~Scarecrow Sam~

This is my **NEW** listing for ebay. It is a Wee-Leggins and I love the way Sam turned out. He is my first Scarecrow of the year...last year I only made one. Maybe this will be the only one for the year? I don't know. I have many more ideas rolling around in my head...
All of the add on's are removeable and he has wire inserts in his arms, so he is poseable. I was a bit worried about the "Americana Theme" of him (being a scarecrow and all), but I am very happy with how he finished up. I love the size of these Wee-Leggins!

Well, yesterday the kids had a blast at Chuck E. Cheese...Mom, Dad and Auntie Kim did too! *smirk* We played some, right along with them. We competed against one another on the B. Ball game and a water game as well. It was fun! We also did a bit of school shopping at Burnsville mall. Not enough time thou...we will have to go back sometime before school starts.

Buying for three kids is definately difficult these days. I bought a bunch of school supplies last week too. It adds up way too fast. I tell ya, when I was a kid, we didn't need to buy 2 containers of bacteria wipes to share with the class and a Texas Instr. calculater (appox. $15.00) and a Flash Drive for the computers...that is just the tip of the iceberg! There is lots more that each family needs to provide for their children. Crazy!

Well, for me it was a late night last night, I didn't go to bed till almost 5 a.m. this morning! I have lots to do tonight and my work area looks like a hurricane struck...so Toodles for now. ~Tonya

Hey Tonya!! I love your new dolly! He has such charm!!! I know, it is crazy school supplies and such.. My husband is an elementary school teacher and we spend a FORTUNE to supply his classroom with needfuls and it is never enough!!! The budgets just get chopped every year...They cannot take any field trips this year unless the teachers are willing to pay for the bus etc...Crazy times and a bummer for the kids... Hugs and I am glad all is well in your world! MO

Tonya,
I want to thank you for having me on your link list. I just love how your scarecrow turned out. I purchased some of your halloween patterns from your recent blog sale and some last year from eBay that I hope to start making soon.(Need to finish an embroidery job first.) Hope mine turn out as wondeful as your creations are.
Thanks again.
Cindy
