And what the postman brought yesterday !

A row of skellies, not cute at all....
Also from the USA. They have the exact height I need and look nicely dirty. I will give them a good home in my "Highwayman ", I am sure they will like it there.

Look what the postman brought me today

A very sweet little baby that I bought from Debbe Mize (USA), complete with little fists and the tiniest cute ears !
Isn't she ( I have decided it is a she ) lovely ?

UFO became FFO

While stitching at the slippers, I also discovered a piece of 48 hpi silk gauze, that had this house stitched on it.
The stitching had been done, long ago , I had quite forgotten about it. I did not frame it at the time, wanting to use the rest of the gauze for other projects.
OK , so I did that now, I used the rest of the piece for slippers, so no excuse any more : out it went , and washing , and ironing ( oh yesssss dears, I iron them ,at the wrong side , always !!! ) and framing .

I just stuck it into ( or behind , if I am honest ) the frame. It looks black , but is dark ( very dark ) green, the color they use for old-fashioned doors here.
Hurray , nother UFO ( Un Finished Object ) has been promoted to the status of FFO ( Finally Finished Object ) !!!!
