I Just finished 4 Not Quite Prim Dollies




I had fun this weekend sewing these Gurlz. I've been wanting to make some dollies with painted faces for a while now. Dolls have alwlays been my first love, when it comes to crafting. The bodies are made from hand dyed muslin. I chose to leave the clothing unstained. A bit off the norm again. It's fun to break out of the box once in a while.
I plan to put these on Etsy and the Handdid Market.

It's been SNOWING for 24 hours


Talk about a Snow Day! We are in the heaviest snowfall zone on the East Coast. In my whole entire life, I don't remember having this much snow in a Winter. We would maybe get one big storm a season. This year we have had two Huge Major Snow storms, plus several smaller ones.

This one takes the cake. It blew alot, so It's hard to measure. I'm guessing it's between two and three feet. This picture of my Pedistal Birdbath was taken 2 hours before the snow stopped.

I live a mile back at the dead end of the road. The snow plow has to turn around here. As usual, It got stuck. My Husband had to get the tractor out to help get it "Unstuck".

This gives me plenty of time to cook, sew, and just Vege.

I'm loving it for now, but Cabin Fever will kick in and I'll need to Escape.

Grace goes to the Dentist

My 3 year old Granddaughter Grace went to the Dentist for the first time. Her Daddy took her and she was the perfect patient. With that smile, she should be a poster child for them!

Living Room Makeover

Once Christmas was put away, we got to work on our living room. The carpet came out and the floors were refinished. We got a new TV and wall unit, along with a rug, sofa, chair and coffee table. We are still waiting on another chair and ottoman that will go where the rocking chair sits.

I'm very happy with the redo, and Brett's Happy with his "new" old furniture in his brand new apartment.

I'm very thankful for a Husband that knows how to do things. This old 1864 house has been through so many renovations.
Our next project is converting Brett's old bedroom and the adjoining room into a Master.
I'll have to wait a while for that.
