beccabags

A new must have - paper dolls ; )

Tomorrow while I will be spending several hours in a hospital waiting room while my Dad is having surgery, I'll be knitting.

Oh, to live in a dolly world with cute little sweaters!!

Be the change you want to see.

Only six days until Harry Potter opens! We can't wait!!

. . . with another name. Why? After I couldn't use beccabags anymore (alleged trademark issue), I briefly entertained Odessa Gypsy Bags. The name was mysterious, but a lot of people gave it the thumbs down. Then I tried to expand mungo.etsy, with the dolly clothes, to include the bags with Mungo Village. Again, sadly no one liked Mungo :(   My co-workers (an openly frank group) let me know in no uncertain terms, it was a bad name. OK. The negative feedback of the name and the economy has taken the fizz out of my bag sewing. Bags parts are in pieces in my studio and bag ideas continue to swirl in my head without an outlet. So, I will try again with www.MyButtonBag.com, to debut in August.

Summer outside projects in the warm, bright sun are on the agenda today.

summer is finally here! yeah :)

Hope everyone is enjoying and remembering this Memorial weekend :)

Adventures with Rit dye was the event in the kitchen today. The dress this Momoko doll is wearing started out white, now it is an ultra cool wine color. It matches perfectly with the mustard yellow color sweater I knit for her too. If only I could dress this nice, ha :) Momoko (I am not good at naming dolls) has made friends with Five the 'family pet dog'. They are buddies since they are the same size.

Another round of tamales!

I love to silk screen! What can I print on next? Images are drying all over my house, waiting to finished into this and that. There just isn't enough hours in a day for all the creative projects I want to do.

I finally got the sleeves in this dress, and it is so cute! Now, only if Blythe had blue/turquoise hair . . .

knitting fun

I love this little dress. If I could only make one in my size. I don't think I have the patience to make one big enough for me, then to find it doesn't fit me ;( This little dress fits Blythe perfect, along with her cool little shoes!

When my dad closed his photo studio, he gave me his big button/mirror maker. It is so fun to cut out images and, viola!- press a mirror. It makes 3.5 inch diameter mirrors. Send me an image, I'll make you a mirror!
