Autumn 2008

yo yo pin
This pin doll was inspired by the free ballerina pin doll pattern created by Sandra Corson-Walker	This doll is from a pattern by Elinor Peace Bailey. It is called mini Fadora.

Summer 2008

Nita Butler made this doll for me, she was my swap partner on Glitter Town Dollys. It turned out we both love yo yos, so I made the doll into a necklace. Used the small Clover quick yo yo maker. The tee shirt I got at a bazaar for fifty cents, I added the pink yo yo to it.
	It's so hot and sticky I think I'll just make yo-yos. June 28, 2008 I made the little bag from yo-yos, the third week of August
If you can't bring yourself to throw away a scrap of material you will understand this doll.	Beaded Liberace completed during the heat wave of early June 2008 in NYC

Winter

Inspired by a Barbara Stuart pattern	Crocheted scissors case. I modified an Annie's Attic pattern.
I'm working on the Elinor Peace Bailey Victorian doll	Finished! I bought the two patterns at Pieces Quilt Shop in Renton, Washington. The doll on the left is the Retro Angel, I left off the wings because I thought she was magical enough. On the right is a doll from the Miniature Victorian and Pierrot pattern.
4.75 x 3.5 inch book with pockets on some of the pages.	This pattern adapted from one on Celt's Vintage Crochet site Instead of DMC size 8, South Maid Size 10 and steel crochet hook 5 was used. This is a doll bought at Lot-Less, it is 7 inches high.
Japanese Stab Binding	Stamps by Stampers Anonymous. A page from a fatbook on Paisley and Polka Dots
Beaded mah jong tile pendant Domino Pin	I bought the box at a bazaar at the Van Cortlandt Senior Center, painted it, put the die cut on it. Put a final coat of clear acrylic on it.
