Cycling Musette Bag





Custom musette bag, with strap to hold snug to body as  needed. Duck cloth. Objects of affection stitched on surface, though know they run deep.

To Celebrate Her New Home


Just put up on the jamb of the garden storage doorway for the photo, but knowing Lilly it will end up in some nook or cranny in her new home.  I must make the right hearts head up the next time, but love swirling up and down has a connotation too.

Party Dress...for Parties and Everyday Spinning




Velvet in favorite color of wearer. Sparklies embedded in fabric.. Spin factor as above. Sequin adorned sash to add further sparkle, though internal and external sparkle of wearer outshines it all.  Best compliment: "Can I wear it now?" on a normal playday. Of course Auntie says "Yes."

The Boy Has A Backbone




Two year old did her own this year....Paul Klee may have a gallery compatriot someday.  Five year old had the same philosopy as last year....one way she is sure to have access to candy is to put A LOT on her Gingerbread person!

Lollipop Holders



Yes, a world dilemma solved. Still working on a few others...
(yes, for pre or mid suck)

Trusty Pasta Assistant


Yes.


NO!


Cutting it very close.

Very easy pasta recipe: 1 cup flour, 1 egg, 1/2 eggshell measure of milk. Mix well.  Let rest for 10 minutes (or dance in your princess costume).  Roll thin. Cut.  You can enlist a trusty pasta assitant, or you can do it solo in less time, but....


Power Player











Fashioned from wool felt, this component "doll" allows one to play Mr. Potato Head like, by "sticking on" various felt "entities" that give a certain "power."  Good listening skills = ears.  Good talking = mouth. Ecetera. The last shot (on wood background) shows what is inside at all times -- brain and heart -- even when the other powers are just hanging around.
