Feb. 15th 2007 MEOW The Mouse Connection I am teaching 3D machine embroidery

That should keep me out of trouble for a while.

I have designed Dottie which is a machine embroidery doll that can be made into a doll or used as a stand alone embroidery design for quilt blocks or just embellishments. Dottie is in 17 different outfits and I have hopes to design accessories for her like purse or even cat or dog for her to have along.

I made 2 Canarby Cat dolls for an exchange and 1 polymer clay face for another exchange. I really love making things to send away because this house is getting full of my play things :o)

I managed to get the last of 10 charity quilts quilted and put together a quilt "French Braid" and have it ready to quilt when I get back from vacation.

Along with all that I am getting the motor home ready for a week of fun and play.

My intention when I first set this up was to try to journal my activities but they are so much fun that I am too tired to type when it gets to be 10:00 pm or so and I just goto bed. I wake up at 5 everyday.
