Watching and making

My creation

Yesterday I was glued to the television as history was being made. I'm not much of a T.V watcher but this was something I felt I just couldn't miss. So while I watched and listened I kept my hands busy with a little bit of sewing. I made a few of these reversible denim bags. So easy and fun, they'll come in handy for library books and trips to the pool. But my favorite is what we used to call a "Babushka" doll. I designed her face and printed it and then gave her a little Jelly Bean Body. I can see more of these on the horizon. They will be great to use for future Toy Society toy drops.

  2. Aren't you all kinds of crafty!
    Love that bag. And the dolly is so sweet.
    I tried to knit while I watched yesterday, but I couldn't see through the tears of happiness and relief.

  6. Your babushka doll is very cute. I used to be kind of crafty, but never in a sewing kind of way - can't sew a straight seam to save me.
