It's been a while

So let me get you up to date on what I have been doing.  First - shoveling snow in February!
What a winter in Philadelphia!  I was used to this kind of snow when I lived in upstate NY, but not here.  We are lucky to have very good neighbors who helped clear the snow and to be able to work from home when we couldn't get out of the driveway. I must admit, it was beautiful.....

My niece came to paint our den.  It was great to have her here for a week and she did a great job.



And just recently I made two dolls for friends who are retiring.  Ooh ... I'm jealous - but only about a year and a half for me before I can make dolls and do blog posts full time.

This is Leah's doll.



And this is Aileen's doll.



Both dolls are made from patterns by Jill Maas, a great doll-maker from New Zealand. Check out her wonderful dolls: http://www.slightlyweatheredladies.com/

I am going to make a commitment to do a blog post once a week - see you next week!
