busy week, New Chicken Stitchery, soaps and feedsacks

It has been a busy week, trying to play catch up. I am so far behind. I feel like I have been on a long vacation, without any of the fun. Have quite a few doll orders backed up. I have working on them this week.

I found some soap base laying around, I have been trying to spring clean some this week. I got a new mold from Homespun Heart primitives. the Prairie doll and wanted to get some of her made up. I also made up some of the Raggedy Anne mold soap. I still have to rub some dry cinnamon on them to grungy them up. But love how they turned out.

Samantha got another stitchery made up this week, This one is called the Olde Homestead. She is advertising a country style apron with this pillow in the fall issue of the Country Sampler. I have this pattern on the side bar if you are interested in purchasing for $2.00. This pillow is a 9" x 10" size.


The New issue of Country Sampler is out and the black doll I have in there is selling really well. I have the dolls almost completed, all are sold, so have to get to Walmart and get more paint. One of the Walmart's, we were in recently, had some of their acrylic paints marked down. So you all might want to check, another thing they seem to getting rid of. I checked my Walmart in town, and sure enough, the barn red paint was on clearance. I bought all of it they had. So hopefully, these girls will get their hair and eyes on tonight. I hope to get them on their way Monday.


I have a few new feedsack designs I added to my website. I love the elf one. I hope to have lots of elves made this year. The feed sacks will go great with them. The logos are from eweandmeprintables. These are selling great for me. My daughter kept telling me I need a horse one, so I finally got it.


Well, the rest of the weekend is sewing and trying to finish orders, then hopefully I get that Raggedy Anne finished, She still needs her clothes. She will be a new pattern for Christmas. Hope you all have a great weekend.
