somewhat silent sunday - 02/17/13


i've been very silent this week. i would like to say it is because i have been lost in meditation and reflection. or stitching merily away at some cloth or other. but it would not be true. of course, i would much rather have been thusly engaged than sleeping the days away in an attempt to avoid sore, swollen glands from becoming an all out influenza! sleeping 18 hours a day for the past several days seems to have done the trick. ha!

last night i managed to coax a little spring into last week's snow angel and stitched up an over-dress from a cast-off blouse. she will see more over the next few days, i'm sure...

  3. Joe, I am so sorry you experienced the creeping crud. Take care and I hope you feel better soon. She looks ready for the winter dance in her frock of sky blue. Be well. xo

  4. oh my, the flu has been hitting everyone worldwide, hope you get truly better soon!
    the doll is absolutely lovely;
    perhaps a rather immodest question: what did you use for stuffing?

    1. thank you so much, saskia. and, no, not immodest (though perhaps she may disagree?)...i used cotton wool for stuffing. you have to be a bit more careful so as not to let it be bumpy lumpy, but it has a nice hand to it.
