~Wishing you all a wonderful Thanksgiving day. Enjoy your time with family and friends.~Diane
Madeline Rae VanVleetI've been working on Santa orders this week. I've made progress but do have quite a ways to go. Time is slipping by so fast and of course when you work in your home there are many distractions but I'm trying my best to keep my concentration on the task at hand. I have a couple of more orders (smaller ones) to complete after the Santas but I'm going to try to get Mr. Jingles finished for Ebay sometime in the next week or so.I've been enjoying the new Christmas issues of my magazines in the evening when I have a bit of free time. I particularly loved the December issue of Early American Life. I want to order the holiday issue of FOLK, this is a newer magazine that I've not seen yet but I have heard it's a really good one.My weekend will be spent sewing but Sunday I plan to attend my great-niece's baptismal. Madeline just turned two months old on the 16th and she is absolutely adorable! The picture was taken shortly after her bath, her hair curls when it's damp. She's very quickly stolen my heart and I can't wait to see her on Sunday. My niece, her husband and Madeline live several hours away so I don't get to see them as much as I like.Hope you all enjoy your weekend, talk to you next week.Diane
~Merry~
Tonight I listed the first of a short series of dolls I'll be listing on Ebay. They're in a simpler more primitive style but still with plenty of detail and extras. Merry comes with two ornaments; a strawberry and an Angel. The ornaments can be used on your own tree or be left pinned to Merry. The second doll in the series will be Mr. Jingles, look for him coming soon.I'm also continuing to work on a special order of several Santas. Needless to say, I'm staying very busy. Hope all is well in your world. Til next time...Diane
