1, 2 and 3


Lucky Ginger gets to live in this lovely victorian home...and this is just the first page of the book. 


Patchwork bins from feed sack pieces.


These are a special order for Lynn of Life on the Weenie Ranch.


Sized at 7, 6 and 5 inches they nestle neatly inside one another.


Number order.


Heartbeat stitching.


Vintage buttons to add dimension.


It is hard to let these go but I know that Lynn will love them.


Another version I have worked up. Scraps are for sewing into fabric. I really like the way the linen and feed sacks work together.

First, I'm loving Ginger! We have always been a "cocker spaniel family" only, until my wiener dog joined in! I love that cockers were the dog of choice for vintage illustrations!
Then I'm thinking that I'll eventually want a set of those baskets to hold art supplies.
Probably me and everyone else! What's the waiting list looking like? :)
