BUSY BUSY BUSY.....

I got up yesterday and put a ham in the oven.....then I hung out the clothes...I love the way they smell :)





Then I went to get some strawberries....isn't that a beautiful field of strawberries....and then the close up ....I could eat them right off the vine......and no I didn't pick my own......Then when I got home I made this little keychain....the same lady that did the class on bookmarks also did this class.....
And for dessert we had strawberry shortcake.....that was just the thing to top off the ham....I bake it low and slow..then put pepper vinegar on it ...let the skin brown up......we enjoyed it..

This is what I worked on today..... Linda at http://quiltcookies.blogspot.com/ made some of these cute little flat dolls, she also posted a link to the pattern.....the first picture of the doll is with her little dress on, in the next one you can see the velcro that holds the dress on....this is the only one I had time to make...but I had a lot of fun..I will be making more......
PSALM 86; 12
I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

What a beautiful field of strawberries....are they all your...dessert sure did look good.
Just thanking about the ham has made me hungry. I don't have a place to hang out clothes any more but I do remember how good our sheets always smelled. God Bless Trish

With clothes on the line, strawberries fresh from the field, and a sweet cloth "paper" doll, life is wonderful!

Great photos!

I just saw your posts. You do make beautiful things. I love to see pictures on blogs. Don't get me wrong, I do read everything too.
Now I just found you did the flat dolls from Moda, however, they don't exist anymore, that is the pattern. I've written the lady who made them, actually twice with no reply. I have 4 granddaughters whom o know would love these. I realize these patterns were from 4 years ago this onth, but I was wondering if you still had the patterns?
I made a file in emails to save all patterns with attachments lol. I crochet a lot, but do sew sometimes.
Anyway, I would appreciate any help you can give me. I've been searching for at least 1 month now. You are my last hope.

Thank you very much
