Goodness....time is certainly very occupied for me lately. I have (as mentioned before) started the various medical stuff. Still waiting for the surgeon to schedule my foot procedure. Murphy begins his training on Monday.... to be a fly on the wall is what my sis Lyn said! In the meantime I am keeping busy with Ann Wood's patterns. Totally enjoying the hand stitching.
Meet Mr. Socks...Ann's name for the pattern. I shall call him Tom! Tom measures a mere 6 inches. It is a pleasure to use her patterns...really. Well drawn and well written with plenty of pictures. Her tutorials on her site are great too. Getting ready for another creation.Here is a hint....Baa Baa....
Another Tiny doll has moved in. Before you know it there will be a village here! They are about 6 inches tall. I had fun making the straw hat. I made my own top pattern for under the coveralls. It was simple enough. She is ready to help in the garden. Looking forward to making the next one. I do have one to make but not a Tiny Doll...maybe later today.
Our Arizona weather is still growing season. The Snail vine is flourishing and the Violas are so delicate. There are still many tomatoes to pick and some to ripen. Nothing like picking a tomato and popping in your mouth....yum.
Lisa and Alan brought me a gift from there get-away...
It is a Wish/Dream jar. Made in the Raku finish, it is lovely. I have not added any notes to it yet, but soon. I love it.
Thank you for your good thoughts re: my tests. Nice to know I have them! We all need special thoughts now and again.
Time to return to the Olympics..... are you watching them? It has been nice having you visit. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship. Hugs to all of you💓

I love Tom! And both the dolls. :)
I am praying for you dear Gracie.
Love your pansies. They are my favorite flower.
Tom is so sweet .
Put me on your pray list to .
Take care sweet friend.
Tom is adorable! As is the Doll couple. I'm sure you're getting the wind down there today to usher in the new storm. Hope you get rain, were expecting snow but just 3 or 4 inches. Take care!
What's a wish jar? I've not heard of that before. I like the look, quite decorative. Your dolls are cute. What will you do with them all when you have them all completed? Must have missed reading that you were going to have foot surgery. Hope it's not too serious and that you heal quickly. Will you need therapy afterwards? Hope you're not laid up too long.
