Two wild and crazy girls
Ethel
Gert, her nose isn't wrinkled in real life.This afternoon I had so much to do, but didn't feel like doing any of it. Ever get that way? It was warm and cozy in my sewing room so I decided to give it a straighten and clean. I have one more sewing commitment for this year and decided I should get ready for that.
All these lovely bright scraps were left over from my orange quiltie squares. Hmmm... what to do, what to do? I decided a few snippet dolls were in order. These two lovely ladies just sort of sewed them selves. I used the left over yo yo's I had made as flowers in the quilt to give the smaller one a flapper type hat, and to decorate their dresses. I love their bright colors! I think one might be going to Connecticut to brighten a friends Studio. She was so generous to make a lovely doll to brighten my life when I broke my foot.
