New tie-on pillow finish!
I made this little pillow for my girlfriend who just had baby #6! A little boy, and she named him Lucas, which really tickles me as that is my oldest son's name. This is a Lizzie Kate design stitched on 28ct gingham graziano. I just LOVE how it turned out! And once again I used the tie-on pillow directions from the Focus on Finishing blog! Thanks Karen for your wonderful tutorials!

May Baskets Pillow
I finished this pillow using the tutorial at the Focus on Finishing blog found here.
It was very quick and easy to follow. I definitely think I will be making more of these little pillows!

Country Cottage WIP
I also started this one while I was on vacation. I love the colors! It is called A Place We Call Home.
New inspiration and great news!
I just got back from vacation and I am feeling really inspired. I am ready to create again! And as luck would have it, I was contacted by Soft Dolls and Animals magazine, and asked to do a pattern for them. I am going to do a variation of my Snow Queen doll for the December issue! I am very excited about this!!
Here are a few pictures from my vacation. I am always inspired by architecture, I just love it. And Charleston SC is loaded with such beauty!
This last one is from Annapolis,MD. right outside the Naval Academy.
Dollmaking Blogs!
It's good to see so many of my dollmaking friends are beginning to blog. Wait until they all find out how addicting it can be ! Har! Har! I will be adding a lot of blogs to my sidebar in the next couple of days. But in the meantime I wanted to highlight some of them. So here are a few good blogs:
