I just love Summer, don't you? I love the warm days, the growing garden, the blooming flowers. But I tend to get distracted and kind of leave my crafts behind. But I have been working on some items, some old, some new.
This little teddy is so soft. He is made from a remnant of polar fleece. Any little one would love to cuddle with this little guy.
And these little guys were an experiment. They turned out pretty cute, so I will probably be making more:
And I have been working on pillows. These have been a great seller for me for over 15 years. They are great to work on while I'm watching tv.
These haven't been pressed or stuffed, but you get the idea. I press them and store them flat until show season begins and then I stuff them. Saves space over the summer.
That's all for now, my friends. I am working on some dolls, but still have quite a bit of hand work to finish on them. More later.

Busy....birthday....anniversary.....
Its been a couple of weeks since I last posted but I have been so busy! We had company from Illinois last weekend. My brother in law and family spent a few nights here and it was so great to see them all. We spent one day sightseeing in the mountains and one day celebrating hubby's birthday. We had a cook out and the family came over to celebrate. We also celebrated our 43rd wedding anniverary. What a busy week!
So now it is back to creating. I am working on two raggedies, a teddy bear, and some candy corns. Right now it is a pile of unfinished fabric. I did finish up some more angel ornies from dollar store flowers. These are pink, and I think any little girl would love to hang these on her tree!
I also made some "Santa Clotheslines". These are a great seller at my shows but are time consuming to do because they have quite a bit of hand stitching. I pack them in bags, unassembled, so that they don't tangle.
Well, I've finished my second cup of coffee so it is really time to get started on my to do list. More later....
