St. Lucia dolls

Hazel saw these dolls at Posie one day - she loves to sit on my lap while I read blogs because she loves the pictures - and asked me to make her some. I was thinking about buying the doll making kit she was selling, but they sold out before I was done thinking so I had to get my supplies at Hobby Lobby. The kit calls for pinking shears to keep the edges of the fabric from fraying, and I don’t have any so I glued felt along the edges - I started with red bias tape but it was incredibly frustrating so there are only 2 done that way.

Most of them are made to look like girls we know - Hazel is the one on the upper left. I sent a few - including the one that looks like her - to Hazel’s cousin Rebecca, I hope she gets them today!

Athfest (Candied Pop Plug)

You may or may not know that I also co-write a music blog called Candied Pop with a couple of guys named James and David. We haven’t exactly been cranking out posts in the last few months but it’s still an active project. Anyway, to top off a busy weekend I went to see Drive-By Truckers at Athfest last night and wrote about it here.
