I'm a bit behind on posts so here's the scoop all in one post! So remember that softie doll I was working on? Well I didn't forget about it! I actually "finished" him many weeks ago! But I accidentally left him in my boyfriend's car somehow and only just got him back this weekend. As you can see, he is a bit of a fail. Poor Andre the giant. I didn' leave enough seam allowance so the stitching is coming out. Next time I will know to make him bigger!
I also sent some postcards out for postcrossing last week! I also got a postcard from the Ukraine and a letter from a fellow blogger! Today I got a letter from Russia with beautiful stamps! Is that enough exclamations for you in 3 sentences?!

| One for the Netherlands, Belarus, and Germany! |
 |
| The top one is from the Ukraine with a traditional wedding bread. The second is from Russia. |
 |
| So many wonderful stamps! and all hand cancelled! *swoon* |
 |
| She says the woman on the stamp is me! She must secretly know I love big fancy dresses... |
 |
| She included her address so I think I may send something back! |
Out going today was a Big package for a craft supply swap and a letter to my twin friends from college =)
 |
| Even if it is just a bunch of random magazine pages, it's so much more interesting than a boring brown box! |
 |
| Making use of my crayon scribble envelope! |
Did anyone discover a lovely surprise in their mailbox today?
Haha I love the doll, are you a fan of The Princess Bride?
ReplyDeletePostcrossing is my new addiction, have you got any postcards from the U.K. yet? If not I'd be happy to send you one!
I like the movie but I didn't mean to make it look like him! There's a running theme in my life when making dolls, when I want it to be a girl it turns into a boy. ALWAYS. I haven't gotten any from the UK yet! I can send you one too!
