TEETHING ISSUES

I made a new soft toy yesterday.
It hasn't come out quite right.
I'm happy with the body, but not the neck or head.

This is what ya get when you don't have a pattern and have never done it before.  It's clearly a work in progress, please don't laugh at it!

ABOVE:  I am going to pull her apart and do a new head/neck.

If I get it right today, I will show you.

Yesterday my hips were so sore after Monday night's walk!  They don't feel so bad today, which is just as well as I  have a walk tonight at 7 pm.  At least this one is a short one, just over 4 kms.  I can do that easily now days!

Who would have thought I would say walking 4 kms is EASY .... like ever?  It's a damn good feeling.

ONWARD...

Started working on the new, improved doll.
Fingers crossed I've got it right this time.

It's so quiet around here. Griffin is at school and Brylee is in bed still.  Dogs are behaving, not fighting which is a good thing.

We've had a LOT of fighting going on lately.  It's been very scary.
I think three dogs is too much now.  We have a massive power struggle going on.
Having to separate them for Coco's safety.

ABOVE: And just when you think it can't get any worse, they go and co-habit nicely.... for a little while anyway.  *sigh*

It's a rather SPECIAL Day for a little boy today, one he's been looking forward to for MONTHS...

ABOVE:  Our youngest grandson, Archer, finally went to KINDY.  I hope he's having a fantastic time.

Right, reveal time.... 2nd attempt at a soft doll is done:

ABOVE:  Well... here is the revised version.
Brylee thinks the head is now too big, but Bex and I thinks she's just fine.
I finished her, stuffed her and then... squealed and hugged her!  I think she's gorgeous.

I decided to do 'fabric hair' instead of wool, as the wool could be pulled out super easy.  I matched the 'hair' with the heart on her chest...too cute!

WELL... that took all of ONE MINUTE to sell her!
And the next one I make is pre-sold as well!
Thanks Kelly!!!

ABOVE: And then..... there were two!  And BOTH are sold.  Yaaa.

These are so much fun to make... and now I've got the pattern made, I can make more. 

Well... another FBG walk done and dusted tonight.  Was a 4.1 km walk, but we kinda forgot the way a bit and ended up walking 4.34 km instead.  Not to worry, it wasn't that much further.

I did get a really nasty hot flush/blood sugar low right at the end though, which wasn't fun.  Felt quite sick, but got home and had something to eat and came right fairly quickly.

Serve me right for not eating something substantial since 11 am this morning.  I really must wise up!

I'm happily watching Coronation Street now... then it will be either : do some more sewing/or bedtime.
