The Long Weekend is Over ....

I don't know about you, but I am NOT ready for the weekend to be over.  We didn't do much, just hang around the house, today, my son started to pressure wash the house and wouldn't you know it, it started to storm.  We are supposed to get the rains tonight and tomorrow from the storm that hit the gulf.

I finished up a couple more scarecrows, I had an order for one and did another one, too. These are the Sweet Meadows Farm pattern.  I really enjoy making these guys.  They have the round heads.
 I found this little body laying in the craft room, so I make her some clothes and added her dollie.
 These are the bodies that I got sewn, stufffed and dyed ....
 and this is were I am tonight, the two Santas are what I worked on today, still need the paint the boots on one and make something for them to hold. I am thinking a large stick horse or quilted bag.
 I am finished up this little Christmas scene.

I did work some (alright,, just a little) in the craft room, it looked like a bomb had went off in it.  It is now a little more organized.  Hubby is still complaining that the kitchen table has "stuff" on it. 

Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend and a great "short" week.  Cyndy

    Cyndy,
    You are something else! I have 2 of the same scarecrow bodies made and sitting here for months now. I think I'll convert them to snowmen.
    Hugs,

    Cyndy, Girl you have had to be so busy. I just love those scarecrows. I have that pattern but it looks hard. Haven't given it a try. Any tips you can give me?? And the Santa's are too cute. Heck, I like it all. After our show, you should see my craft room. Second thought, maybe not. Guess that's the first thing on my list when I get home from Vacation. CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN.. Take care and have a great week.
