Meeting a blogging friend and something she made me!!!!!

As many of you know Jean - Prim Crafts and I only live about 8 miles apart. Lucky me!!!!

We have met , but decided to get together again yesterday. She came over to my hair salon and had her

hair cut. Darn 'I forgot to take pictures. I hope you like your hair cut Jean. Then we went out for lunch.

 But I had asked Jean if she would make me a standing prairie doll. Without hesitations she said yes, Well to

my surprise she made two instead of one, she said they were, "Prairie Sisters" !!!

Look at these dolls, aren't they the cutest ever!! I love them!!!

I love the fabrics Jean has used, I love how this one is standing.

Isn't she the cutest sister!!!

I think they are my new favorite dolls!!!! They look awesome displayed on my old hoosier!!!

Perfectly Prim, thank you Jean from the bottom of my heart, Jean is so beautiful on the inside and outside. She made these for me as a gift. I can't express in words,
how thankful and proud I am of these dolls Jean.
I am so glad we live near each other and hope we get to have many visits.
You other blogger girls just need to move to the Shenandoah Valley to be near Jean.
Please check out her blog, she is one awesome crafter!!!!!!

I love those dolls!! She did an awesome job. I never thought of having one standing, seen bunnies, bears etc but not a doll. I love it!! Your hoosier cabinet looks great, wonderful displays. Love the stars in the cheese box. If it is green and raining I just might leave dry Texas and head your way.8-)
Blessings,
Lorna

Those prairie sisters are so prim perfect Lecia...whata'lucky gal you are! Jean did such an awesome job on them, even the fabric she picked out for there outfits is perfect! I can see why they are now your fav. new dolls.(I too purchased the pattern to make the dolls, but havn't had a chance to try out the pattern yet. I hope when I do, they turn out as awesome as Jean's). How wonderful to have a blog buddy so close by and be able to hang out with from time to time. Sounds like you two gals had a really fun day! Wishing you a wonderful weekend! Hugsss Mary
