Dancing Witch Sisters!



These sisters are just so darn excited that the Halloween season is here!! They thought about celebrating on the TV show Dancing with the Stars, but were rejected because they didn't want to show so much clevage. LOL But they are excited to be dancing around their caldron and singing a merry song!

Miss October 31st PFATT Group Challenge

Oooooo I get excited everytime June rolls around. Not just because summer if offically here, but because the Halloween season has officially begun! My most favorite time of the year! Sewing for Halloween juices up all the creative energies and sends me back to my childhood and simplier times. Simplier because there was no need for worry and costumes were simple. I would always rummage through my Dad's closet when it came close to Trick or Treating and  put on his clothes and shoes, throw on a spooky, old man mask and away we'd go! Candy time! After my sister and I would collect our loot, we'd dump it onto the living room floor and pick out everything we didn't like. Poor dad, he would get all the leftover's we couldn't stand. What thanks for letting us wear his clothes! LOL

I was happy when the idea came up on the PFATT Group that we were going to have another PFATT Tuesday and the theme was going to be Miss October 31st! Caroline Rathburn has been in my head for a while now and was glad when she could finally emerge!


On her way to the Halloween Ball, Caroline met her fate in an automobile accident. Everyone was devastated and decided to make her the "Queen" of the Ball anyway. She was buried in her gown, along with her crown. Little did everyone know, she is still "Queen" of the afterlife!






Here is Caroline's Ebay link if you would like to peek:


You can also search PFATT and see what the other ladies have come up with!


Also wanted to tell you that my Americana and Halloween Star Head dolls are now listed on Etsy!





Here is their link if you would like to see more!


Hope you all have a Primsical Day and Happy Hauntings!

So true!

I received this sentence in an email today and had to share it with you all because it is sooooooo true!!

"When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better."

This made my day, hope it makes yours too!!

Lifeguard Lennie

Hi Everyone!!
Once again, I am late to the party! Life sure has thrown me some curve balls the past year and a half, but by the grace of God, I do believe we are on the right path. Don't wanna bore you with all the details, just happy the rough times are behind us and we can move forward.

On that note, just wanted to share some good news..... a little late! The premiere issue of the magazine "Prims" is out and my doll and I were selected to be in the pages.


Lennie the Lifeguard is on page 121.






I would like to thank the people who made this possible. The Lord above, Stampington & Co., along with Jennifer Jackson, my family and friends and my forever love of dolling. Could not do what I do without the love and support of my worldwide family either! You all rock!

Thanks again and I hope you all have a Primsical Day!

Emily

I finally decided to put Emily up for adoption. She's a very good girl. She doesn't talk back or eat much and she loves dressing up for different holidays. LOL Emily was the pattern model for the March 2010 edition of Soft Dolls & Animals Magazine. She measures 20" tall and is made from aged osnaburg fabric.


I have painted on her face and needle sculpted her nose. Her hair was hand-dyed from a soft, curly mohair. Her dress and jacket are all from companion fabrics with hand-stitching and vintage lace. Emily's headband is removeable, along with her bunny purse.






Here is the auction link if you would like to see more!


Also, don't forget about the Penny Feather Tree Auction! It's going on now thru February 21st!
Here is the link:

The Penny Tree Coming Soon.....

My dear, sweet PFATT friend, Penny McAllister, is battling acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and the girls in the PFATT House are going to have an auction. Over 30 members have made an ornament to go on the feather tree and all proceeds will go to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the Alabama Chapter. The tree and all its ornies should go up for sale the first couple of weeks of February. Most girls have made ornies in Penny's favorites including the color red and polka dots.



As soon as Penny starts to talk, you are drawn into her southern, Alabama drawl. Her quick wit and stories make you cry and laugh at the same time. Penny's pieces of art are recognized all over the world and bring joy to so many who own them!



Here is my offering for this great cause! Stay tuned to see more and hear more about the Penny Feather Tree Auction!!

Hope you are having a Primsical Day!

Happy New Year!!!

Oh My Goodness! I can't believe it's been this long since I updated my blog! I am so sorry! Work has taken me away from everything I love and miss! I am currently working close to full-time in the retail business and this past Christmas season was just crazy! I hope to get back to my passion of sewing and creating very soon.

I hope to have a few auctions to list this evening..... we'll see how that goes! LOL But in the meantime, I have some good news to share! Back in October, I created several pieces for some upcoming magazines. One was for 365 Celebrate! the other for Soft Dolls and one more to be named later.

This is Crystal and she is in the Winter 2009 of 365 Celebrate! Connie Porcher puts together such a wonderful magazine! So much eye candy and lovely pieces for purchase. Thanks Connie for including me in such a great magazine!





Emily is in the covers of the March 2010 issue of Soft Doll Magazine. Another great magazine chalked full of patterns and techniques. This issue should be available by the end of January and includes the pattern for Emily and her bunny purse. Thanks Kelly for letting me and Emily in your magazine!





I hope you all are enjoying the new year and I pray that the worst of times are over and we can all look forward to a prosperous new year!
Primsical Blessings to you all!
Kathy
