Look What My Honey Made...



Isn't it wonderful???

It's a Cheater Quilt. The background is all hand painted, and the Crow has a button jointed wing. The Sunflower is a separate piece that he painted, quilted and attached to the Painting. I just love it!

It is listed on eBay right now for a beginning bid of $17.77 (which I think is waaaay too low!). Click Here to go to the listing.

You know, I wish we could take better photos! It seems like even though they're okay, like in focus, etc... they could be so much better. What are your photo taking secrets??? I know that many of you have just wonderful photos in your listings, web pages, and blogs. I'd love it if you would share your tips w/ me.

Everyone have a wonderful spring day!

Just workin...

Hello to all! What R U up to today?

Oh.. by the way... THIS IS NOT where you should comment for the giveaway. It's down there below.

I'm working on a kind of oddity for me. It's going to be a pumpkin head doll riding a turtle... I THINK! Sometimes these things evolve strangely and change my plans mid course.



Have you ever seen a turtle out of its shell? I think he is afraid that he'll be going in the soup kettle.


I haven't done any sculpting in quite some time, so this was fun. I don't think it's exactly what I had envisioned, but it'll do.





Still have a LONG way to go, but the journey is pleasant.

God Bless,
Penny

This is a "I MISSED MY 100th POST" GIVEAWAY!!!

... and I feel terrible about it! I guess all the hoop dee doo about Mother's Day distracted me.

Ok... in honor of my 100th post we will do a GIVEAWAY!!!

How about a little Kittie named Joanie?!?



She's small, about 8" tall, and is wearing a darling dress in red toile. She's announcing that "A Joyful Heart is Good Medicine". Very sweet.

Soooo... all you have to do to be entered in the Giveaway is to make a comment on this particular post. Please comment on THIS POST... not any after this one or anywhere else. I appreciate that. In your comment could you tell me what your favorite scripture or hymn is? It would help me to compile what prim collectors like from what you tell me. You will be helping me in some research!!! Thank you!!

I'm sorry but I cannot afford to pay the postage for my international blogger friends. It makes me sad, but I just can't... so Continental USA only please. I'll draw the winning name next Thursday the 21st (May) late in the evening, so the signups for the Giveaway will end on Wednesday, May 20th, 2009 at midnight.

Please make sure that you post an email addy where I can contact you if you are the lucky winner. If you have a blog I can reach you there, but if not and you don't give me an email addy... you LOSE! I won't have any way to let you know... so if you don't give me the email addy or if you don't have a blog...sorry, I'll have to draw another winner's name, and that would be just awful.

Also... if you want to mention my giveaway on your blog, feel free! I won't give you an extra point, or enter you twice or anything...mainly because I have trouble keeping up with simple things like most things in my life let-alone double entries and things...so uh..... well, you know what I mean. LOL

Good luck all. I look forward to sending Joanie Kittie on her way to the winner.

God Bless You all and may He give you an outpouring of JOY!

Penny

PLEASE READ THIS!!! I already have one sweetie who posted without a blog or email! (Colleen, if you read this come back and give me some way to contact you!) Please don't forget to post that info!?!

Happy Mother's Day!

A New Sweetie & Another Hint...

Good day everyone! Was sketching some ideas and/ or plans for dolls and I thought, "Why don't I share this on my blog?". I know I love to see other artist's plans... so here we go.

A New Sweetie...

I was thinking about Fall, the harvest time, pumpkins... and this little cutie popped into my head. Now all I have to do is make her...LOL.



Here is the additional hint to what I hinted originally about a few posts back. Okay, this is kind of silly isn't it?

I want to make an Art Doll.. an honest to goodness beauty. I have made a few in the past, but they take a lot of concentration and time to complete, time that I don't have a lot of. Well, at least I got some planning sketching done.



I was trying to decide what KIND of doll, what CHARACTER, etc. The thought of Elizabeth Bennet (Pride & Prejudice) came to mind. She is so graceful and feminine. I can just picture her in a ball gown.... can't you?



ANYONE HAVE ANY SPARE TIME LYING AROUND that I could borrow????

Wish me luck?

Blessings,
Penny

Up for Adoption..

Good Morning & God Bless You All!

It's a rainy day here in Kansas. God sends this rain for all His good purposes, so who am I to question why?! I'm feeling a bit soggy but Praise Him anyway!!!

I have several (14) dolls listed on eBay right now. Here's three of them. If you want to see the listings, click on their names. If you'd like to see all of my listings, click on the little cutie graphic on the right.

This is Laura May and her little Teddy. She speaks of our God as our fortress!!!




This sweetie is Linda Dee. She's one of my Iddie Biddie Dolls, so she's only about 8" tall. She tells us that 'It is Well, It is Well, With my Soul'.



Now this little pair of Cats are named Tracie Cat & Lottie Iddie Biddie Kittie. Can't you just hear them singing in their little Kittie voices, 'What a friend we have in Jesus...'.



Thanks for stopping by today. I pray that you all have WONDERFUL hours ahead and can find some time to spend with our Lord!

Blessings,
Penny

Can anyone guess what I'll be working on very, very soon?

I'm so excited about it. I hope that I am up to the challenge.

Blessings,
