My other crafts

I thought that I would share some of my other crafts with you, and over the years there have been quite a few. I am a crafting junky, as I tell everyone " it's cheaper than therapy".

These are 2 dolls that I made. They are from a pattern called Tiny Tots. The eye are hand stitched and I changed the directions and added movable joints. I made these dolls over 25 years ago. These dolls sit on a shelf in my craft room. In the background is a quilt that I made.

This quilt is one that I made for one of our family reunions. In the blue squares are signatures of all that attended then I traced the kids hand prints and quilted it that way.

This is a quilt that I made to honor my late mother. It was made from hand dyed fabric using a stained glass pattern that I enlarged. I added small gold beads around her head.

This is a quilt that I made from blocks that I received from a birthday block swap I was in. The center block is hand applique (this is one of my favorite types of quilting). On each side of this quilt are three counted cross stitch pictures I made. I replaced all of my store bought pictures with ones that I made and wall quilts.

This is a closeup of one of my counted cross stitch pictures.

This last picture shows another counted cross stitch picture and a ceramic object that I made called "Father Christmas".

I have sooooo many more items but I did not want to bore you.

  3. Margaret, there's no way you could bore me with your crafts. They are lovely. I used to do a lot of other crafts as well; but lately have specialized in paper crafts. Thanks for sharing.
