New Dolls

I will be in an art show next month, so, I am busy making dolls. They are made on a wire armature, wrapped with quilt batting, fabric and fibers. I then do some beading and maybe add a piece of vintage jewelry. I have never sold my dolls before, so this is a brand new experience for me. Hope it goes well!

Selvage edge purse

I've been playing with the selvage edges of my fabric lately. After I finished the selvage edge skirt, which my granddaughter loved, I wanted to try something else. I used the pattern I designed a few months ago, which is selling pretty well at the local quilt shop. Hope you like it.

Halloween Doll

Yet another wrapped doll! I have taught this method a number of times and never seem to tire of it. I came across this chiffon skirt I had made for my daughter for a dance back in high school (quite a few years ago) and thought it would be perfect for a witch. I had wrapped an armature in black already so all that was left was the fun part! She was going to be a Halloween witch, but she turned out way to cute for that....so she is just a Halloween doll. I will call her Kat, after a very dear and sick friend.

New Art Quilt

I used hand dyed fabrics in this quilt. I took a class in dyeing a few months ago and dyed twenty yards of fabric. Guess it's time to start using some of it.

Pin Cushion

This pin cushion was made from a free online pattern called Zadora by Sandra Corson-Walker. I did change it up some. This is the link, pinkeeps.blogspot.com/.../free-zadora-pincushion-bysandra-corson.html

Selvage Edge Skirt

Last week I saw a pillow made from the selvage edges of fabric. It was so cool! I went home and was going to make one. I was in the process of making a child's skirt from a pair of recycled blue jeans. So, instead of a pillow I made a skirt. Only one problem.... which granddaughter gets it!
