Getting Caroline Abbott Ready for Ebay!

 I'm so sorry Julep but Mommy Katie is really

busy trying to get Caroline Abbott

{the newest American Girl doll}

ready for auction on Ebay.

The dollars raised on this auction item

will go directly to the

Westie Foundation of America

which is a non-profit {so I think this

would qualify as a donation for tax purposes}.

 I just whipped up a Party Dress to go with

Caroline.  We'll try to have everything

available for bidding starting on Monday.

 I love this dress and all the crystals I added.

 Caroline Abbott will be going to her

forever home with a wide assortment of

clothing - for every holiday and season

of the year.  Now I have to organize

into groups and take photo's for Ebay.

 Derby can't believe what he's seeing!

This will technically clean out my stash of clothing.

 The tote bag is in the background.

It's the red, green and lime green westie-type dogs.

 Derby loves Caroline ... he may consider bidding

on her.  I think the bidding for this

awesome auction package should begin at 

least at $200.00 ... what do you think?

A simple lap quilt project

in between doll clothing projects

 I'm still learning the art of piecing 6-1/2" blocks

together {not as simple as it looks}.

I love the richness of this quilt top.

 My sister purchased this cheer leading fabric so I

could make something for Jenifer.  I had enough

for two star pillows and a lap quilt - all made

out of nice warm flannel.

Jenifer's two pillows and lap quilt

all fit into this box ... with a little 

effort.  This is the first holiday

gift I wrapped.

I'LL BE DECORATING OUR

CHRISTMAS TREE TODAY.
