Keeping my word!

I said I'd be showing a couple more things...here they are! In my early crafty-smafty days I did dolls. Just dolls. I've since moved on to a lot more variety mainly because these days it's nice to have things available that have a purpose. More useful. Doesn't mean I don't still love doll making. I've really missed it...so here is my folksy Witch. Faces are always a challenge. I wanted her to have pretty eyes (not evil) and a semi-evil mouth. I'm very happy how it all turned out. The rooster feathers I used for hair are from Bass Pro Shop ! Great selection of feathers and stuff there! And in addition to the witchy-poo I stitched another owl to add to my little owl family. Filled this one with lavender!

Hope all is well out there in Blog-landia!

So sweet and filled with lavender!

My Folk Art Witch!

Her hair is rooster feathers, and the net on her hat is vintage!

A stitching fool...

I've been stitching a lot lately...keeps my mine from wandering off about all the creepy bad stuff going on in the world! I can just totally get lost in what I'm doing.Cheaper than therapy!
After the cutesy owls were done, I decided a change of pace was in order! This was a kick in the pants! Her "top" is solid French knots and the stockings are black net ! I about pulled my hair out trying to figure out how to achieve this...LOL!!!
To all my blog buddies affected by Irene please try to stay safe...and dry!!
Prayers to you all !!
