New: The Softies Kit

I am so excited to tell you that my little pink bunny is in a new kit by Chronicle Books called The Softies Kit. There are some beautiful plush softies that you can make from the kit!

Christmas baking

Time to star making Christmas cookies! These are handmade and ready to go into stockings or to top a package.

My softies are all handmade. No sewing machine is used in the process. These little treats are beaded with glass beads and sequins. You can see them at my Etsy shop. They are sold with two tied together or separately. More are on the way!

Snow Dream Girl In The Making

It does not snow too often here in Virginia Beach. Living near the ocean keeps it just a little too warm to snow. I love snow! I lived in Buffalo New York for many years, so I have had my share of shoveling snow and snowball fights.

When I wanted to create a snow theme for a doll, I went to several fabric stores and fell in love with some soft flannel fabrics.

Here she is in the making...Snowflake will be in my Etsy shop soon. Stop by and have a look at what is new. http://www.mommylion.etsy.com/

Let it Snow

Snowman pins

I finished and mailed out ten snowman pins for my Lollishop promo bags. Boy, they took a long time to finish. It was well worth it. I was very pleased with the results. What do you think?

I have spent the weekend stitching my fingers off. Taking breaks just to buy groceries and do a quick Christmas shopping run. Last week I finished my third "Dream Girl" doll. She was finished just in time to make it in the February edition of Somerset Life Magazine. It is with a group ad for the new Lollishop. She turned out beautiful. What do you think?

Halloween Doll

Boy, this doll sure took a long time to finish! There were many beading details and embellishments to complete. This is Jasper, the third of my dream girls series. She is about 12" tall and ready for Halloween fun!
You can find her at my Etsy shop.
