New!!

Been working on a new doll.....had to take a break from the 'hands'. Anyway, he's coming along wonderfully. Don't you think?
He is white with pale blue (that icy mix that snowmen have) a big orange nose (carrot, of course) and a big button smile. He also has pale blue swirls around his head and face (not sure how clear they are in the photo)........I had a little hat, but I didn't like how it looked so I'm gonna try something different.

Will keep you posted....

Back in the swing....

I'm back! I was sick (really awful sick - in bed for a week) and then I had to play catch-up. I finally got to work on my PA's this past weekend......
SkulyLuv and DeeObLow now have hands. Hurray!!
I spent forever (4-5 hours) working on thier hands.
I think they turned out rather well...don't you?
I have two more sets to do and then clothes......

I'll keep you posted!

Georgia Snow!

It's snowing in Georgia!! It's now 9:30pm and the snow is still coming down. It's actually sticking to the roads and ground. I can't believe it actually happened! My cell won't take decent photos in the dark...so I'll have to post some pics tomorrow after the sun comes up......
I wonder if we're gonna have work...hhhmmmmmm.  :)
I can hear kids in the nieghborhood playing in the stuff. It's sticking together really well right now. But it's supposed to get down in the teens tonight so it will be crunchy tomorrow. Ice too, I'm sure.
I'm so excited! It's only snowed once since we moved here and that was 15 years ago.
Off to look out the windows some more.......
