Meet Miss Cherry,she lost her true love to a tragic pie incident....so what do we do now? Do we eat him? Oh but it looks so good......
Sorry this is a crappy photo,I was in a hurry this morning. She still needs some tears and work on her stem and Im trying to think of a good way to make a pie. Hopefully soon she will be done,Paul has another show this weekend and we have been a little busy with that.Otherwise all is well here I have art spouting out of me at least 9 hours a day lately. I cant wait to show it all to you... I have a ton of free patterns I want to get posted,I just need to scan them.... can you say procrastinate??

I'm so happy!, originally uploaded by noflickr.

I was just mopping my floor thinking how happy Iam and how much I love these days with the girls cleaning and listening to beatles with the house wide open (yay california) I was thinking about what my goal in being a mother has been for the last 20 some years and its this ...your sense of value should come from how you treat people, not what you have or how clean your house is but how you treat every living thing ... I think Ive accomplished that with my children and I hope they pass it on to their children. Iam thankful to my parents and grandparents for giving that to me. :)

Embroidery Patterns

Hi! Ive been recieving questions about my embroidery patterns. when Pauls show is over I plan on having him put them on my website and you can purchase them that way . If youd like to purchase a pattern before then just email me at annieoakleaves@yahoo.com and let me know which ones you want and I will send you a paypal bill for them. Thank you!!

Doll Swap

If you are wondering where I have been part of it has been Pauls show (they extended it out another month yay!) and the other part has been my new addiction. Iam telling you the wealth of information has been totally worth the price of admission. Not only that the ladies there are wonderful and so much inspiration abounds! Iam hosting a dollswap for the workshop hopefully we will see you there !

If you are in the area!

Happy New Year and a shop update!

Hi everyone! How is your new year so far? Mine has been very busy. I spent the afternoon uploading a whole bunch of stuff to the shop,dolls,printed patterns,paintings ect. Im very excited about it. I dont know if you have seen the new issue of Stuffed or not but it is totally inspiring.
Tomarrow my daughters and I are leaving for a few days to see my mother and my sons.My oldest is flying in from D.C. and we are meeting up at my moms. Iam looking forward to it. Even though Im old now theres a comfort I get at my moms house that makes me feel like a kid again. You know what I mean? I will be back in a few days,if you get a chance check out the shop or flickr to see what I have been up to! xoxo
