Wondering About Some Babies.

My wife is making babies.  Is it cigar time?


No, I don't mean she is having babies, she is working with a bunch of cloth babies that she purchased at the flea market awhile back.  Most all of them were faceless, hairless, and just cloth colored, although there were a couple of black ones.

She stained them with coffee to get flesh tones and rubbed them with cinnamon to color and also to make them smell good.  She then sewed button eyes on their faces and hair on their heads.  She then made simple clothes for them to wear.  Yesterday, we bought a couple of nice big carts and she put all her new dolls in one of them.  So here is a picture of them happily riding in the cart. (To give you an idea of size, the cart is 16 inches wide by 30" long.)
 
 
 
As you can see, there are finished dolls and some only in the process.  She even crocheted a hat for one of them.  Now, that is a bunch of kids.  They say that kids are cheaper by the dozen, but there are more than a dozen riding in that cart.  Well, at least they seam happy and I want you all to also be happy and have a great day, you hear?

    1. I ain't sure if they all have a heart, but some do. Just like the people in this world; some have a heart and some don't.
