I started her back in April and gave her grey hair but it just wasn’t working for me. The purple hair is just the thing!

Lady pillow doll with butterflies
I am very happy that Spring has arrived!
Soon it’ll be Summer and that is what she makes me think about.
Folk Art Pillow Lady
Tomorrow I’m off to DC. I’m feeling just a little bit crazy?!!
Bird Lady Pillow Doll
My favorite colors!
I’m moving on to making something new starting today. These ladies have been a blast!
City Birds Lady
Another take on the townhouse design.
Birds (pigeons) flying,
And little houses.
More Summer Flowers in February
Maybe I’m dreaming of a vacation in warmer climes!
A red-haired garden lady in her summer dress.
Cashmere flowers, leaves, and butterflies.
Queen of Hearts Lady
Sometimes it can be a VERY long time between me considering something and it actually getting made. It might be nearly 10 years ago that I drew out a playing card lady and put some fabric together in a ziplock bag. I’m sure this lady isn’t exactly what I imagined originally but I’m happy and will work on this design some more.
Cat Lady Pillow Doll
This is the last of the lady dolls for now. I finished her a few days ago but the weather has been so wet and gloomy that I wasn’t able to take any photos until today.
Her hair isn’t just black: it has a textured weave which I love.
Close-up of the kitties-
A black cat tail wraps around the back.
And here is all the ladies, enjoying each others’ company.
And Happy Thanksgiving to all my US friends! I hope all of your food is delicious and all your company is cheerful!
Flower Lady
More butterflies!
And more (even brighter) orange hair.
This photo (below) seems to get the color closest to correct, on my computer anyway.
One more lady left on the table to finish.
Autumn Lady
The Fall has been beautiful this year in my neighborhood. Walking through all the colors inspired me to make this lady.
Lots of variegated embroidery threads got used :-)
