The Factory

Our dining table has become my assembly line for puppies. I don't have time for a proper post, but I can give you a peek into the process that has become my life for the past week.

I'm really looking forward to the craft market, but I must confess that my fingers still hurt from sewing on puppy tails, ears, eyes and noses last night. I've also recruited family members for help. My loving husband took pity on me and stuffed all of the puppies a couple of nights ago. It was a tad difficult for him to get the stuffing into the tiny legs but he did a great job! Yesterday my sister-in-law Michelle (Emmy's mom) got a lesson in making puppies and knocked out two for me while she was here. And my sister-in-law ♥Natalie♥ (Isaiah's mom) has been here many, many times to help me with cutting, ironing, errands and what ever else my nervous mind could imagine for her to do. Thank you all so much! ♥

If anyone is in the Houston area and would like to stop by on Saturday from 10 am – 2 pm, you’re looking for the Mistletoe Market at 6312 Westchester in West U. I'll have Teensy Pins for sale as well as puppies and more... I’d love to meet you!

I wish I could come meet you tomorrow! We have a soccer game and a dinner thing, though, so I won't be able to make the drive up. So sad!

i can relate--i have a bird factory. i love the card you sewed. it's beautiful.

I used to do craft fairs and the whole assembly line thing too. I did tole painting items. I don't paint right now. I enjoy a variety of other creative venues though. I love the colors and the felt you are using! Your pictures are great! I just want to touch those cute little dogs and pincushions! Good luck on your Mistletoe Market fair!

Those puppies are very sweet. The assembly line looks like a whole lot of fun to me! Great photos.

hey you have been busy

I'm really mad about your blog and your works ! And your little felted toys are sooo cute ! I'm dying to learn how you made them all !!! Hugs from Belgium !
