I have been busy again.....I know, it's about time.  I have had some spare time to finish a few UFO's (Un-Finished Objects).  I hope you enjoy them.  The first one is a doll that I made for my friend who has been diagnosed with her 2nd case of breast cancer.  She has been cancer free for 5 years.  She was so surprised it brought us both to tears.

My Posse Tea Party Project

These ladies were offered to the Posse group and the challange was to use one, two, three or all of them in a setting.  I chose to use all of them and place them in a Tea Party.  They represent the British Isles and France.  My name is Welch, heritage is Scottish, Irish, English and French.  Can you guess which doll is from which country??  Of coarse can you tel the Scotish lady brought some of her home brew?....

MSATMINIDOLLLIST Halloween Contest Grand Prize

Contest:  mSATminiDollList Halloween Contest

The theme: Dancing With The Stars

I chose to re-create the famous dance with Cheryl and her partner "Save a horse, Ride a cowboy" skit.  I always loved their interpretation of the song and when the contest came about I knew what I was going to do.  I had so much fun doing this.  And, guess what...I won the Mirror Ball Trophy Grand Prize.  Woo Hoo.....didn't expect that.  But, was happy to receive it. 

Baby trunk

Since my baby in the family is very young she really hasn't filled up her trunk with a while lot yet.  She does have her dollie, first pair of shoes, baby sweater, new dollie and bunny Uncle Zac got her for Easter.  She has a few other items to put in and will as soon as she has stopped playing/using them such as her baby bottle, rattle, and Christening gown.  Come back at a later time and see what has been added.

My nannie's hope chest is full of items she wants to be near her on her wedding day.  Her grandmother's wedding gown with all of its beads in place, along with her mother's pearls and Aunt Tizzy's veil.  He own new shoes, favorite parfumes, soaps and sache's, a brand new pair of nylon stockings, jewelry fit for a queen, gloves, her grandmother's wedding certificate, and a her mother and father's wedding picture. 

M'Ladies trunk is full of items that she cherrishes such as valentine cards her sweetheart gave her, an old shawl that was her grandmother's, letters from family members far away, baubles that she hides away to ponder over often, material that she made her favorite dress from, feathers from her visit to South American, bells from the sleigh ride an old flame took her on one winter, an old pair of shoes she wore at her first cotillian, and her favorite paper dolls she played with when she was young.
