Today I added a scarf to the Polka dot rabbit . and yesterday I made ANOTHER bigger cat doll [ can't part with the first one ]
and then today I made a rabbit doll .
The cat and rabbit doll each have a spring flower . I painted the daisy and the tulip on .
and then ..... I remembered this little square pillow that I made many years ago . [ early 90's ] . It wasn't under the bed , it was in some drawer .
I like it because I made the little green wool pillow and I embroidered the little flowers on . I painted the running rabbit on muslin and attached it to the pillow with ..... uhm ....
is that called the buttonhole stitch ?
I forget . and I sure don't remember how to do that stitch now . I'll have to drag out the old directions and practice again .

These are WONDERFUL! And, my dear, the scarf was just the right accessory!
the colors are so pretty on the dolls. love those ears....
Sandy you just bedazzle me!!! These are all amazing even though the tuxedo cat is my favorite. I'm a bit bias though since I have a tuxedo cat. :)

I would love to come to your house someday and plunder. You know, go through drawers and boxes looking for treasures. What fun that would be. I think we used to call that particular stitch, a blanket stitch. I love the rabbit's scarf. Too, too cute.
Blanket stitch ! thank you
I have to practice this again >
