I Am Still Here!!!

Just wanted to share a little of what's been going on around here, well I am designing new spring and Easter items and I wanted to share them with you all. Below is a photo of some of my new items. You can find these cuties over at



My Country Cottage I just listed them under my New Products Page.

This goofy looking chick is a yard stake and he can only be found at one of my shows or my shops listed here: Show Listing Page Sorry he is to big and costly to ship!!!



I have got a lot more coming. I will post again when I have them all done.

My Sis and her family came out for a visit last weekend and all of us girls went out for a movie night. All the guys stood home and played Texas Hold em, that's been our favorite past time.

We've been holding weekly tournaments with family and friends. The group keeps getting larger and larger . It is a lot of fun to play and we have one winner that takes all each time.

We girls saw "He's Just Not That Into You" It was a cute and funny movie we all enjoyed it, including my 7 month old niece.

She had to go with us but since we went to the last showing late night there was just a couple of other people there. She did great she actually sat and watched the movie. We couldn't stop laughing at her, it was so cute. Wish I had a photo to share with you all.

The next morning us girls went out to breakfast and thrift store shopping we just love all the great stuff you can find there. Well we did find a lot, two car fulls of stuff by the end of the day!!!

Oh I almost forgot to mention I just listed some more aprons over at Raggedy Dollys





I am working on my orders right now but thought I should let you know I am still here. Just been a little busy more like very busy!!!

Well it's back to work for me and Thanks for stopping by,

What have I Been Up To?

I just wanted to share what I have been up to lately!!! Well I just finished up a few valentine Annies for you and just listed them over at Raggedy Dollys
Here is a photo of one of my Raggedies her name is Lil Valentina Annie



Isn't she a cutie? I really like how she came out, she is all ready to ship out to you.

Over at My Country Cottage I just listed some cute Valentine signs. Go take a look!!! Here is a photo of the signs.



I know I didn't take a good photo, but I was in a hurry and it was this or nothing.

I've have been busy, here is a photo of the order I am finishing up to ship out tomorrow. I am making an extra Raggedy Bunny Doll and I will be listing her tomorrow.




They still haven't taken there coffee bath yet, that is coming next. I think there a little cold with all the rain we are having here today. So gotta get them dressed real quick. I am sewing there dresses and they should be done soon.

Thought I would take a break from all the work and do a post on my blog it's been a while since my last post. Boy does time fly when you are having fun or in my case creating!!!

If you live in the area I just stocked all my 3 shops with new product so go over and take a look. The address for my shops are on my websites under show Listings.

Bad Bad Blogger!!!

Hi All

I don't even know where to start, I have been so bad at posting here on my blog. I had a very very busy Christmas season. I could barely keep up. So there was no time to post on my blog. Thank You to all my wonderful customers :-)

I want to share with you what I got for Christmas a Brand New HP Computer for Business, it's awesome it goes so fast, I can have multiple windows open and no slow down!!! I just love my new computer and I got a large flat screen monitor to go with it. I was long overdue for a new computer and monitor. My old one was obsolete a long time ago.

Because it is a Business computer I was able to get Windows XP Professional and I didn't have to settle for Vista. I like XP as you can see.

It was also time for a new sewing machine I had a singer for a couple of years and I was not happy with it's performance so I had been asking around all of last year for a good sewing machine. Well I found that the Janome kept coming up as a good quality sewing machine. Everyone that owns one just loves there machine and would use no other. So I bought myself one it arrived the middle of last week.




isn't it nice I think so!!! Now I don't know what to do with my singer, it does really look like a nice machine. I think I will just keep it for a backup I guess.

Back to business I just completed my new Raggedy Dollys Website Go over and take a look and let me know what you think. I felt it was time to seperate my two websites, what better time than now with the start of a new year!!!

It took some time to do but I felt it was well worth it. My new website has so many features my old one didn't have, I just love it. So now you all know what I have been doing with all my time and why I have no new raggedy ann dolls on my website.

I am going to change my other website My Country Cottage next but not until I stock my store with new dollys. I will post as soon as I have some new raggedies on my new website!!!

Gotta go now my Janome is calling, I am having so much fun with my new machine. :-)

Thanks for the visit and letting me ramble on.

Sugar Plum At Pomona Fair Grounds

I just wanted to share a couple of photos of my booth over at the Sugar Plum Arts & Crafts Festival at the Pomona Fair Grounds this weekend. For those of you that could not attend my show.



Sorry the photo below is a little blurred.



I was very happy with my booth setup I think it looked great!!! It took us a total of 7 hours to get it to look like that. It is a big job setting up our display but in the end it is worth every minute of it.

Oh it was a great show for us, but the Sugar Plum Shows are always great for us!!!

Thanks for stopping by for a visit,
Rosalie

Lil Ashlynn

These photos are so cute I just had to share them with you.

This is my granddaughter Ashlynn imitating grandma sitting at my computor with my glasses on. (notice the eyeglasses are upside down) my daughter and I could not stop laughing at how cute she looked.



This one is a closeup of her.



This one she moved my eyeglasses to the top of her head.



This one she was tired of the photo taking and turned her head away from grandma.



Thought you might enjoy seeing these cute photos. Grandchildren are so much fun you never know what they will do next.

Well back to work for me I have another show next week. It's Sugar Plum Arts & Crafts Festival over at the Costa Mesa Fair Grounds. See you there!!!
