Isabelle is made from orange silk velvet so old it was almost impossible to sew. I’m not sure where she’s headed yet; I’m working on cake toppers and she might end up a bride. I’m making one for the Valentine’s window at Johnson along with some other Valentiney birds. We’re going to put it up the end of this week. Christmas got so busy I never really properly photographed the Christmas window. I took a few pictures but wasn’t crazy about any of them. There was lots and lots of paper mache including this cruet:

When I bring it all back here I’m going to photograph and post some of the other things.

    can’t wait to see the new flock of personalities. I love Isabelle in her antique orange velvet. And the way all the creations are placed in the appropriate setting. The slide show most impressive. elaine
