Okay, sounds like we are all busy making dolls of all sorts! We are so excited. Does anyone remember in the 80s a lot of people were making those country rabbits with the long ears...most were made of muslin? I am looking for a similar pattern with cows and chicken/roosters and pigs. Does anyone have one i can buy borrow or barter or know of where i can find one? This is not for the swap, but i thought you gals might have what i am looking for. Let me know.
Thanks, Jess |

Frannie emailed me. She IS participating and I've sent her info to her partner, but she wanted me to tell everyone that she is having trouble with her internet and won't be online for a bit until they can get it fixed.

Hello Girls, You girls put me to shame. I started my doll today and both my machines are acting up. I spent two hours trying to sew the body together and 90 minutes of that time was trying to find the problem. I need some prayer support out there.

Thanks going out to Judith!
Recieved the dolly today and the dream pillow and notepad..everything was just darling!And I loved the handmade card with sheep on it and tartan print.
The doll is absolutely adorable..you really put me to shame girlfriend. ...you did lovely work.
I'll post a photo soon for the gals to see.
So cute...gals the doll has a light pastel yellow bonnet, a red crocheted shawl made from wool that Judith spun herself, yellow blouse with vintage lace trim, an apron that says"farmgirl at heart" and trimmed with vintage yellow rick rack, the doll even has an embroidered heart stitched on her chest, her skirt is made of 3 colors of gingham checks(green, blue, red)
, and she wears bloomers, and holds a basket with a garden tool attached.So adorable.and named "Rose Ellen"
This was alot of fun, and what gal...doesn't like a charming hand made doll?
Thanks again Judith..I will proudly display her in my home.

Tina is too kind! I received my sweet Sally Mander from her last week and so Rose Ellen and Sally were able to play over the weekend until Rose could get to the train on Monday. Sally has a straw hat and pink flowers in her pocket and she came with zinnia seeds, from Tina's garden to mine, and a lovely handkerchief, some bags of my favorite tea and some other goodies. Sally also is dressed in autumn colors and autumn is my favorite season! How did Tina know?!?
Erin, this has been too fun...thanks so much for organizing it!
Farmgirl Hugs! Judith
