I am Siamese If You Please....

I know they are black cats....but the face really makes me think of a Siamese cat....
These are just about ready to go...just need whiskers and tails...they really are so primitive looking...maybe a little pumpkin with the set would really look like fall....I can't recall who this pattern is by...I don't have it with me....

Rev Up For Halloween

Here she sits next to Polly Anna frog patiently waiting for her clothes...she just seems kinda witchy to me...
so on that note I think a hat would be appropriate...long and pointed...maybe in black...
oh she agrees...I can see the sparkle in her eyes just thinking about it...

she is just the perfect shade of pumpkin orange...&...

SuNfloWer KiTty..a neW PatTerN MaYbE

Here is a new little kitty doll I am working on....Maybe it could be a new pattern...Not sure how to go about turning these into patterns...will have to research when I have some time...

She is only about 11"....maybe her legs could be a little longer...but all in all she is a cutie...

Not much else going on...trying to sew when I can....Babysitting three grandies...cooking three meals a day...washing, housecleaning...you girls know the routine...trying to squeeze the sewing into all that...it's a job in itself....

When does school start again??...

WIP

This truly is a work in progress...It's going to be a cute little giraffe...with antenna and spots and a tail....I hope it looks like it's supposed too...since this is a new pattern (Barenliebe-Teddys) and quite different from the normal primitive things I make.....

The Pattern Blurb

Most of the items I create are from my own original designs...occassionally I use a pattern purchased from another designer....I always try to give the designer credit...if it has been omitted because I rushed or had brain fade...please let me know....sometimes it will be in a previous post...if you come across a pattern used and nowhere has the designer been given credit...I will go back and post the designer's name....
