More Shakers

This Kitty Shaker was made from a Pea Pickers Primitives Pattern & the Skeleton was made from a Back Porch Pickins Pattern.


Are you ready for Halloween? Gosh, it seems like I am.

I know I am gonna decorate this year. No plans for a party, but I just love decorating!

I had to take a picture of the four shakers I made together. They all look so festive.

Today, I think I will finish the Frankenstien Shakers that I started last week. They are very close to being finished, just adding bells and grunging them.


I wanted to start a devil doll, but I really would love to add red hair to her. If anyone knows how I can dye my white wool from Crowing About Primitives, please let me know. I thought it would be neat to have hair on her, but maybe she will just have to be bald...lol I have also cut out osnaburg for Back Porch Pickins Hideous Helga, so maybe I will work on her.

My Bee Queen did not sell on E-bay, so I am going to add some more detail to her and either hang onto her or put her on ETSY. I have not had any major sales on ETSY, yet. A couple of paintings, I practially gave away. LOL But, Oh well I guess I am a starving artist.

I have been making dolls for 4 months now. Gosh, by the looks of this blog, you'd think I was working for longer than that. It seems longer than that, to me to. But, I looked up my first doll sale on e-bay and it was the end of March. I cannot wait till a year has gone by. That should be really neat to see how I have progressed. I still cannot beleive I sew! I SEW?! If you knew me growing up, you'd understand. :)

Well, I should be going, I have 3 loads of laundy to do and some crafting! Have a lovely Saturday!
