Merry Christmas!!

I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!! It was a good day here. The kids are happy, the hubby is happy and I am happy. Hubby got me a few AG things for Christmas, but the best thing he got was a Vintage Kenmore sewing machine with cabinet. :) I will post pics a little later when the house isn't so much in chaos. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Thanksgiving

I just wanted to wish all my American friends a Happy Thanksgiving!

My new Fairyland dolls

I received my dolls on Tuesday, but have been feeling kinda blah, so I didn't post the picture of them until now. Sorry for the dark photo. It was a little overcast and getting late in the day when I finally got home with them. Enjoy! Luna and Roro photo 100_1099_zps53a4ff13.jpg

My Fairyland Dolls, Sewing, Etsy

Earlier I had posted that I ordered some dolls from Fairyland. They will be in on Tuesday and will post pics of them. I am really excited to get them. I have made an outfit for the bigger one, just waiting until Tuesday to finish them as the pattern was for a slightly different doll and want to make sure all the closures are in the right spot for this doll. The other doll coming in has an outfit that I ordered for Halloween. I will make more clothes for it a bit later. I have some outfits that are ready to put on Etsy and will do that very soon. I will post on here when that will happen every time I add something to the store.

She is beautiful. :) Saige and Easel set photo 100_1068_zps5be220e9.jpg Sketches photo 100_1069_zps8c212343.jpg Paints photo 100_1070_zpsdf4d5942.jpg Easel and Paintings photo 100_1071_zpsbf14bc80.jpg Saige photo 100_1072_zps324d6753.jpg My daughter is jealous as she wants the Easel set herself. :) LOL Maybe for Christmas!

My Dream Machine

Last month, Husqvarna Viking came out with a new top of the line sewing/embroidery machine. The Designer Diamond Royale! I finally had a chance to visit my local dealer and play with it for a couple of hours and I love it. I am going to start saving for it. My Dream Machine photo royaledreammachine_zpsf4d9e0db.jpg

My Other Doll Obsession

You may not know, but I am not only into American Girl dolls, but I also love Tonner, Silkstone and BJD's. I haven't really done much with the Barbie Silkstone or Tonner dolls lately, but hopefully that will change soon. I have however, been really getting into BJD's. I have had one BJD for a couple of years now, but have really wanted several more. I have finally been able to order 2 more dolls and they should be here around my birthday in November. I have ordered a Fairyland RealPuki Roro and a Littlefee Luna. I can't wait. I have wanted these two dolls since I first set eyes on them about a year ago. I will post pictures of them when they get here, but will post links to the company website so you can see what they look like.

Second Swap and what I'm working on now

Well, I signed up for another swap and it was shipped out yesterday. Once the recipient receives it, I will post a pic. I am working on View B of the Netherfield pattern by Magalie of MHD Designs. I will post a pic later of all the pleats and the progress of the outfit. I am hoping to sell it probably on ebay. I also finished working on Magalie's pattern called Patchouli for Julie. I am keeping that outfit as I made a booboo with the serger. LOL It turned out fine though. :)

AGPT Swap Items

The AGPT swap items have been sent and received, so I thought I would post the photos of everything. First, the outfit and items I shipped out. I made a t-shirt, shorts, hoodie and over the shoulder bag. I also sent lots of goodies to England and my swap partner.  photo 6636d45e-621f-4391-9ed7-def3b6188dee_zps9d860b9d.jpg  photo 62d0436c-eccb-43e5-b457-e87328608b42_zps23171ce8.jpg I received a wonderful outfit for Caroline, complete with socks and shoes.  photo 23340578-6f67-4815-bf07-b16bf5b22fdf_zps873fef00.jpg  photo f9c61ab3-4b6b-4657-ba85-e2ea05ebb158_zps528e73c5.jpg I had a wonderful time doing this swap and signed up for another one on AGFans board. :) Check back to see those photos.

Working on swap project

I signed up for another swap. I really use these to try and keep up with sewing. I have been doing a bit lately and want to keep up the momentum. I have done a few outfits for Caroline and Julie. I hope to have some nice weather soon to post pictures and hopefully start putting some outfits in my Etsy shop. I have had to do a bit of traveling lately to see a back surgeon and a neurologist for my migraines. Just more continuing stuff from my car accident. Although I have have migraines and headaches every day since I was 16, they have gotten substantially worse since my car accident and have prohibited me from doing a lot of things. I try and get in things when I feel better or good, but my activity level has definitely dwindled to a mere trickle. Hopefully I will have pictures up soon. Thanks for reading. :)
