What happened to Spring???

Miss Aggie & new bunny doll
After doing all those cutsie dolls in the last batch, I just had to make some "not so cute" prim stuff, so Aggie and the Americana bunny rabbit came to be. :)
See more photos of them (and of course you can even purchase them) in my etsy shoppe.

More dolls finished!
They're both for sale in my etsy shoppe at www.PriviesAndPrims.etsy.com
You could also click on the photos themselves to go right to that item.
My next projects will be dolls that are more primitive rather than cutsie. Be watching for them later this week.
Sassy Sally has been adopted and is on the way to her new home in Maryland to join her long lost sister that was adopted by the same sweet lady last year. Enjoy your new home Sally!
Spring is coming soon!!! I don't know about you, but I'm ready to see some pretty flowers and greenery in the mountains.

Forgotten Treasures~~~
In this first photo, you'll see some great baskets. I'm not really a basket person, but I've got plans for some of these. I've got another vision. :)
Also, see the watermelon placemat? It's like a braided rug, but the size of a placemat. I bought that to use as part of a display. Three vintage hankies will make their way into my store after they're washed and ironed. And a really cool find was some old pink leather ballet slippers! They are well worn and perfect for a prim ballerina doll. Gotta have vision!
Nothing in this photo was more than $1.00.
Next photo is a great quilt piece that I was lucky enough to find. I'll use it for display also. It's all made of flannel with 2" squares. I love it! And, it was only $1.00!!!
Also found a vintage metal recipe box. No family recipes, but still cool. :) It's for sale in my store for $5.00.
My last photo for today is a primitive Americana Crow and Pear penny rug tablerunner that I'm working on. I got all the stitching finished today and now I just have to sew the backing on, attach the pennies, and stitch around the border. The background fabric is quilted muslin. Look for it in my etsy store soon!

Girl's Day Out found treasures!
And, since all clothing was 1/2 price, this ugly sweater only cost me $3.00. What a bargain!

Finished a bunny!
It's made from a Chestnut Junction pattern. Her patterns are soooo easy and so cute. I just love them all, but this has to be one of my favorites. If you're a doll maker, be sure and visit her site for patterns. www.chestnutjunction.com

Baby it's cold outside!
So, what do we do when it snows all day and we can't go anywhere? I stay in jammies and work on dolls. Lots of dolls. Many, many dolls. I think there are 19 to be exact. Some are bunnies. Some are prim dolls, some are cutesy dolls. Some have found their arms and legs, and some are still searching. They will all be united by the end of this snowy day. :) Then, the faces and hair will start appearing.
I like to do things assembly line style, and this time I think I may have overdone it! I'll be posting them in etsy as I get them finished, so be watching!
Here's a group photo.
Stay warm everyone!
