Mailed Giveaway Items Except...

I mailed the items for those of you who won the giveaway. I haven't been able to mail one because I still need Linda's address. So, if Linda is reading this, please send me your address so that I can put the men's slippers in the mail to you.

My Baby Models and WIP Update

I've been sleuthing around the 'Net looking at baby dolls that are approximately newborn size. I actually found a good deal on ebay and ordered one.

That doll I'm going to designate as the boy and the other will be the girl. Here they are:

On Ravelry, one member had a link for errata but it just hooked up to Annie's Attic and when I typed in the pattern info, no information was available. Life is too short and I have too many items on my want-to-do list to stay frustrated with one pattern; so, after frogging, here is what I have:


Got to get busy and "find" my guest room. May be having company from out-of-state next week. Have a great weekend y'all!
