Franny In Her Feed Sack Frock






I am so excited! I made a doll....After a very long hiatus...I actually got the courage up to make a doll again. I made her especially for the County Fair in my area which will be in just a couple weeks. I dropped her off along with 6 jams I made over the Summer. We shall see if I get a ribbon for anything. Even if I don't win...That's alright too! It was fun to finally accomplish a piece of art. And has refreshed me to want to do more projects. I wanted this doll to represent my quirky side....Franny is funny and quite colorful wearing real vintage feed sack fabrics from the 30's~40's...
I am really happy with how she turned out!

In The Sewing Studio

 We moved into our new home about five months ago and I am finally getting my sewing studio space set up and decorated. I just haven't had time to get it done....Finally decided since school is back in session next week that I probably should start setting up shop and get some stuff made for future shows or selling online. Not really sure as to where I am going to take my goodes...But at least have a goal to get some inventory made.


 Sorry if the pictures are horrible. They are from my phone which were transferred to my Instagram then copied to put on my blog. I think you can get the gist of how it is coming together. I am getting excited to get back to creating after so long....






Over this last weekend I actually sat down with some of my vintage fabrics and vintage feedsack cloth and made some jeweler and a few needle minders. It was great getting my crafty on!!! I also began work on a funky doll which I am entering into the County Fair at the end of the week. I am also bringing a bunch of jams and preserves I made this Summer for judging. Maybe just maybe I will get a ribbon for something.

I still have a bunch of work to do on the doll, in the sewing room and need to finish a couple priority must do's for a couple people. Then I can get this party started! So excited!!!
