Silly Silly Bo Billy....lol




I had a sewing day with my sister and these goofy things are what I made....think Stella will like them??? they are kind of addicting to make...
they were fun because I used wool for the dolls and old sweaters for the tops....think I may stick a few in my etsy shop...the one I opened 3 years ago and have YET to put anything in...lmao!!!!!!

Just wanted to show you this cool prim rabbit my girlfriend Leighanne made for me!!!!


So you know I have a love affair with red right?





So I went to old towne Temecula with my sister the other day and scored a couple of RED goodies!!!! check out the scoop that Annie is sitting in!

and omg be still my heart, this darling little red metal doll trunk just sitting there waiting for me to come along and fall in love!!!!

How cute is it...and it sure brought back memorys...cuz I had a doll trunk like it, but not red...for my tiny tears dolls when I was little....its long gone..but the memories still remain...

A mix of things......


I said I would post what I bought at Road...it sure doesnt look like much but I swear I did shop...lol...mostly wool and patterns tho....

Could not resist these old buttons tho...maybe they will make thier way onto an Annie soon?

Got these 2 patterns and they include the plastic template to make these mini quilts...I have made a big square dance quilt but have always wanted to make a tiny one...

and of course if it has an owl Im all over it...can wait to do this wool pattern...

LOVED these prim little Christmas pillows!

and they had these little Softies all made up and they were so cute I could not resist...I see some of them in Stellas future!

What is this you may ask???

This is Becky Higgins project Life..and Im soooo excited to start working on it....its sort of an easy peasy way of scrapping your way thru a year.........sooooo much fun!!!!!
