Creative changes in the works!

Ive been taking online art classes with a lot of crafty, fun and wonderfully creative people for the last 6 months or so…the classes were crazy fun! The teachers were filled with so many ideas and new avenues for artsy adventures, what a blast it was. I’d never realized that there were so many art mediums to use and so many ways to use them, I was in awe and lovin every minute.

I plan to take more classes in the near future, but in the meantime, I’m looking forward to using some of those cool, creative, and just plain ol’ fun ideas in my own brand of art.

Summer fun, here I come!

A few Waldorf Dolls that have made their way to a little boy and girl in VA

Pictures of my granddaughters quilt

I have just recently received the pictures of the finished quilt that I had made for my new granddaughter due in mid april 🙂 As I had posted, I neglected to take pictures when the quilt was finished due to “me” being in such a hurry! I was so excited to see my children and my grandson and my daughters “baby bump” that has grown so that I forgot to take pictures :-0. But here they are as promised. 

and I just had to post these sweet little crocheted shoes that my daughter, who’s due with this cute little one, made just recently!

I can’t wait to see her in them! 

I’m on to making the bedding for this darling little baby girl and will be taking all of it with me on my next trip to the East Coast! It will be such a pleasure to be there to help in the making of our “Princessa’s” room, I’m so very excited, I only wish that I could be there for the birth. 

This is the last project I’ll post for tonight…..it is a star patterned crocheted blanket for my granddaughter. I’m about halfway to the finish line, its a nice little diversion when I need a sit-down breather 🙂

Have a beautiful evening……

A Few Pictures are Worth a 1000 Words

I’ve finished my oldest daughter’s quilt and delivered it! I did not take pictures of the finished product, I was so busy getting it done and packed to take to her for her baby shower that somehow it was overlooked. I’ve asked her to take some pictures for me and she’s promised to do just that. 

I do have pictures of the 2 latest Waldorf inspired dolls to post. They are a boy and girl pair that are 9 inches and customized to be similar to the sweet brother and sister that are adopting them. 

I’m on to making some doll clothing combinations to post in my Etsy store and should have them soon!

 

 

I’ll be working on an elephant also with this pink and grey fabric for my new granddaughter who will be here in April, I can’t wait!

I’ll be back soon,

Love, Hearts and Valentines Day

Happy Valentines to EVERYONE!

Its a beautiful Friday here in AZ!  The temps are at around mid 80’s with the sun shining brightly through the windows.

I’m currently working on 3 dolls a quilt and a stuffed elephant and should get back into the sewing room sometime today. But for now errands and enjoying  the weather are on my agenda.

I haven’t been able to login to wordpress in some time now…..so of course no posts! I resolved that problem and will be posting the new creations that are in the works shortly. In the meantime…….

 

ENJOY YOUR VALENTINES DAY!

On to Another Waldorf Doll..or 2

I’m in love with making dolls…that’s a definite fact. I go to bed thinking about dolls and what the next one should look like, I wake up and find myself walking straight into the sewing room. I could think of crazier ways to spend my time… but this isn’t one of those things that fits the crazy category for me ;-)though, it’s completely doable and I love it.

This is what I’m currently working on; a 16″ Waldorf and a 5″ Waldorf (mini)…and an Owl. I haven’t decided whether or not the Waldorf’s will be boys or girls or one of each, but they’ll be fun no matter.  I have the heads done on both the dolls and the Owl is only in the thought stage for the moment but I will get him in the works in a just a few moments of time.

I made a Fox a few days ago for my youngest daughter and will send that out to her as soon as the Owl is done, shouldn’t be to long.  And I’m really excited to get the face and body done for the Waldorfs…cause dressing them is a life of it’s own!

Ok,

Zandar, in the early stages….2010

for the moment, I’ll take a break from this post and work on the dolls………….I have pics of the beginnings of the Waldorfs but for some reason they don’t want to show their faces! Literally!

I’ll be back…

Ps, that’s Zandar, he’s my Elf…very handsome!

Im dashing and debonaire..and ready to go out on the town!
