Halloween Pendants

Come see how easy this really is!!!

Give Thanks Ornaments and foxy

My new pattern is complete!

Give Thanks - 8 embroidery designs....for ornaments and bowl fillers!

I was really falling behind so badly, but I decided that it is better done late than not at all.

It is in my etsy shop for instant download, so you can work on it immediately....

plus on my website for a printed ad mailed pattern...

plus also on Patternmart.

I just love how sweet the Indian's face turned out...love him!

The pilgrims have their utensils ready!

Watch out Turkey!

It's time to give thanks...

 There are pilgrims, turkeys, an Indian, apple pie, leaves & more!

They make a great gift and look amazing sitting on a little shelf or hanging on a tree.

I have them in a little cabinet here!

These are the latest in my series of embroidery ornaments....

Here are the Valentine, Halloween, Patriotic and Easter.

These are fun stitching up while traveling and watching TV.

Perfect for little pinkeeps and gift toppers too.

 Each ornament has a wool or felt heart on the back.

Isn't he cute?!

I am ready for Thanksgiving!

-----------------------------------------------------

Here is something I have been working on....

It's this fox table mat.....

the design is from the current Simply vintage magazine!

I got out all my wool scraps...

I sewed down the large fox and added big eyes to him.

I love the leaves and berries....it is slowly coming together.

Now it is getting really close to being done...

It is so much cuter in person!

I will post the finished foxy soon!

I have been having the best time making this!

Hope you have a great Wednesday!

come to home matters linky party!

Christmas angels and snowmen

I sewed and painted a few dolls recently...

they were very fun and addicting to make.

I rarely make dolls to sell...but I did put these on etsy! 

There are snwomen... 

Large angel... 

She is machine free motion stitched...she is hand painted. She has a vintage lace flower in her hair with velvet leaf. The angel is stamped, distressed and glittered. She had fancy trims and funny legs. 

Green and red mini angel.... 

Pinky angel....

This crazy snowman... 

and his mini friend....

Come see them in my etsy shop!

Happy Birthday freebie and painted dollys

This one cracks me up!

We all know someone who is facing a milestone birthday...this would be amusing for them!

All in fun!

This would be a great gift tag!

*Please note that all freebies are for you to use to make finished goods (no mass producing) and gifts...they are still legally my designs. 

---------------------------------------------

I wanted to share with you my painted dolls....

I can't find the picture of the dolls before painting them...I am so mad...oh well.

They started out primitive dolls ...drawn on muslin....and free motion stitched.

Then stuffed and added legs (that don't match)

I started painting them with a first coat.

I took the class Primitive dolls by Mindy Lacefield.

She is a great teacher...online and you can purchases them and watch them over and over.

I highly recommend them...I have a few and they are terrific. 

They are in rough form right now.

I added facial features. 

She is starting to take shape...sweet face! 

This is a whole load of fun to do! 

More paint...shading and details. 

My pumpkin gal is starting to also take shape...I knew I wanted to do a pumpkin....which is not part of the class....so I just tried to adapt.

I added the green stem and leaf.  There are pastels used as well as acrylic paint. 

Their faces are done, but their bodies need work. 

The rough edges are part of the charm. 

Now the girl has stamps on her body, gold trim, a sweet crocheted flower in her hair and some distressing ink on her legs. 

I kept looking through my junk for things to add to this pumpkin. 

Now she has a little glitter and is done! 

She has a button by her neckline and I added "Love". 

I am shocked that it turned out so well...I kept thinking I was gonna screw it up along the way.

The pumpkin gal has a bow with glittery button, bat stamp, glitter, and "Boo" on her body. 

I was glad I got this done before Halloween. 

So much fun!

Have a great weekend!!!
