This is yet another dress i have made for one of my girls for Christmas. I love how these are coming out. This one is made from fabric that i had on hand here. I am saving so much by making this and using what i have!! I can not wait to do more!!
Oh yeah, this one is hard to get on the doll. The back opening is not as big as i would like it. Gotta figure that out for the next one!!

Even More Doll Clothes!!
This is the 2nd poncho that i have made. I bought this little piece of fabric without an idea of what i was going to use it for. I had the perfect matching rick rack to go with it. This is such a simple thing to make. Probably will make more!! I think with the little piece left, i am going to make a little bag for the doll.
I found a piece of this fleece in the clearance bin. I fell in love with it and by chance found the flannel pink that matched perfect in the bin too!! It is so hard to work with the fleece on such a small thing, but it looks so adorable!! Can not wait to make more of these!!

A digital LO
I have not done a lot of digital yet but really want to and need to. I have done a lot of downloading of Freebie kits. This is one LO that i did today from last nights outing to Trunk or Treat. The kit i used for this is NitWits Can I Be Frank? collection. I love this kit. It has some really cute elements in it. This is also for a contest.

More Doll Clothes!
This is a set that i made for my younger dd. She loves anything Asian. I thought this print would be perfect for her doll.
This is a holiday dress that i made. I will be making another one, so each of my dd's will have one for their dolls! I love how it came out.
I went to Joanns on Saturday all by myself and bought some pieces of fabric from their scraps bin. These are 2 of them. I have a few more and can not wait to try making some more stuff!! This is so fun, so easy and the girls will be so excited on Christmas!!

My 1st Paper Piecing...
This is my 1st attempt at paper piecing. I love this owl!! I think next time i will make it a little bigger as some of the pieces were tiny to work with!! I now just have to figure out what this card will be used for. This was a Tuesday Technique on one of my Yahoo groups.
