Very Hungry Caterpillar, Angelina and dollies

I can't believe how quickly time passes and that it has been so long. Time sure flies when life is zooming by! The Dallas quilt show, Freaky Friday and Easter just flew by. The show was really beautiful and the guild did a super job, as usual. There were some beautiful quilts and some interesting quilts too. We were busy in our booth demoing the yo-yo makers. I am working on a mini yo-yo quilt for the American Girl doll bed at the shop. It is looking really cute! The yo-yos are about the size of a nickle.
Last week we received the CUTEST fabric. The Very Hungry Caterpillar panel and coordinates arrived. They are just beautiful just like the photos in the book. It is going really quickly with several shoppers getting 2, 3 and more of the panel. Joan is working on a really cute model and we have already ordered more of the fabric.


We had a fun time making our embellished dolls last month and this coming Friday (just 2 days away!!! April 4) we are going to work with Angelina. Below are some of the interesting dolls that were made in our class last month. There seemed to be a slight fascination with cleavage. Some used the felted wool for the heads and others used photos from magazines. Unfortunately some of the photos were too blurry to use.


Juanita brought here absolutely precious fiber charm bracelet. I have to admit to being green with envy. I want one too! She was in an on line group that did the swap. Uh-oh, I think I feel another swap coming on!
