Whatcha Working On Wednesday?

With Winterfest just one month away,
We are seriously focusing on some big finishes here.
We named the Raggedy dolls...
Suzette
Heidi
Ellen
Mary

The little dollies found themselves downstairs with my other finished items,
 ready and waiting for our local Arts Festival.



Did I tell you about the pumpkins that I made from sweater sleeves?
There will be more about this another day...


And...there's still plenty to do...
like finishing the edges of my crochet washcloths...

Stenciling my mini game boards...

and creating faces on my little rag dolls...

Meanwhile...

Hubby picked up leaves with his lawn mower.

The neighbors across the street have the most beautiful tree in their front yard...
with flame-red leaves.

Notice the trees and bushes in our yard...
One is naked,
One is still green?!!

Sooo...
I have been working on these  Santa Gift Bags a little each day.

I think the buttons for eyes,on the left are too small,
the buttons on the right are too large...

Which ones do you prefer?

Take care,
~Natalie

I'd probably go with the smaller buttons.

Wow! You have been busy!! Hope you have a wonderful show. I have a friend who just did her best show ever this weekend (and she's been at it for years)!! Gives us all hope for a good selling season.

I like the smaller button eyes, too.

I can't believe how many different projects you've done, I'm in awe! I can't wait to hear more about the pumpkins made from sweater sleeves. I'm a big fan of repurposed and upcycled crafts. Most of the items in my Etsy store are recycled in some way.

I've got lots of work to do if I'm going to get involved in any craft shows this year. My husband keeps reminding me of the year that we were finishing projects at 3:00 am the night before a show. Not fun!

Really cute stuff, Natalie! I like the smaller eyes on the Santa.

So many pretties. Love them all Natalie.
I would go with the smaller eyes myself, but then again, I would have to SEW something first.
Love seeing your naked tree's. :)
