JUST IN TIME TO WARM YOUR HEARTS ON WINTER DAYS .. "SNOWBUDDIES"
dressed in warm blue caps and scarves .. with vintage button eyes and embroidered 'carrot' noses and big smiles and 'coal buttons'.
won't be able to mail these until early January. these little guys will be really cute lined up on your fireplace mantle .. or tucked into a winter wreath .. or just 'hangin' around!
oh Zan if you haven't seen her rag chillun dollies with the "wild child" hair you are in for a surprise. Miz Frannie and I were in a swap a while back and she crafted one of the dollies for me..oh my! lovely ! you certainly will not be disappointed.
thanks miz tina .. and zan dear .. if you ever see one that 'tugs' at your heartstrings' you jus' let me know. i've been makin' dollies for many, many years and have taken lessons from THE BEST teachers (primitive) in the country! i've learned all kindsa' techniques .. but my heart and hands always go back to the little 'nostalgic' ones .. the kind that bring remembrances to your heart of a sweet auntie or olde school friend.
makin' some this mornin' for that fact! be visiting my 'Sister Mercy's Foundlin' Home for Rag Chillin' (blog) soon to see them.
your gurlz have a blessed holiday! xo
wowzer! i promised myself NO forums until 2008 .. but i find it kinda' comfy jus' poppin' in for FIVE minutes a day now! don't have time to read much .. but i want to post a few words now an' then!
oh p.s. gurlfrenz .. i know that not every farmgirl loves PRIMITIVE (oh i surely do though!) and these olde cabins are full of it! but, i know prissy and frilly and lacy makes some of your hearts sing .. soooooo .. do be watchin' from time to time .. cuz' i will post things for those of you who have a more 'victorian' heart! cuz' i love that a little part of me (be it the prissy part or the prim part) comes to live in your homes. xo, frannie
