Judy

Judy is a monster girl. Judy knows she adds a burst of pop anywhere she goes because of her red and white polkadot body. Judy is no wallflower.

Judy is pictured with a yardsale book find. I love old books, too.

Henry the Imp

Henry is a wee imp who loves to collect dust bits. Henry is working on collecting the biggest ball of dust in history.If you purchase Henry you may notice a decline in the time you devote to dusting.

Henry is made from recycled fabrics and buttons. Henry's striped body is made from a shirt.

Henry is sitting on an unfinished side table that i painted and junked up with smashed bottlecaps. I LOVE bottlecaps and always will. I love bottlecap art, which some wince at. I love trash :D

Nail Biting

Okay, first look at this wonderful, magnificent painted piece of furniture....wardrobe. Just beautiful and to die for!! I have an old 30's wardrobe that we retired to the basement because it didn't fit in our small new living room. I could do something like this to it. I could but.... but I am a truly truly kid at heart who has not forgotten the magic of fairytales, etc and so I imagine my 30's wardrobe (that's in the basement) like the one from The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe... How can i paint an authentic piece of furniture???? This is always my dilemma! Sigh sigh sigh.....I want to funk it up, kinda like a Bloomsbury, but then....sigh. What to do?? I found these great pics through:

Ulla

Ulla likes to read on the porch and hopes for an adventure of her own. Her two heroines in life being Heidi and Pippi Longstocking.

Ulla is made from recycled fabrics. Her bold folky flower print dress is made from a curtain panel.

Fronts and Backs

I am working on a Kitty girl right now from one of the many little doodles I do about the day. It's looking pretty close to the drawing which doesn't always happen. It is a simple design afterall, but still. I love the orange-green folk flower fabric. It's from a curtain. I only had one panel that didn't fit anywhere in my house. If I had had two panels I may have hung them up somewhere because it's a pretty cool bold design.
Sometimes I get the urge to stuff a plushie inside out because I love the crazy thread behind the scenes. It's a battle sometimes :D
