MY NEW FRIEND



I'd like to introduce my new friend Mary Jane (just finished her yesterday). She's very good company, always takes my side, and approves of everything I do - although she does give me some very knowing looks if I'm misbehaving ....

Isn't she sweet? I bought the kit about 3 years ago and finally the other day, deciding that I was in a sewing mood I set to work, and enjoyed myself so much.

The pattern called for stitching a lace-up effect on her boots, but I couldn't resist adding these little buttons instead.

I foresee a long and happy friendship ahead of us - we seem to be at one on any number of subjects, in fact she shares my opinions even on the dreaded politics and religion front! Funny that ....

I love her Rosie, and you did a wonderful job of putting her together :) You can tell that you know how to sew, she looks so neatly done.
Oh and isn't it nice to finish something you have had for ages?
