Do you know....

Has anyone ever seen this pattern for sale. Or do you know if it is available as a pattern.  I saw this picture on facebook and the person who posted it is looking for it as well.  I've looked everywhere that I can think of and haven't been able to locate it.  Maybe there isn't a pattern, I don't really know.  It is a fantastic design "who ever made it".  Just love it's uniqueness.  Let me know if you've ever seen it or happened upon it.

Sneak Peak....

I thought I'd give you a sneak peak at one of the items that I've almost completed.
This is Prissy Sue, I still have to put on her hat, face "so to speak", and her dress "oops, don't look".....This is another pattern from Sassafras Hill. You'd think I like her patterns....and yes, I certainly do.
  

Pins and needles

Here kitty, kitty...  I just loved making this pattern from Sassafras Hill.  It's very easy.  I'm hoping to make a few more.  I'll be stitching and stitching this weekend.  I made the body and pocket from osnaburg and the pin cushion using a homespun fabric.  There is a grunged tag attached some old buttons and pins for added fun.  I made my tape measure for the front pocket by scanning mine and then printing it onto fabric.  It came out very nice if I say so myself.  I hope you like my kitty.

It's been awhile....

Sorry I haven't been around lately.  Will have some pictures for you soon so that you can see what I've been up to. I've been sewing, and been junking and I can't wait to show you what I have. I've been working on a few things for the November show.  Yup, it's going to take me that long to have enough things done for a 3 day show.  I have a lot of work ahead of me.  I'm excited but at the same time scared, what have I gotten my self into??????  Am I crazy, probably, but I'll get over it.  I've been keeping up with everyones blogs even though I haven't posted anything on mine.  I enjoy reading all your posts and looking at your pictures.
I"ll give you a hint on what I've been making, "bodies" and one of them I've decided to finish. Her head, arms and legs are painted, and skirt is currently hanging to dry.  I'm anxious to get her done so that I can show her to you, probably this week.. Keep a look out. Bye for now!!!!

Shame on those who commit design theft....

While blog hopping today I came across Soft in the Head and a post from February 10, 2011.  It seems that one of her designs has been copied and the person selling the design sold it as their own.  This is very sad and I should hope this person would have enough of a conscience to apologize for what they have done.  I won't post the website on my blog as Soft in the Head has posted it on theirs.  Please go to Soft in the Head and read her post and take the time to leave a comment in support of design theft. Those with the talent to make their own designs have the right to expect that their designs not be copied.  All I can say is shame on you...you know who you are!!!!
