Speaking of ugly dolls....

they are the cutest ugliest dollys ever...and I , I mean Stella, must have them ALL!!!!! so far we have 3.....but its just the beginning!!!!!

OMG twins!!!!!

We just ordered this one..............isnt she a doll????

I mean really....I just wanna sit and play with them...and Stella...all day long!!!


what IS IT about me and ugly dolls???????
anyways....enough of this nonsense, I need to get back to the sewing machine and get busy!!!! I want to thank everyone for the sweet comments and emails.....99% of bloggers are the most amazing supportive and uplifting gals I have ever met!!!!!!!!!
OH and before I forget....Im almost to 500 posts....I think another week or so, so I will be having a give away....have not decided yet what it is....lets see what I create this week....will let you know soon!!!!!!

More ugly dolls!!!!!!

Not this gal of course......shes adorable...and little!!!! BUT............

These guys caused quite a stir!!!!!! Now I know not everyone is into prim...heck...most of my friends and family think prim is a little odd....but its what I like and I make what I like. so THERE!!! lol.....

However...one blogger hated them so much she felt led to email me and tell me so!!!!!! SO what did I do?????

well...after considering the source.......I made a bunch MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH Im quite sure I will get blasted again.....but its the dog days of summer here.....Im a little bored, and I could use the laugh!
so bring it.......again!!!! lol

Its National Dog Day....

Its National Dog Day today........and those of you who know me know how much I love my dogs....more than I like most folks if the truth be known...they are loving...loyal...always there for you...
They bring so much joy...and pain..and sometimes we wonder if the pain is worth it....it is. I almost lost my Little Cheech last year...and a some people I love lost their best friends last year...it was a bad dog year. But we made it thru...we miss those that are gone and love those that are here. I will give them an extra treat today and love them like theres no tomorrow...because sometimes there isnt....

Here she is....

Ms. October.......

Also...hubby took me to go see The Help and I have to say it was a GREAT movie. I had read the book when it first came out and loved it...and usually the movie is never as good as the book..BUT in this case..it was. RUN and go see it...you wont be sorry, you will laugh and you will cry...lots of different emotions...LOVED IT!!! and hubby loved it too...I was a little afraid it would be more chick flickish...but he loved it too...
