AnnieT,did you embroider the dolly aprons for the Miss Frannie's class or for other dolls. I was just wondering,as to the size, not knowing the size fo Frannie's dolls. Does that make sense?

Julia, if you go back thru this thread and find the photo Frannie posted of her dolly aprons, she mentions somewhere that she makes hers about 5" x 7". I did my big one a lot bigger, and the others are about 6x8 or 7x9 so I'll have some extra to work with.

Jenn, You're probably fine. Frannie went to Ohio this morning for a week, so you might not hear back from her for a while. She says "class" will start on the 25th, I believe.

thanks sue .. i did get on the family computer in ohio .. was a little 'a-feared' too .. cuz' last time i did that .. my machine at home 'froze up' .. but probably one had nothing to do with the t'other! i love when women who never thought they'd make a doll ... make one and fall in love with dollmaking! can't be too many dollies in this 'ole world!

Hi Frannie,
I tea dyed my muslin and osnaberg over the weekend. Husband walked by the huge pot full of tea and just said, "Is this another hobby?" He's so cute. He lives with my projects all over the place. Can't wait to get started. Yeah!!

I embroidered some aprons for my dollies. One has a crow on a branch. around it says Blessing to Thee. One says "Plant seeds,Pull weeds,Grow love." the other says "There's a song in my heart". Actually, the heart is embroidered. So, I am ready to go! Can't wait! Thanks again Miss Frannie and welcome home!

I am so looking forward to starting my dollie. I have some of my supplies already and I have more fabric than I need so I'm going to pick through it and find some for her clothes. My daughter said she would try one with me , YAY.
Frannie glad your back, can't wait for the email with the pattern.
