My daughter was in a car accident this morning. The car flipped over. It wasn't pretty.

Some things on my table....(click to enlarge for better view)
This kitty's face is vintage. I bought about 70-100+(in a boxed lot) at the first flea market that I went to as a young Mom. I always wanted to make them into little dolls, but never got to them and sold most of them through the years. I have maybe about 25-35 faces left. They are printed from the 1930's-40's. This cat doll is almost done and has more detail not shown here.
These feet/legs go to the painted girl doll in the first shot for this post. These are vintage black, suede-tte booties, that I bought about 15 years ago.
And this little kitty, was drawn to be a puppy, but looked more cat like. Her face is just sketched in w/a smidge of paint. She needs way more paint.
Just a few things that I am working on............and what are YOU working on???
Oh yeah.........(see last post below)
...the cell phone still isn't right. They gave me a new refurbished phone at my local center. I just thought they could work it a little, but it didn't accept my pictures from my previous phone. Then I get it home and realize that I cannot send or receive picture texts. So, WHY am I spending the money ???
So what do YOU do when you call your wireless company, and you know that you will be on the phone for 45min.-an hr. and a half???
So I got these cute striped socks from American Eagle on sale, and started to cut and sew while on the phone w/3 people from Verizon wireless. We don't always get the best reception out here, but my oldest has almost all her friends w/them, and so it is WAY cheaper as we always talk or text one another .
So I let the stripes dictate the body positioning.
Now the feet are on board.
Can't forget the tail!
...nor the head...
Oh, this other toe cap would make a cute cap. Just need the holes for the ears.The head is positioned in the cap.
Well, need an eye, no?
Let's pin two.
OK- so Serge said a round nose was needed.I love my new scallop edge scissors. They are so much fun cutting these wool felt and wool flowers.
I just love the colors on the body!Had to put him(?) together! Body and paws sewn. He's just pinned together a little.
These are just laying on his face- what he'll actually look like is , right now, a slight mystery, perhaps.
But, he will have some expression, just not sure which at this point. But, he is kinda' cute for a little softee, don't you think?
And see, NO FRUSTRATION!!! for spending 1 hr. and 32 min. on the telephone with my wireless carrier- well, a bit, but it certainly made the time less frustrating:) !

Ocean City- wanna' meet up?....:)
Pictures from last year's trip with the wild horses of
This guy seemed to have been excited by everyone who came by.
This marshy grass is so pretty, especially when you click for a closer look.
We just had to get this shot, although the others were yelling at her so they could get home and probably go out to eat. I mean, really, we just HAD to stop for this shot!!! Wouldn't you?
Hubby called to tell me about Ocrean City between 9-15 July. Friends have once again offered their beautiful place for a few days-just a minute's walk from the beach. We'll go sometime during that time,probably just for 4 days.
