MY WORK, ETC ETC ETC............

This is Flutter Rose and Delphine Rose.   I'm teaching her at AFIC 2011  http://artisticfiguresincloth.com/

I want to say a bit about my creations.  I love creating dolls in all kinds of mediums.  My dolls tell me what they want to be and therefore I create them how they want. :-)  I know that sounds crazy but it's not, believe me it's not; just ask any dollmaker. LOL!!   That's the fun part about creating;Not knowing how the doll is really going to turn out after you are finished.  They change their mind through out the creating process.  Yes, they do have a mind of their own even though it's coming from your own mind.  Things do change in midstream.  That's the fun of it all.   I'm teaching Delphine Rose at AFIC also.  She's a FUN doll for beginners to advance. Lots and Lots of FUN MAKING "Flutter Rose" and "Delphine Rose"

NOT TO WORRY, if you take my class at AFIC I will walk you right through it and you will love making your doll.

CLOSE UP OF FLUTTER ROSE

Ms. Peacock is a doll I have been working on since 2010. I had to stop and go on to other creations.  She is almost finished. She now has skin color on her neck and chest area but NOT IN THIS PIC.  I am trying to decide if I want to put arms/hands on her.  I'm thinking very seriously about putting arms/hands on her.  She will have to wait until sometime in March or April before she gets finished.  Lots on my plate right now to work on her.  Obligations have to come first. :-) 

Hope you enjoy looking at my creations and reading my blog.  I will be off to Texas again in the morning.
Will have a computer so I can read my emails, etc.  Like I said, before I'm in Texas more than I'm at home this year. LOL LOL!!!

WOW! IT IS A NEW YEAR!!

WOW! is right !  IT IS A NEW YEAR and I'm behind on catching up with the New Year.  I hope this doesn't indicate that I'm going to be behind all year. :-)   NOT!! I'm going to do my best to see that I don't get so far behind in this New Year 2011. :-)

I've been out of town alot and sick with sinus infections.  It's been a week now and I'm still not myself.  I'm on meds and staying home and getting lots of liquids and rest.  Yes, I went to the doctor. :-)   I'm starting to feel like doing some things. CAN'T KEEP A DOLL MAKER DOWN FOR LONG!!  I have lots of stuff I want and need to do.  Lots going on in my life right now. Good stuff! 

I wanted to let y'all know that I'm still here.  I will tell more at a later date about what else is going on in my life.  For now everything is good except having this awful sinus infection.

Hope your New Year is starting out wonderful.  Mine started out wonderful except having sinus infection.  Was in the Dallas area over a week ago when they had the below temps, ice and snow.  It was COLD! and I do mean COLD!  Was there during the Super Bowl but didn't go to it.  Watched it on TV with the kids and friends.  It was the COLDEST it had been in 20 years in Dallas.  It had to wait for us to arrive to show us how cold it can get in Dallas area. LOL LOL!!!  That's OK, I still LOVE TEXAS.  

Well, it's Sunday and I got up early to take meds and eat breakfast.  I curled up in the recliner and watched Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friends.  Love the old movies.  I guess it's because I used to watch them with my Mother when I was little.  I still love watching the old movies.

My grandson Cain is sick and running a fever.  Poor baby.  He lives here in Vegas.  Wish I could go see him but can't.  Don't want what he has and I'm sure he doesn't want what I have (I don't think you can sinus infections. :-)   I have no fever but sure have felt ughy!! Feel better today and hope to feeling 100% after all meds are gone. I'm taking 4-500mg of  Amoxicillina per day for 10 days! WOW! That's 2000mg a day.  I should be well soon; You Think. LOL!  Still have 6 days to go.

Going to stop rattling on and on and going to go back and watch old movies. :-)   Just wanted to let y'all know I'm still here.
