Bears 1~2~3

I'm lost in the woods
and all a lone!
I'm hungry and thirsty
and far from home!
I've come upon an
empty house.
I enter it quietly
as a mouse.
My thirst I quench,
my belly now fed.
I need a place to
lay my head.
Roused from my slumber
I do see!
BEARS! 1~2~3!
All after me!!!
by Flora Thompson

It's that time once more to submit my April doll offering into "The Humble Arts",so I decided to make this sweet Goldilocks and These adorable 3 Bears. The poem is an original.

This is a pattern that I designed from a drawing I did last year.

Where are my arms?



Hung out to dry?




Does anybody know a good hair dresser? I actually gave her two different hair colors that's what gives it the subtle highlights.I'm very please with the outcome.


all together at last!
Please be sure to go see all the lovely creations starting monday.
Blessings,flora

Having spent many hours today trying to remember how to sew, and endeavouring to make a pattern for a toy from one of my own designs, (unsuccessfully) I am just amazed and awed at this. It is such a skilled job.
