Raggedy Ann



This is my attempt to recreate the pattern on the dress of my beloved old Raggedy Ann doll. I think that the color schemes I have favored my whole life stem from this dress. They just make me happy!

Brown Dress

Elsie is a photo-taking maestro now! She took this picture of me in a dress I made last week. I really love this pattern and I think I will be reusing it again and again.

My four year old took this picture of me and my husband this morning. I was pretty impressed!

Landmark

I'm halfway through my beginner's upright bass book and I just learned a song called "Bile 'Em Cabbage Down". Pretty exciting, right? What does it mean? I don't know, but it sounds like a great one to bust out at parties. "Hey Mary, do you know "Bile 'Em Cabbage Down?" "Of course I do!"

Some of the others in my repertoire:
Rosin Rap
Teeter Totter
Tribal Lament
Pepperoni Pizza
Hot Cross Buns
4th Finger Marathon
Texas Two-String
Hop Scotch
Jumping Jacks
For Pete's Sake
Olympic Challenge
Olympic High Jump
Rolling Along

I will play any of these for your party for the right price

I can't believe this exists.
