Happy October!

We had a good weekend . . . although it flew by a little too fast and I didn't get as much done at home as I would have liked to - but no complaints.  Actually when I think about it I got a lot done . . . I rearranged the living room, got out a few more Halloween decorations, played some tennis, went out to lunch . . . Sunday I went with Kasey, her mom, and her bridesmaids to look at dresses - so much fun!  The long awaited new season of "Walking Dead" was on Sunday  . . . so of course we had to watch that.  I am nearly finished with another zombie/Halloween doll.  I will probably get pictures of her up tonight.  My zombie doll giveaway is underway . . . and we have over 30 names to choose from - we will pick a name and announce the winner on Saturday. 



Louise & Otus

I'm not sure what I like better about Louise . . . her heart shaped lips, her embroidered bag, or her owl friend Otus.  I had a lot of fun with this detail on this on.  I stitched beads along her bodice, embroidered a winged heart on her bag, made her lips in the shape of a heart - and made her a little owl friend.  She will be for sale in my Etsy shop - clarehelen

 

Louise is a fun loving little doll who loves romance.  She has had her heart broken . . . but she still believes in love and “happily ever after “.  She is very outgoing and loves to be around people, but she sometime just likes to be by herself.  She likes candlelight, daisies, and Earl Grey tea in a fancy teacup.  Her best friend is an owl named Otus . . . He tags along wherever Louise goes.
