Back from our break.

Hi I'm just back from a short break.

We decided we would go and have some sun before the winter gets bad, we went

to the Canaries just off of Spain, to an island called Fuertaventura.

This was just outside our apartment  and greeted us every day. It was a lovely relaxing break,just pottering around the beach and checking out the rock pools.

Loads of delicious sea food and lots of Sangria, but its back to the cold and nuckle down to work, ready for Christmas.

Will be back shortly and hopefully be able to put up more pictures

Hugs.

2 New Rag Dolls in my Etsy Shop

 Just listed these 2 Raggedies  in my Etsy shop,

Hope you will pop along and take a look. I have put them in at a reduced price, as I made the last year and they have been packed away , they are still new as they haven't been displayed. Thought it was time they found a new home

I am still working on my child friendly Teddy, should get him finished soon hopefully. Trying to get a ballerina doll finished for my youngest grand-daughter for Christmas, she loves dolls and they have to be pink. Will post her picture when she is finished.

Hope you all have have a great crafty week and get everything done that you set out to do.

New Annie & Andy

 Hi Everybody. These two have been sat patiently waiting for 2weeks for their clothes. Have had to help hubby again its been frantic, delivering parcels and Christmas catalogues to customers. I am glad it is over as it always makes my back hurt and then the arthritis pain starts. But now I can get back to my crafting. and Little Annie & Andy are finally finished. I have just put them in my etsy  shop, hope you can pop along and take a look at them. 

I am now going to have a go at making a child friendly teddy, I think I have got the pattern about right , so hopefully it will only want tweaking a little bit. Cant wait to show you all.

 Hugs.

New Annie

 This is my latest Annie, I have just listed her in my Etsy shop.

She is made from a Raggedy Old Annie's Pattern. I adore Nichole's patterns.

Next ones I am starting are an Annie & Andy, again one of Nichole's. It will soon be time to start thinking about Christmas Annie's, oh which ones to make! I also want to try my hand  at some smaller bears, and a bear for children. Well The stuffing is waiting and its not going to do itself.

Hugs.

This little Boy will be off to his new Mommy Tomorrow.

 Wow today is very windy, it seems we have got the remnants of the Hurricane from the USA. Just thought I would share with you the commission bear I have just finished. He is being called precious my his new mummy.

Precious is really excited he will be flying off to  South Carolina in the USA tomorrow. He cant wait to meet his new family. At the moment he wants me to take more photos, but I have told him it is way too windy and be will get blow away., so he was sulking until he decided he would wrap up a gift to take with him for his Mummy.

Well back too it.  I have now more dolls to make for my Etsy Shop.

Finally Made it Back. Its Been so long.

I Have Finally Made it Back.

I have just popped in quickly to let you know I have finally opened my Etsy shop.

This little girl is for sale. I will hopefully listing daily as I have some more dolls to list.

I have been around once or twice and had a quick look at your blogs, but I shall now have a good look at all your blogs and hopefully talk to you all.

Wow Where did the first 6 months of this year go!!

I made it back at Last!!

Firstly I apologise for neglecting my blog, but this year has just slipped by. It seems as though we have been through everything in the first half of this year, illness, personal problems, hectic work schedules, holidays, you name it we have had to sort it.  I am starting to see the light at the end at last.

Well that bit over the picture at the top is my latest addition to my hug, who I have named Harvey,I bought him off of ebay about a month ago. The only thing I know about him is he is a one of a kind and was hand-made by Hardt Bears. The lady who I bought him from couldn't remember if he had any papers or where she got him from. Hence I bought him for a really knock down price.  I have tried researching Hardt Bears on the Internet and have come up with nothing, If anyone has ever heard anything about Hardt and where they are situated I would love to hear from you.  I have really missed Blog land and have only looked at a few of your blogs over the months hopefully I can now knuckle down an start to join in again.

I am now working on putting together some small bears and dolls and I will then open a shop on Etsy. I will keep you all posted with pictures of work in progress.

Hugs,
