She is by far the most beautiful doll that I own.<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YTSOmGJVyaw/UAcb2gMGuuI/AAAAAAAAAgc/BWVMgJMDDQ4/s1600/100_3255.jpg" imageanchor="1" style=""><img border="0" height="320" width="249" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YTSOmGJVyaw/UAcb2gMGuuI/AAAAAAAAAgc/BWVMgJMDDQ4/s320/100_3255.jpg" /></a>
Her clothing is perfect. I almost hate to undress her, but she'll have the most beautiful clothes I can create for her.
Have a few new patterns coming so I better get to sewing.
Have a great week.Cats Designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07974982207000020022noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872238610360949447.post-43645568536619658392012-06-27T11:35:00.000-07:002012-06-27T11:35:11.553-07:00HI,

I've been busy sewing as fast as my little hands can make them. It seems so hard to get my shop filled as my little dresses sell as fast as I can make them. That's a good thing though! Here's a few more outfits to show you. Hope you like them.Cats Designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07974982207000020022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872238610360949447.post-19034050361423953622012-02-16T15:24:00.000-08:002012-02-16T15:24:44.834-08:00Just finished taking pictures of some more new clothes I've sewn for American Girl dolls.

I started out knitting a sweater for American Girl doll in yellow for this Spring. It's been a awhile since I've knitted, so we'll see how it turns out. I'm not using any pattern just playing it by ear.

There's been some changes going on. I will be getting a new look on my Etsy shop and on here. I've decided to pursue making doll clothes for American Girl dolls. My daughter before Christmas made the comment "you sure like making doll clothes the best Mom, huh?" I thought about it and my answer was yes, I do love making frilly dresses. To my dismay, it wasn't long before my daughters outgrew (6 yrs old) liking dresses and opted for jeans. I started out making doll clothes when I was little, I used material from my Mom's old dresses and the dresses we outgrew, so I guess in my latter years I'm going back to my beginings. So I bought a few patterns and started making some doll dresses put them in my Etsy shop and to my surprise I sold fifteen outfits out of twenty in January. Here are some of the clothes I've made and as I add new ones I will post them here.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-v-eHxhMSUZk/Ty07q7ToKNI/AAAAAAAAAYU/hnWXl0aBrRw/s1600/100_2940.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="320" width="217" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-v-eHxhMSUZk/Ty07q7ToKNI/AAAAAAAAAYU/hnWXl0aBrRw/s320/100_2940.jpg" /></a></div><br />

Making room for new items. I don't know if I'll be painting as much as I have been. It's getting harder to prepare wood because of my health issues. I know I will continue to make dolls and doll clothes for American Girl dolls.<br />

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas.

I know it's been awhile but I haven't been feeling all to well. I have diabetes and I'm not doing to well to keep it under control. Maybe in the new year I can do much better. It's so hard to do when the holidays are upon us and there is too much good food.Cats Designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07974982207000020022noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872238610360949447.post-43604416784923215182011-11-24T03:41:00.000-08:002011-11-24T03:50:50.496-08:00<div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8c2zFGmkz14/Ts4vidGUl9I/AAAAAAAAAXk/LlTTGGbTVOI/s1600/OFG-token-of-thanks.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8c2zFGmkz14/Ts4vidGUl9I/AAAAAAAAAXk/LlTTGGbTVOI/s320/OFG-token-of-thanks.jpg" width="128" /></a></div>The Old Farmhouse Gathering Team is have a token of thanks to our loyal customers.

I've been extra busy making things for my Etsy shop, cleaning out my craft room and I've been sick in between. Will share photos as soon as I can. <br />
<br />
My great grandson turned one year old on Sunday. His parents had a birthday party for him at a park near them. Wasn't able to go because my blood pressure was too high that I actually thought I was having a heart attack or a making of a stroke.<br />
<br />
My TV went out after only being four years old. Thought it was my cable company's fault but it wasn't. I hate spending the amount of money we paid for it just to have it go out in four years. Technician told me that I was lucky that it lasted that long for as much as I watched it. I use to fall asleep with it on, leave it on for my dogs so they wouldn't get lonely when I was out about town and have it on even when I wasn't watching it just so I could have some noise in the house. I forgot about the sales rep telling me that this tv would last 100,000 hours and that it would last for some time. Hah!!! he didn't know me. So I'm out looking for a new tv and you all know I will be shuting my tv down when I'm not watching it. Sometimes I wonder if these flat screen tv's are worth it, my daughters small tv has lasted her for 25 years with no problems.<br />
<br />
Well I have to go for now but will be posting pictures soon.<br />

I love all of Maureen's patterns. She's a country prairie primitive. She looks loved and well worn. I usually don't make real grungy dolls but I think she just turned out beautiful. I'm naming her Laura after the child in "Little House on the Prairie". I loved that show. Wish there was more like it.<br />
<br />
I also finished up a plaque by Terrye French. She's another one of my favorite dedsgner. It's called "To Market". <br />

It's a cute stuffed bear made in lavender.<br />
<br />
Well that's all I made this week. I want to try my hand on one of Maureen's black dolls and a chicken.<br />

</tbody></table>Well here's the pictures of the new dolls I promised. Feeling kind of under the weather so I didn't take the pictures until now. Have a few more dolls to finish up so I hope you will check back often.Cats Designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07974982207000020022noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872238610360949447.post-21089090728161846442011-07-15T11:53:00.000-07:002011-07-15T11:57:47.637-07:00Should Of Stayed.....in bed. Have you ever had one of those days? I just finished one of my dolls and thought the hair needed to be a little shorter when all of a sudden I felt it and I heard it and then you know you cut something more than yarn. I managed to cut through the sleeve of my dolls dress. Ohhh.. I was so mad at myself. Now I'll have to make a new dress. So I decided to go get some lunch and I should of saved my money, the food was awful. Then to make matters worse, I went to pick up my lunch and Max decided he'd have some fun by chewing up my orthodontic insoles. I guess I should of stayed in bed and forgot about crafting.<br />
Anyway I do have two more dolls to share with you after I take their pictures later today.<br />

Abragail measures 18" long. She is wearing a royal blue dress with an apron of red, white and blue flags. She has a red and gold checked hat and carries a star and flag in her arms. Her bag dress has an elastic opening where you can store numerous plastic grocery bags for recycling. I hope you like her! Some lucky winner will recieve a FREE gift.
