SEWIN' THINGS I'M WORKIN ' ON

FIRST OF ALL I'M LOVIN' MAKIN' THESE PRIM LITTLE
DITTY-BAG PRAIRIE ORNIES.


THIS IS THE FIRST ONE AND IT'S MY FAVORITE
CAUSE I LOVE THE HOMESPUN BLACK/TAN FABRIC.
THE BAG IS MADE FROM MUSLIN AND HAS A
DRAWSTRING OF JUTE TO CLOSE THE BAG.
THEN YOU SEW A POCKET OF YOUR FAVORITE FABRIC ON
THE FRONT WITH A LARGE PRIM STITCH.
THEN I STUFFED THE LITTLE PRIM PRAIRIE ORNIE DOLL
INSIDE... SHE HAS A STITCHED NOSE AND IS
WEARING A MUSLIN BONNET.
AIN'T SHE A CUTIE !!!


CUTIE # 2
WELL HERE IS # TWO

AND HER POCKET IS MADE FROM LISA LIFTICK FABRICK
FROM HONEY -N- ME
IT IS FALL FABRIC OF TAN WITH ORANGE PUMPKINS ON IT.
SHE'S ALMOST MY FAVORITE... BUT NOT QUIET !!
LITTLE PRAIRIE ORNIE IS THE SAME OF ALL OF THEM..
SHE'D GO GOOD IN A FALL ARRANGEMENT.
BETTER GET HER BEFORE SOME OTHER PRIM LOVER DOES.!!

PRAIRIE DITTY BAG # THREE
OH!! I FORGOT TO TELL YOU ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DETAILS OF THE "DITTY-BAG " DOLLS
SO
LISTEN UP... THEY EACH HAVE
TWO OF MY SPECIAL
♥RUSTY SAFETY PINS♥
ON THE BAGS !!
NOW THIS LITTLE SWEETIE HAS ON A DRESS OF LISA LIFTICK
HONEY -N- ME FABRIC AND IT IS JUST SO PRIM !!
THE COLOR IS A RUSTY ORANGE WITH BROWN STARS ALL OVER IT..
DON'T WE PRIM LOVERS JUST LOVE STARS !!!
I KNOW I DO..
SO ON TO THE LAST , BUT NOT LEAST !!


LAST BUT NOT LEAST # FOUR

OH I HATE TO QUIT SHOWIN' BUT THAT'S ALL I HAVE MADE !!
THIS ONE IS THE SAME AS ALL THE REST EXCEPT HER
POCKET IS MADE FROM " YELLER 'N GREEN" FABRIC.
IT IS GREAT FOR SPRING/SUMMER DECOR.

THEY ARE ALL ABOUT THE SAME SIZE RANGING FROM
7 INCHES TALL AND ABOUT 4 INCHES WIDE
