A new Friend and a rest....

Happy Summer Vacation!

Amazingly, the kids had their last day of school today. We're out so early this year. It's always crazy for the first couple of weeks and I'll be gone for a bit.

I have a bit of cuteness to hold my place while I'm gone.


One of the moms at preschool was planning a birthday party for her little girl - turning 7 I believe. She asked if I had any girly fabric scraps she could have for the party craft. I remembered this sweet daisy print and a pretty sear sucker that I had bought for a crafty project that never got made. She was so happy and loved them - then brought me one of the finished dolls as a thank you. What a wonderful surprise she was!


I think she's just beautiful and looks quite happy in her new home with the gnomes and hedgehogs in my sewing space. The mom hand painted them - the face is so sweet! The green and blue are just perfect. And the little pink barrette. I just had to share her. Hope to see you when I return.
