Annies

Here are a couple Annie's I am offering...  Not sure if you want to call them Annie shelf sitters,busts, stump dolls or what but here they are...  I love how they turned out.  This first one I had originally finished it just as an Annie but then I changed it up a bit to go more towards an Americana Annie!  I thought with her red hair, the quilt pocket being white and blue.. see where I am going...  teehee....  Hope you like how she is now. 

Americana Annie

Primitive Annie


For details you can check them out in the suitcase on the left named "Annie / Prairie dolls".

Thank you, Happy Friday, Fall Craft Shows already???


Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes..    Seems like as you get older it is just another day.  I tend to not even really pay attention to how old I am anymore.. hehe...  or maybe I just choose to forget.. nah,,,  that couldn't be it...hehe  My hubbies birthday is a week after mine so we usually have a BBQ and invite all our friends over and have a big to do... Not this year... We didn't do anything to celebrate it like we usually do, just went out to dinner, the two of us and my daughter took me out to lunch...  and even though it was more of a quiet birthday it was so enjoyable!  So thanks again friends!!

It has been quite a week..  So, I told you all about my gramma breaking a rib.  Then my grampa was getting out of his truck and stepped out wrong, twisting his ankle and almost fell down but luckily he mananged to keep on his feet, after stumbling halfway across the parking lot he said...  Yikes.... So,,, anyways, I ended up taking him in to minor emergency and he has a fractured toe and has to wear a big boot until we go to the foot/ankle doctor on Monday....  What a pair my gramma and grampa are... hehe...  Sure glad it is something that will heal and not some health issues that will stay with them permanently... 

On another note, I got my first application to sign up for a craft show in "OCTOBER".. oh my gosh...  and so it has begun again...  I guess I better get my behind in gear... I still have some things to finish that I have started and so many things I have been wanting to make...  I just need to find some time..

I guess the weather will be nice this weekend, Finally!!!  So... not sure I want to be inside crafting..  We will see how it goes I guess.. hehe...

Have a wonderful weekend!!
