Changing Things Up a Bit

Well, I had been working on all those fun pumpkin people when "kaboom!"
my sewing machine (Nellie) got jammed up and stopped working. I was in a panic but good ole Dr. Tim the sewing machine man has her in his shop and she'll be up and running again soon. I have had the same machine since the early 1980s. Nellie is a German PFAFF - they just don't make them like that anymore - she is worth the $135 bucks to get her stitching again. Ouch!
I have started a batch of my mixed media doll ornies while I wait for Nellie. Love the shot of all the silly heads above. Lots of found objects, beads and wire - they are so much fun to make.
Happy Friday
and
 enjoy the weekend!

  1. Love the mixed media dollies.
    I know what you mean about your sewing machine. I've totally worn out three machines. Never had the chance to have a PFAFF. Next machine I may have to make an investment!

    Love all your bewitching dollies! Was up early this a.m. and found your blog post in my email. Was making a witch hat for a shop window and just felt so encouraged and delighted from seeing your creations in this post.
