Who Came First? The Chicken - Egg Question

Was it the Chicken or the Egg? I have been pondering the age old question this week. What do you think?



While pondering I came across this darling fabric in my stash and couldn't help but make the doll clothes you see in the pictures.  This cute set is listed in my Etsyshop now. I think it would make lovely filler for a child's Easter basket. I got out my felting needles and made a tiny chick to go in the pocket. It is very small though. Keep in mind that it is NOT MADE FOR LITTLE ONES who still put toys in their mouth. Also, don't lose the little chick. It would be a tragedy!

The kids are on springbreak. It will be a fun week. No rushing to school, no lunches to make, no activities and sports. No money for a vacation either. But who needs to go away when you have a great imagination?



Now what shall I sew next today?

New Easter Doll

One of my hot selling items last spring was made from another cute kawaii print. It also featured baby animals. This fabric is of the same great linen quality as the lamb fabric. It just feels so nice and crisp - and very natural. I guess what I dislike most about synthetic materials, is that they feel so bad when you touch them. Natural fibers feel just right! Linen is probably my favorite fabric in that respect. Unfortunately I cannot find the yellow chicks fabric on a yellow background any more. It appears to be out of print and has become rare. Please, let me know if you see it somewhere. I did find more of the fabric with a pink background. So the fabric addict in me got the pink "fix" instead. Blushes...
I finished this cute baby doll yesterday. I had a hard time deciding on a name when I was listing her on etsy. Any ideas, suggestions? She has lovely medium brown skin, brown eyes, and soft brown curls. And she wears one of the adorable sweet pink chicks dresses.
