Finally Ready For My Shop Update

I finally finished everything that I can get done right now for my shop. I have more in the works but I'm not going to stress myself out more than I need to. The 2 challenges I did recently really took massive amounts of time away from making these dolls. But hey choices..anyway glad I did do them. My listings with go live either tonight or Saturday morning but I thought I'd show here on my blog what I'm offering since a few people asked to see ahead of time.

 These 3 were made last year before I really figured out what I wanted do do with this pattern I designed. I think they are kind of adorable and I hope they find good homes.

Goldylocks.

Hansel and Gretel. These two started my fairy tale doll craze. I'm selling these 2 as a set.

Red and Wolfie. Selling these two as a set. Some friends said I should offer singles of these too so I made another set to sell as singles that are slightly different.

Single Red Riding hood.

Single Wolfie. Changed his head and made lederhosen.

Cat Witch is being listed too.

New Dolls Finished AND Listed In My Etsy Shop!

April was a crappy month but May is slowly turning out better so far. I completely finished 2 new dolls! 2 more have their bodies done but need clothes.

These 2 cuties are actually listed in my esty shop right now! Will they sell? Who knows? We'll see!

After I made Ann I had to make Andy. He was designed and sewn in the last 3 days. Ann has a vintage Ann face embroidered on her apron. Both dolls have embroidered face, hair and clothing details.

Worktable Wednesday and WIPS.

Oh wow two posts in the same week! Anyway here's what's on my worktable today.

I love both of these girls! I have mad love for Raggedy Anne and Pumpkin headed dolls.

Tuesday Treasures

Did you ever have that one special toy that was so dear to your heart that you never let it go? Well I do she's my Raggedy Ann doll. I'm not entirely sure why I love this doll so much but from the moment I received her at Christmas 1970 she's been my constant companion.

She's now a very well loved treasure of mine. She has survived my open heart surgery at age 5, a big city to wide open suburbs move, my parents divorce and the struggles that produced, my growing up, college, my marriage, my children and my divorce. Through it all and at the ripe age of 40 she's my oldest and dearest friend.

What very special doll or toy do you have? I'd love to hear about it and any memories you'd like to share.
