I haven't posted on my blog for a month now, so many things going on in my life, you know my husband has vascular dementia, Alzheimer's and Parkinsons. He just turned 60 in August so this is very early in his life. Sometimes life just rocks our boat but our Savior promises to be with us and it won't overturn. I am beginning to get back on track. I have so many good things in my life, my family and special, talented and generous, kind blog friends like you. Now you can delete this post after reading it, that is ok with me. I miss your posts so much but I say that so you know you are also missed and not to put any pressure upon you to post on your blog. I hope you and your dear husband are having a wonderful weekend. I still have your things to send to you and they will be showing up in your mailbox soon. Slowly I am getting back on track. Blessings to you! <br />MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727778262833890821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-48636527622364039462011-10-26T00:24:03.918-04:002011-10-26T00:24:03.918-04:00Choir boy daring as all you things.Can you show ho...Choir boy daring as all you things.Can you show how you make crepe ruffle pink on snowwman head you made ...I would love it .Thank's sllvncookie..sllvncookie@aol.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798703653724114154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-61559150118720146722011-10-25T21:33:05.413-04:002011-10-25T21:33:05.413-04:00You have a really neat blog.

Thank you also for showing how his hair is made separately from the face. When I made the witch, I didn't know how to join everything together. One question, do you stitch the hair to the head or use Tacky Glue? Also, did you use a paper punch on the felt to give it the lace effect on the choir robe? Thank you for another cute felt creation. Have a wonderful week!

Loved this! <br /><br />*Your* brother reminds me so much of my eldest son! A world travler from a young age- completely at home in any land- with no fears. Also a similar sense of humor. It still surprises me at times how effortlessly he can trick and "lie" to someone with a strait face and then laugh his head off about it for years. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-28967098325556687052011-10-22T22:40:55.352-04:002011-10-22T22:40:55.352-04:00What a brave young man!What a brave young man!Pieceful Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01866148327344500334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-16963417659803934792011-10-22T22:29:16.972-04:002011-10-22T22:29:16.972-04:00Cute, cute, cute, cute, cute E.

Your choir boy figure reminded me of a Christmas as a child when my mother's Christmas "theme" was choirboys. (she always had a theme) She bought inexpensive plastic boy dolls (about 9" tall)and sewed choir robes (in red) and surplices in white with large white collars. She fashioned a church front from white styrofoam and placed the choirboys on the steps. (There were about 10-12) I have no idea what happened to them but I do have a soldier she made one year when tin soldiers were the "theme". More info than you'd ever want to know, huh? Anyway...your choirboy (holding the word "joy" which is my favortie word)reminded me of my mother.<br />xoxo<br />JoyceScrap for Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198495711815578352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-16467053582903999802011-10-22T17:13:07.074-04:002011-10-22T17:13:07.074-04:00Your choir boy is absolutely angelic, Elizabeth! ...Your choir boy is absolutely angelic, Elizabeth!
