What are U up to Today?

I received requests for a few piggies today. With good sales going on at Kohl's and a 15% additional discount ... I think I got excited to find socks with cuffs =) Check out the cool Tony Hawke sock on the right!

As a member of The Toy Society I randomly leave handmade toys for people to find.

Yesterday I gave a plush piggy to a little girl outside the Hospital Cafeteria with her family, and today I left a Purple Patchwork Bird at the Cancer Center for someone to find.

Plushies are my way of spreading happiness and smiles.

Keep Smiling !!!

New doll series

My latest creation =)
This is Fergus, he is a funny little fellow. He really likes the Rold Gold Everything Bagel pretzels.
I am creating more dolls/toys with his quirkiness that will be available at my etsy store. I hope they don't all like the little pretzel bagels or we will have a problem around here, we shall have to see what gets created =)

I need to find a name for this series of doll, I was thinking Ragged Rag Doll, but they are not very Ragged or Rag like. Any Suggestions?

Pig Day is almost here !!!!!

Did you know that March 1st is Pig Day?
Well you do now, make sure you have a pig to celebrate with.

Plush sock piggies make great friends.

Getting it together

Now that the shows are done for the season, I need to start getting it together. The word "IT" covers a lot though.
Cleaning up the studio, I think a tornado hit in there.
Taking pictures of toys and getting them on Etsy
Finishing up projects
Starting to construct the fun things bouncing around in my head
I'm sure there is more, but I think it is time for a little nap to recuperate from all the shows, maybe that is "it" a bit more sleep.
