There is a marked chill in the air now, time for scarves, mittens and woolies! Thanks for stopping by! Please meet: PINECONE He is a 12" chocolate mohair traditional teddy. The color is a bit deeper and richer than the photo shows. He is fully jointed with wool felt paw pads, German glass eyes and hand shaded details. Pinecone wears a long stocking cap made from an antique child's green stocking with 2 rusty bells on the tip! Pinecone's stocking cap wraps his neck to keep him warm. A real pinecone also hangs around his neck. I can just picture him nestled in a big wooden bowl full of greens . . . but I didn't have time to photograph him that way! ;-) $315.00 I'M SOLD ~ THANK YOU! Decided to snap that photo in a bowl of greens! Enjoy! Stay toasty! Lori Ann
Hello friends. I've been on a short hiatus from blogging. I have been stitching a bit. The fellow above is something I drew out and stitched one morning. Since then I have been stitching away. I'm a fan of whipping the edges rather than the blanket stitch. It is easy and relaxing, and gives the piece a simpler look. I've read about others who use this means of finishing as well. I am just unable to master the blanket stitch! For me, hand sewing is very calming. It's portable and I don't have to fret about following a pattern. Lately, I've been battling a few auto-immune issues, and pulling my needle through wool or linen is the best medicine. ******************************************************** A wonderful new book was just released. It is a visual feast! My copy arrived a few days ago and I have not put it down. "Black Dolls from the collection of Deborah Neff" Edited by Frank Maresca Published by Radius Books The book is full of glorious photos of these magnificent creations. Humble and beautiful, the collection makes my heart sing. Vintage photos of children and their dolls, as well as essays that give a bit of the history behind these lovingly sewn beauties, make this book a true prize. Check it out...you will not be sorry! Enjoy the day, Robyn
