I am having (maybe a little too much) fun with the embroidery.

Sunny Baby
This is #3.
My desk looks like an explosion of threads as I keep pulling more and more out of various drawers!
Forest Baby
Fall is in the air here in Boston and maybe that is why I am thinking about piles of green leaves. They won’t be here much longer!
You can get an idea of this baby’s profile in these 2 pics (above and below).
Here is the back- mostly plain.
Swaddled Baby 1
Folk art baby time! I love doing the raw-edge wool applique on these dolls.
bright flower baby
Bright summery flowers now that it is fall. They will all be gone soon.
I will put these last 3 into my Etsy shop tomorrow, Thursday.
little birds baby
Because it’s the pumpkin time of year!
misty bird baby and October news
I love this dusty purple color- it always makes me think of an early morning mist.
Well, what can I say about the Nashville show. It was not my best show ever. As a result, I have LOTS of great work in my Etsy shop! So, good news, bad news ;) Also, I brought 2 of these babies to work on/demonstrate and I got them both almost finished. Hurray for that!
After I got back last week, there’s the giant pile of catching up. The regular life ones- laundry, groceries, sleeping, and then the biz ones- putting the show stuff away for now, shipping, emails, listing all those things onto etsy! Then another day trip away for a memorial service. But now I am ready to get back to work.
I feel like this is a year for me to try new things (example- different shows) and I now have pieces in 2 galleries- The Society of Arts and Crafts in Boston and also True Lily, a shop that my doll-making friend, Nancy Wiley, is opening in Canandaigua, New York. Of course, the thing is, it is always the year to try new things. You never get it all figured out, right?!
swaddled baby- purple and green
Herringbone birds!
Leaf hat-
Swaddled baby and Tennessee Craft!
Today is the day- Tennessee Craft Fall Fair in Nashville opens and I will be in Centennial Park for the next 3 days!
I’ve got just a few more things that I finished up before leaving Boston. A sleeping swaddled baby-
Winter Baby 2
This is a sleepy little one.
I wanted to show you this pic so you could compare it to this one, before all the snow. Although the step that the pug is next to isn’t even showing at the bottom of this photo!
