It is finally the weekend


I am so happy it is the weekend.  Had to work last Saturday so maybe this weekend there will be more time for sewing.  This is a lamp I made a couple of weekends ago.  It is a child's mannequin.  Joyce from http://youngbydesign.blogspot.com/ got it for me.  A children's clothing store was closing by where she works and she got a great deal on it.  Thank you so much Joyce. 


This is what I am working on for the winter swap over at http://stitchingcubbyhole.blogspot.com  We are suppose to keep our partners a secret.  So I figured I could show you since no one knows where it will go.  I am waiting on some buttons from http://hillcreekdesigns.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?  They have the cutest buttons.  I ordered some snow flakes for the eyes I just hope they are small enough??  I will show you more as I finish.


Is the not the cutest panel you have ever seen.  I feel in love with it and knew I just had to have it.  Not sure what I am going to do with it yet but for right now I think I will just admire it.

Hope everyone is having a sun shinny day.
