Made by my Mom

I just love clothespin dolls. My Mom gave me TWO more!!!

She said we could get together in September and make some. I haven't been able to figure out how to do them. Most of the patterns I've found on-line are different from the ones my Mom has made. I am entering them into the Lake County Fair - under dolls. Not sure if the judge will consider awarding a ribbon as there are usually a ton of entries in that category.

Pillow is Complete!!!

My Original Design

This is hand stitched -- hand applique. I bought a pillow insert yesterday and hand stitched the last seam shut this a.m. I learned a few lessons along the way. Fabric stretches. Corners are important. Measure everything twice. My first pillow made from fabric!!
