessing from Him.
Thanks for visiting
God bless.

Summery Annies



I love this style dress for the summer
the dress border is pleated
~
her little bear was adapted from a Gingermelon pattern
her hang tag says "Hugs"


Smell the roses Annie
also comes with a little bear
but it is not hand made
I did add the rose and ribbon around his neck though :/


not sure when they will be up on Ebay
~
I've been trying to make extra Annies
for when my daughter and her family move in with us for a few weeks
~
I am pretty sure with my 3 year old grandson
and a new granddaughter
I will not be sewing much!

Thanks for visiting
God bless

Sweet Land of Liberty Annie


my last patriotic Annie for this year ~
on her apron I stitched "Sweet Land of Liberty"
and she holds an ornie of 3 stars 


who doesn't love hydrangea
I just had to buy this fabric and make an Annie
the border of her skirt has a wonderful saying of
 Live~Laugh~Love~Be Thankful

I am really not liking Photobucket with the new editing program
some of my photos look blurred when they are not ~
if anyone knows of a better photo host that has editing
please let me know

two more weeks and we will be blessed with a new grandchild
I can not wait to hold Camila!

Thanks for visiting
God Bless!

Sweet Annie

Sweet Annie has coppery hair and 
carries some "sweet annie" in a rusty tin pail
also added a yellow fabric flower to her pail

I just love sewing the dresses for my Annies


God Bless America
this Annie has a pinafore tied with rawhide at her sides
she also has a rusty bell on her hair bow
her charm says trust as that is my prayer
for America to trust in God again!

Thank you for visiting
God willing there will more Annies
next week!

Wishing all a wonderful week ~ God bless

Summer Parasol

This weekend we celebrated my grandson's third birthday
I can't believe he is 3 already
and his little sister is almost here!
God is so good.

 Summer Parasol
I am quite please with how the parasol turned out
and
that Annie can hold it and it stays up!


Fresh Berries is the second Annie ready for Ebay

I do have to say I miss the old Photobucket ~ 
still trying to get a hang of the new editing site  :(  
Thank you for visiting
Wishing all a blessed week
God bless!
