Spring is coming...

I can feel it in the air. Spring is on the way. As much as I love spring,  I don't care much for the springing forward of the clock. It makes people grumpy. I read in the newspaper that it's actually not good for our health. Supposedly heart attacks go up by 21% with the changing of the clocks.  Are you a fan of daylight saving time?

Well my day started with a very grumpy teenager around here...A trying morning. But now everyone is gone and I am enjoying the peace of my little studio. When stressed out, creating new dolls is the best therapy.

I realized it's been a long time since I made a little felted leaf buddy. I found two little pre-cut felt leaves waiting in my basket. I must have cut them out a long time ago. So all I needed to do is transform them into little cozy beds for the dolls.

Then the peaceful work was interrupted again. Just one of those days. Teenage boy forgot something. Another trip to school to bring the forgotten items. Oh well.

It was good to come back and finish the little ones you see in the pictures. I'd say a very productive morning - against all odds.

More Bunnies...

Zwischen Berg und tiefem tiefem Tal
Sassen einst zwei Hasen
Frassen ab das gruene gruene Gras
bis auf den Rasen

Between mountain and a deep deep valley
Once sat two little bunnies
Eating the green green grass
Down to the lawn...

I will spare you the rest of the story. German childrens' song are often quite brutal. As I recall in the next scene/stanza two hunters turn up and shoot the poor bunnies...I hope this will not be the fate of my little critters. Sigh!

I have been in a bit of a bunny making frenzy over here. No time to talk. Got to make bunnies. My husband says if this continues he will turn into the hunter from that story...They don't chew the vegetation but he is tired of them chewing up all my time. LOL

New Bunny Dresses...

Can you say cute, cuter, cutest?

My kids are mad because I have been making these cute little bunnies and they want to keep them...

I found this perfect fabric for Easter. It is cute beyond words!

How about the yellow colorway? I can't decide what color I like better. The yellow is sunny and bright like a spring flower. The pink is sweet and girlish. Please vote on your favorite color! And what bunny color do you favor: White or brown?

New Shoes for the Dollies

I have been working on some new shoes for my dolls. I think Imelda Marcos would be jealleous...
