the skeletons are out . . .

It's the most wonderful time

of the year!

2021 Zombie Doll Swap . . .

Meet Mirana Mojito!

The theme for this year's zombie doll swap (hosted by Yarnigras Swapper Spot) was cocktails.

One of the cocktails my swap partner listed was a mojito.

What a fun doll to make . . . and I love how she turned out!

As far as cocktails go . . . MIrana Mojito is one of a kind.

She may have rum, and lime, and mint leaves like other mojitos,
but there is something a little bit strange and wonderful about Mirana. 
Maybe it is the way people look at her – like they are not quite sure
they should risk taking a sip . . . maybe it is her urge to bite back when someone does get brave enough to take a drink . . . or maybe it is the dull throb in her head where some crazy bartender stuck a lime wedge that keeps her always a bit on edge. 
Whatever the reason, Mirana prefers to be a little bit strange. 
She has found when she is true to herself . . . that is when she is the happiest.

Of course I had to take her out for a Mojito . . . 

A special thanks to Val for continuing to host this fun swap!

Happy Friday!

 
 

zombie cat . . .

We have a video of my granddaughter Charlotte when she was three years old . . . where she is asking us, "Do you want to be a zombie or a cat?"  We would respond, "a zombie cat."  She would 

shake her head as say no . . . a zombie OR a cat.  We have laughed about this for years.

I found this book on Amazon . . . and finally got around to making a Zombie Cat!

A little morbid . . . maybe.

But I love this cute little zombie cat.

Do you want to be a zombie or a cat?

Oh my dear . . . You can be anything you want to be.

Isn't she lovely?

She started out with a lace jumpsuit . . . that just made me laugh.

From there she had to get all dressed up!

After looking at these pictures again . . . I may have to add some sandals.
