ANGEL-MAID

Back to creating dolls,
although I sewed on the plane and on my trip, I seem to never be without a needle and thread
This is Angel-maid, one of the many Christmas Dolls I'll make this season

BACK FROM MY TRAVELS

I spent my birthday at Disney, chasing TinkerBell and dancing on Main Street,
and trying to sneek into the Castle!
My favorite Mermaid
Mickey and his Friends keep guard at the Castle
a late afternoon Ferry Ride
and I flew off to the Midwest
I brought Indian Summer with me
Look Mom, it's a plane, it's a bird, no it's Kaerie Faerie
The old neighborhood was brilliantly dressed up for my visit

My Childhood home, lovely that some things never change
The trees were breath-taking
a visit home always includes the city of Chicago
and the Art Institute of Chicago
relaxing in the gardens on the Lake front
after many hours of viewing historical art
Coming home
My Mother's studio, my favorite place in the house
