Good morning.On this fine Saturday in May I would like to introduce you to my newest offerings...
Please meet;
Ladye Dorset.....A Grande White Pumpkin Doll..
I had so much fun making this grande gal...once again..I sketched her, along with fabric choices & details, late one evening while relaxing & watching television.....and...again... she slowly came to life just as I had planned! I LOVE it when that happens!!! AND, yesterday afternoon while sipping coffee on the front porch, enjoying our glorious spring weather, gosh it was just beautiful out...a short story started forming for her...I quickly ran inside..grabbed my pencil & paper..and..there it was......it's funny how while enjoying a beautiful Spring day...a fall story can come to mind..but who am I to question such workings :)I really LOVE her dress! The Regency style dresses are my favorite..OH how I would love it if we all still wore these type's of dresses..truly!!! I would wear the top hat right along with it too! It has taken me over a year to figure out how to create one of these lovely dresses but I've finally gotten it right and I'm oh so happy about it!
Okay..i'm getting way too long winded..I meant to keep this short......
I would like you to meet;
Little Silky & Her Eggs
I just love this sweet little Silky Chicken all nestled in a bed of dried grasses...oh how I long to have a flock of REAL chickens of my own to tend to!AND..last but not least......
~A Sweet Little Trio Of Sawdust Stuffed Birds With Pinkeep~
I just love this fabric...I just can't stop using it!That's it for now..everything is available on my website if you would like to stop by & have a look...you can also read the Ladye Dorset's short story :).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I must run now..we have a crazy busy day ahead with errands and such as we are leaving at 7am tomorrow morning to head up to Paul Smith's College for my sweet baby girl's College Graduation......once again I will say..goodness where does the time go...it seems like yesterday she was a year old!!! We are SOOO very proud of our wonderful, beautiful and brilliant girl Jenna!!!! Oh goodness...just writing that...I started tearing up...good graciou..how will I ever get through tomorrow! I plan on taking hundreds of photo's and I will be sure to share them here first thing next week.
Wishing you a most joyous day, Doreen

Hi Doreen,
It took me a while to get back into the swing of things after such a long vacation but it's good to be back home!
Your offerings are lovely!
I know what you mean about the fabric.
I've got some that I just love to hang on to. I must think of a project that is worthy of it's use.
Have a woderful day!

Undertake no more than you can perform.......................................................
Doreen,
Always the one to amaze us ,they are all so wonderful. You have such a gift for bringing life into each piece. I see that even though spring is barelly upon us the sprit of fall is in your thoughts. I must say though I am just in love your sweet little Silky all full of pride in her little nest. lOVE YOU MOM
She is simply lovely....baby pumpkins and all.
The black and white with the touch of of color in her cone is so effective. Lady Dorset looks down-to-earth and dignified at the same time. She's wonderful!
Oh, Doreen- Miss Ladye Dorset is gorgeous!! I want to head over to your website and read her story...
But first, I must say I let out a tiny (okay, big...) squeal over the Silky on her nest! I have three Silkie hens right now that are SOOO broody- when I reach underneath them they growl at me like tiny little panthers! Such little Divas- you MUST get some one day!
Hi Doreen...glad to see you are back to blogging...sorry I haven't been around for awhile!
Love ALL of your offerings....Ladye Dorset is beautiful! Gorgeous work!
