Greetings! Tomorrow is the last day of Lucia's school, and I am incredulous. There are times when I just want to catch her and hold her. Other times, I've cheerfully scooted her out the door so I could get some work done.
In May, we attended The Magic Flute as a family, and I was inspired to create Papageno and Papagena dolls for the shop:
I decided I wanted a series of dolls at lower price points, too, so I created six flower-box babies. You can see them here, attended by Strawberry Girl:
In case you're wondering, Strawberry Girl is singing The Garden Song to them.
Any requests for what to make next?
Speaking of gardens, I am trying to put my weeds and stones in order. In among the proliferation of dandelions, however, a new plant showed up. I decided to let it be, and today, found that it was a pinkish-purple foxglove.
I'm pleased that the trillium have doubled. Here are two toad trillium:

Oh, those are pretty - I don't think I've ever seen real trillium before.
You're getting so good at the felt dolls! These latest ones are so lovely! I wish I had that kind of talent.
I just bought a foxglove plant for my yard. Thus far, it seems to be okay with life in my garden. It's not as happy as that rhubarb you sent. I must take another picture. I believe I will be harvesting some this weekend and making a rhubarb cake.
I want rhubarb. The toad trillium are gorgeous. So are your box babies!
Thanks, everyone! One of the box babies has already found a good home.
I bought seven pounds of rhubarb on Friday. Tell me of this rhubarb cake of which you speak, Adrienne. Did you end up making it?
those babies in their cribs are so adorable!
