here is our Jack and Jill

Jill first.....



It is not a very good picture of the two of them....

but maybe in the daylight tomarroe I can do a

better job of it.

LOL

Can't you just see these two rascals

"falling down the hill"!

Head is on

It's a pretty big head..... but I am gettin closer to putting all of her together and then

the paint!

Poor thing

she has been in pieces for so long now!



Margie and Katrina

Here they are

dressed in their new clothes.

they are absolutely darling in these beautiful outfits.

HERE ARE MORE OF MOM'S

WONDERFUL

CROCHETED CREATIONS.

these are both the right size

for a preemie blessing dress.



Changed the eyes

I also thinned the neck and jawline some more.

I think this is better

more delicate.

You are right. Definately looks more feminine. R.

three waldorfs and an Izzannah

Plus a strawberry (s)

Got three completed and have Jill almost complete

This is still the first Izannah doll I have been working on

I sanded on her for 2 hours

this afternoon and have sketched on some features.

I think I will give this one a day or so and then start the paint.

Her cheeks are fatter than I wanted.

but all I am wishing for is something "not terrible" for the first one!

LOL


Marvelous!!! Simply Marvelous!!! R.

Spring Pictures!

The weather was nice today, so we ventured outside for a few photos.

Look at this silly girl - up a tree!

 

We got a little carried away in the trees and had to climb the wood pile.
Ummmm..... just like a farm girl
playin in the wood pile with her nice dress and purse on! LOL

We hope you all had a beautiful spring day at your house!!


What a great trip outside on the "  Sutton Farm"  with your cute dolly in her new
clothes!

You have made my day!  I am thinking warm spring weather is not going
to happen here in the pacific northwest.... I had forgotten what it looks like.....
thank you Ruth

A Doll Named Violet

Mom did an awesome job on this dress!! I think she may be keeping this for herself, but we'll need a doll name Violet to match the dress! What do you think?

Well I think,  even if I make a dolly named *potatoe* she will look wonderful in this little dress!
Once again you have crafted a wonderful work,
You and Mom are really quite talented!

Velour Dress & Outfit

Pale Yellow sweater with beads and lace trim. The red flower is hand crocheted from Embroidery floss. The Dress is a pale mint green with embroidery around the hem and neckline, and floral print under skirt.

Complete with anklets and red Mary Janes.

Oh my,,, isnt this cute.   You have done a great job Ruth!  I can't wait to see it in person

Mom's New Dreses

Aren't these just beautiful! We have White, and Yellow or White and Pink.

Mom has done a beautiful job.
We're just putting some finishing touches on them and then they'll be off to you Peggy!

Mom,   I think these are far to beautiful to be listed as doll clothes!
These are definately Christening Dresses for new born babes.
I am so impressed with you crocheting talents that you have.
Keep up the good work.

Bangs, curls, pigtails

or Leave Him like He is?

what do you think Linda, Ruth, Alyce and Mom.

I have not sewn his hair down yet.

Let me know....

I think he is ready for arms and legs and clothes

just the way he is.

(i mean after his hair is sewn down.)LOL



Posted Round Robin Quilts

We had Quilt group today. You will want to click on the top of the pages where it says Quilts and Crafts so see the latest quilt blocks. If this is new to you, this is what we are doing in our group. Each person wrote a 1 page history of their lives listing key memories, hobbies, family, activities, dreams etc. Then each person got a box with an assortment of fat quarters or favorite fabrics they would like to have a quilt made from, (about 30 fabrics). Then that person made a 12 1/2" block from something in their story. We met as a group, read our stories and showed the first block we created. Then we passed the block, the box of fabric and the story to another person in our group. The next person makes a block from that box, story, fabric etc, and we meet in 1 month and show and tell the blocks and trade to another person. At the end of the rotation we have 9 12 1/2" blocks to make a quilt from. Check out the blocks on the blog!

further down Izzannah Road

I know it looks kinda creepy now.

but I am sure counting on it not turning out terrible!



Rebecca Blank

Update on the Izzannah:

Easter Wishes

Happy Easter to all our

Colorful Waldorf Families

Have a most wonderful Day

filled with many Blessings



First head with clay

Oh my goodness you two. You have been so busy this last week while I was out of commission. I fly home tomorrow night and will be glad to get back in gear again. Just went through the last weeks postings and you two are just too creative. I haven't really even had any knitting time to speak of. I got one baby bootie done this whole week and that is it. Anxious to talk to you both and get back up to speed. Linda

Learning to sculpt is turning out to be very much fun

this is the first layer and then after she dries I will apply another.

whew- lots more steps than the waldorf dolls!

LOL

but just as fun

Izzannah Road

Almost ready to do the clay prep on

these three dolls!

this is what they are supposed look like when completed

(I have 7 hours labor into them already)

This is gonna take awhile.

Blank Betsy!!

Introducing our next Blank Doll named Betsy, like in Betsy Ross! No face as I can't decide on one, but kind of like her still blank.

                                                 Very well done!  is this a wig cap? ........ I like her shoes and pantloons
and ribbons and dress and especially the hair!   LOl

Pleased to introduce Katrina

she needs a nightgown and some fluffy slippers

I think.......

Wispy

she has really fine.... like baby hair.....and not very long.

She should be dressed in baby looking clothes I think. Very Cute!!! Ruth

some other funny ones I have been playing with today

could just paint on the dresses for these babes!

Looking fun here! Love the fabric legs!! Ruth
