Kindred Spirit Doll Swap Packages


Hi Prim girls,
 Few weeks ago, Amy’s from Bumble Bee Lane   had a new swap in her blog,  Kindred Spirit Doll. I participated and it was so amazing because I had  two partners in it. That  means to new dollies for my collection. My partners were Maurine from Stitchins Prims Blog,  and a sweet gal named Theresa. Currently, she hasn’t a  blog  but  she is  very talented and  makes gorgeous dolls, go her  Etsy Shop and see her creations.
 I loved dolls, although I can make them I loved to have dolls from other artisans as well. In the past I won a giveaway from  Maurine, and I was pretty sure that anything from her will be beautiful and do not mistake me when I saw my doll. My new black doll came in a middle of the Hurricane, you read correctly, I received her when Hurricane Irene hit us, so I named her Irene. Thanks GOD the hurricane did not affect us directly except for some tree branches down, I came  from the Caribbean and knowing the forces of the hurricane like that I was worried  about what could happens with the strong winds that Irene had.  But when I saw the box in my porch and opened it  I have  a feeling  that everything will be OK , if she came in the middle of the Hurricane everything will be fine. 
She is an AWESOME prairie faceless doll with and old key in her chest.  Now, she is proudly sat in my living room and I love it! Thanks Maurine.
When participating in a swap  always read my partner’s blog to get a better idea of their tastes to make sure you like my gift. It’s a bit difficult when there is no blog. With Theresa exchanged emails and check her store to have an idea of her taste ,  she loved  Halloween things. Amy ask us to share pictures of what we send to gals who had no blog. I included three items in her package...
This beautiful Witch, it is  an OOAK item , she is my own creation and no pattern was used.  Made in stained osnaburg and her dress is  painted osnaburg. Her face is sculpted, stitched and colored painted.She has a broom and a spell book .Ready for October 31.
A lovely black cat, a stump Kandy Kat. Made of painted and stained osnaburg, his eyes are mismatched buttons, nose is sculpted and his whiskers are rusted wire.
In a primitive shop here, I founded this awesome tarts that smells so good. I included them in my last giveaway but I decided to send a package to Theresa too. Hope she enjoy  them.
Last week,  I received  the second swap  package, it came from Theresa.  This came in one of my worst days of my life then I think it comes with a strong message from GOD to me.  She spoiled me with this. 
 The main requirement of this swap was a 10”doll but she send to me the most cutie prairie doll, she is amazing and I called her FAITH, 
3 prairie dollies ornaments,
and a wonderful Thankful pinkeep.  
  I was static and could not believe such generosity. BIG, BIG Thank you , Theresa. I loved them!

THANK YOU Amy for having this wonderful Swap and my partners for these treasures.

Bye, bye and see you soon, 
Eve
