Doll Ten and other capers

So I seem to have committed a Christmas in July red and white doll. Playing candy canes.  Still in search of a shipping package




And here's the next caper, a draft of an idea for a top made from the lovely fabric from Joanne. 


Light not so good, but you can get the gist.


Watch this space. With any luck, a following wind, and the creek don't git up, this may become something. Note all the disclaimers.

    1. Yes, that will be interesting. But it will have a nice drape.

    1. They're looking more and more like a group I'm glad I don't have to take shopping!

  3. Adorable, July is perfect for making holiday things. Saves on scrambling to finish in Novemeber.

    1. Friends of mine with a house at the shore (New Jersey for beach) used to celebrate Christmas in July always, trees, decoration, everything, with shore friends they never saw out of season. To me that's what it is, and I find that people who make things also use the expression for making gifts in summer. Cool!

  4. Yes, it seems Christmas in July has become a 'thing'. I've always thought it was the month to push the panic button if there wasn't enough in the box of Christmas gift makings. This year, it's a July Panic in spades!
