I just can't seem to find the time to post consistently!
I finished my little romanian project and ended up sending 7 dolls this last christmas.
While I have more dolls to work on this year I am going to work on finding warm clothes to send, the children always need clothes and I think I will have a great time gathering clothes and perhaps even making a few.

Ok I have some pictures up!

Truly I am not an internet dummy,I even used to have my own website, of course I used dream weaver but still this took forever to figure out how to post a picture!
The Dora Dolls are all completed dressed and ready to go, packed and everything.
Worked on some pj's for a Disney Doll last night no more sewing for a while for me though, too many festivities!
Happy 4th of July!

Still don't have the picture thing figured out!
Sigh this blogger thing always says it's upload the photo and the photos are in a picasa account but they don't show up.
Oh well, I finally finished sewing my little girls green sweaters, I am not making any more sweaters I had way too much trouble with them stretching out.
I really have to do an inventory of what I have made to figure what I still need to make for the girls.
I am getting quite the KELLY collections, I have like 4 real Kellys and 1 fake kelly(she's a well made fake though not hollow bodied).
Well off to get the day going.

Sewing for the tiny girls is tough!
From clothes for romania |
Ok so I have been merrily sewing along for Dora and the Little Disney Princesses and you know doing a pretty good job, not a lot of problems.
So I decided that my new Barbie need a dress, sheesh it took me forever to get a dress sewn for her!
She finally has a dress, no picture I'll try to do that this weekend.
Today's picture is Miss Cinderella modeling one of her outfits.
I love this little jacket, the hat and scarf was crocheted my a friend of mine named Rose, she really looks adorable(she borrowed the jeans they do not really fit her!)
Going to be a really good day!

I promise pictures are coming!
I do have pictures and if I cannot get any posted today I will post some early next week I promise.
No sewing yesterday I didn't get home until 10:20pm last night.
I did the board for a couple of basketball games last night.
Oh yeah I work for a radio station and during remote events we generally have someone there at the station that gets the DJ on the air and controls the station manually.
Most of the time the computer takes care of running the songs and commercials all the DJ has to do is just talk and push some buttons.
Of course the second game went into overtime so I was there later than normal, but since you need to have split second timing to control what's on the air, you need to stay close to the computer and pay attention, so no time to post any pictures.
and yes I get to DJ from time to time, it is fun being on the radio. it can be exhausting though, since you need to concentrate on what buttons to push and what to say etc, it's a mental exhaustion.
Ok back to regularly scheduled programming!

today will be busy
If I have a chance I will post some pictures.
After church I came home and fixed up a photography area in my sewing room, I used some navy crushed velvet for the backdrop and an old sewing machine for the table.
I got some pictures of Cindy, Arial the un-named baby and I think even Dora snuck in there.
You know that Dora is really growing on me.. good thing I have three. Al least one will be able to comfort me when the other girls go!

No Sewing Yesterday
Ok so the only sewing I did yesterday was sewing a couple of arms seams in a sweater for the dolly, I spent the rest of the time I had yesterday morning searching for some water soluble stabilizer that I knew I had. SIGH...took forever to find.
When I had time last night I took the now found stabilizer and cut a strip off the top.
Then I noticed the flip flops setting on my sewing machine and since I really wanted to watch the rest of the biggest loser, I decided to finish the flips flops. SO that'll be the end of my sewing till at least Friday or Maybe even Saturday.
When I figure out how to post pictures to the blog I'll add those later, of course I need to take pictures this weekend.
SIGH.. I'll just add that to the list, and a big thanks to Dorrie for the link to the American Girl patterns, I am printing those out.
Dorrie I am pretty sure that if you print them at 85% that they should fit the LDP's girls.
I have taken patterns for the American Girl dolls and made copies at 85% and usually they fit, it really depends of the ease you want in the garment, some things need to be 80%.
