94 Days Till Halloween!!


You know you're excited :D


Halloween-ish blog header I made for October. If I can wait that long, haha.

New doll in works

I haven't taken a pic in natural light in FOREVER! I think I should be taking advantage of the summer light :D
Besides it evokes a different mood. A calming one.

New Dolls for Pop Art Gallery










New Dolls! I have more coming, too.
You think summer means more time.....but it only means more time to make food for hungry kids :D

Rabbit Mask






I attempted a mask a few days ago. It's basic, but my first :)
I need to learn how to sew snouts, so I will try a patter next. When I was younger my mom sewed me a furry wolf mask with snout for Halloween.....the wolf head had a granny cap sewed on and spectacles.....it was the wolf dressed up like granny from Little Red :D I loved that costume! She got the pattern from a book.......something about sewing costumes inspired by nursery rhymes....I tried looking it up but I suck at research :D

I got this mag at a yard sale last month and just recently looked through it to find these wonderful images!
