    She was toooo fun to make. Got page out of coloring book off internet, then colored her with regular crayons, then went back and did "thread art" (free motion stuff!), then did some colored glitter glue and finally - I need to finish her eyes. Think I'll use dollar store fake eyelashes. AM going to add some little glass beads somewhere! Her actual "eyes" have me stymied.... She is going to live in my friends summer home on the coast of Oregon... Think she'll be happy there?????

    She is the cutest thing I've ever seen! Love your thread art and the glitter is great! Fake eyelashes will charm her up good!! We love it! Thank you for posting. Makes me want to try hard and find that huge box of sequins I stashed somewhere and can't find -lol- and go get my coloring books out!! haha. :D :D
    Yes, she'll fit right in hanging on the wall off the coast of Oregon!! :thumbup:
