WOW...I can't believe it has been a month since I last posted. It has been a little crazy here with my "real" job. I have a big (it may have a 5 and an 0 in it) birthday on the horizon. To ease my pain, I commissioned a doll quilt to be made by Carol (mamacjt)

I became familiar with her work in the doll swaps in which I have been a participant. She is soooo talented! Check out her work here

She is also well-liked...a group of quilters recently finished a quilt for her...check it out here

I am totally in awe of her talent....she makes everything look effortless!
Here is the quilt she made me!

| No wrinkles..no dark circles...I wish I really did look this fresh faced! |
 |
| I have changed my hair color since this was made LOL! I would totally wear a necklace like that! |
She did a great job of smoothing my wrinkles, getting rid of my dark under eye circles, deleting my double chin....I feel like I have been airbrushed!
Thank you so much Carol! I love it...I love all of your work!
In sending me the quilt, you said "I hope you love yourself" and I can say "I do! I do!"
Halloween is just around the corner....I love October especially Halloween! Here is a mug rug I made for a swap which was mailed on Friday....

Now...I'm off to finish my 2nd mug rug for our DMQG meeting on Thursday...and I have a Doll Quilt that must be mailed by the 23rd...Yikes!
Finally...I think my husband has brainwashed our dog!
