Sewing the Blues





I never hide the fact that I LOVE AQUA!
It's been my favorite hue for as long
as I can remember. These days I've been on the hunt for
some of the loveliest aqua fabrics.
 It hasn't been easy. I'm pretty picky when
it comes to my precious blue...

Happy Weekend! - D

Pile of Pretties

TGIM! I love Mondays...I know, weird huh? That's ok.  
I love them because my work surface is clean, cleared out
 and ready for another crazy week!

Just a pile of pretties waiting for their details. 
Painting, fluffing and stitching are in my plans today. 
They'll be making their way home very soon.

Happy Monday to you all  -D

Blue Skies

The skies are dark and dreary today. It's been that way all week.


As I took a break from sewing I went outside and could see 
the sun playing peek-a-boo


I miss the Sun. It's been hiding for quite some time now. 

Here's hoping your day is filled with glorious warm sun and sweet laughter.  

Happy Thursday!

Purple Posies


I've been dying to work with this gorgeous 
Amy Butler fabric, GYPSY CARAVAN.

I could've gone so many ways with this doll. I chose to really 
emphasize the lavender hues. 
 I think I'll try another twist the next go around.

The weather has been odd lately. 
A little bit of May gray in the skies (a day early). 

Here's hoping your Monday is filled with nothing but sunshine.

Tattered Treasures

















Little 'C' is growing up so quickly.
This picture just tugs at my heart strings.
                                     




















I can see the love she has for her dolly...
just look at that tattered hair.
It's these moments when I realize that a simple little
creation can bring a lifetime of memories.


















A laugh, a cry...whenever we need a good hug. 
If you can't have your sister, at least you still have your dolly!

Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow


These little cuties will be added to my shop later today.
I love all three of them and wish I could hold on to them.

Happy Tuesday - D

New in Town


Inspired by two of my favorite garden plants,
Cassidy is as sweet as they come.

She's a beautiful combination of sea blue and soft pinks.

I almost got carried away with the Hydrangea blossoms.


I kept adding and adding until I got it just the way I wanted.

She'll be making her way to my shop Wednesday along with a couple
of friends.

Happy Monday! - D
