Merry Christmas

Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! I hope everyone has a safe and happy holidays with lots of family time. :)

She's here

I received my #22 late on Tuesday night and was not able to take a photo until today. Her name is Georgia Peach and she will be my southern belle. She is my birthday gift from my hubby. Enjoy!

Sheldon and Amy

I have them sitting on my printer. I felt that was the perfect spot for them. :) Amy came with glasses, but as we are hoping to buy our first home and move in the next few months, I didn't want to lose them so I left them in her box for now. I think that the photos on the Tonner website do not do her justice. She is quite pretty in person. Enjoy! If the photo looks wonky, photobucket is not being nice right now.

Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday and hubby made it wonderful. He had to work all day, which is normal and doesn't upset me at all. He took my mother, the kids and I out to dinner and then gifted me with an embroidery hoop for my new embroidery/sewing machine, a couple of cd's, several gift cards for fabric and beads and since he always has a hard time ordering MyAG dolls, (he doesn't know how to order the non-historical dolls and when he puts in the product code, it says it doesn't exist), he told me to go ahead and order the doll and he would pay for it. So I ordered a #22 MyAG doll as she looks exactly like my late best friend who had passed away just days after my 20th birthday. I know I still owe you a picture of Sheldon and Amy and will get that posted asap. Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Happy Halloween!!

I hope everyone had a happy and safe Halloween! My kids had fun. Hubby always takes them out as I can't walk for any distance due to my back and they practically run to every house. It is tradition to go to my mom's house and the kids go around there and I stay with my mom and give out candy. :)

AGPlaythings Halloween Swap

As usual, I participated in the Halloween swap. It is my favorite swap of the year. This year, my swap partner wanted Elsa from frozen. So, I bought the pattern, got the fabric and sewed away. :) Lanie decided to model it for me. I had asked for anything relating to either Final Fantasy or Zelda video games. These are my favorite games to play and I have been playing them since they first came out, many, many years ago. (Shhh, my age must remain a secret!) LOL. I received a very beautiful Zelda costume, unfortunately, in transit, the box got squished and some pieces were broken. After several attempts to fix it, I managed to get the pieces to stay together, albeit, a bit tenuously. I was able to take a quick photo or two of Saige wearing the costume, and then carefully took off the headgear as it was the piece that broke into so many other pieces. The glue just doesn't like to attach itself to the clay that the headgear is made of. It keeps slipping off. Anyhow, here is my lovely Zelda costume. I really do love it. :) Please don't mind the dark picture. My house is always dark and it's rainy here so couldn't get the best photo.

Liberty Jane Design Academy

I have been wanting to do this since they were first started, and finally I am able to join! I am using this to give myself either a kickstart back into sewing or/and maybe get my creative juices flowing in designing. I am not only doing this for the AG dolls, but would like to take the knowledge I will learn and put it towards my other size dolls. Especially when patterns for these dolls are not available. Today is the start of it, but it pretty much is just the getting to know you phase. The work starts on Monday and I can't wait to see what this is all about. :)
