I went to work down in the studio picking out fabrics for my new dolls to wear and came back up to this sight. Of couse my little cat Tobias would be in the laps of my new dolls. He is so funny. He loves my new dolls-loves to cuddle up with them. I have a Sleepy Beauty Doll in her own bed and he is always trying to snuggle up to her. If I happen to take her out of the bed he leaves the bed alone. The minute she is back in it, so is he. So here is a funny photo!
Also for Ren of Fairy Steps, I had to add a photo of myself wearing a pair of my stripey socks with a pair of my favourite red shoes(I have a thing for red shoes) and one of my favourite dresses(I love the diamonds of blue and purple). Stripes are always a good thing! Check out Ren's amazing shoes that she makes all by herself-Wow!-and all the other magical things in her life at her blog HERE!

Thanks Sandra-I did make him a doll thinking that would make him happy but no-he likes the ones he is not supposed to have the best! This I can't quite seem to figure out about him-he is such a little mystery-right now he is sleeping in a shoe box next to a comfy cat bed-he has his own thing going on!
take care,
merle
Thank you....!!!!
You look wonderful! I like the red shoes, they look very comfy... but you need fairy shoes with pointy ends....
And snap on the black cat 'who likes to sit on everything you make'. My big black cat Zambi does the same..... hairs everywhere! I have to keep my workroom door closed or else he tries to find bags and shoes to sharpen his claws on! But I love him.
The dolls are going to be beautiful, cant wait to see the finished outfits.... striped stockings are perfect on them!

You've been busy! Everything looks maaarvelous! Can't wait to see the finished outfits for the gals! -- Cindy
That cat is just too funny...they love to be where the creative action is, and right in the middle of it!( I have to keep my hats behind closed doors or my two cats will be sleeping on them!) I love the expression on your cats face...very self-satisfied!

Thanks Ladies!
Yes, Ren, I agree-I love these shoes but a pointy toes would be so much better! And, yes, I do shut these kittens out when I am working on my printing press and squirt them with water when they are just way too much into my stuff. You should hear all the crying when I shut them out of the studio-just horrible!
Thanks Cindy! I hope all is well with you! I am getting several dolls to this part and then I have to get over the hump to the next. Right now I am picking out fabrics for everyone and getting new sewing floss-time to get more supplies!
You so right Stella-my cats can't be fooled-they know where the real action is! I am sure my cats would be sleeping on your hats as well(they actually making my long hair into 'nests' to sleep into-it gets a little crazy). This little Tobias is very happy with the dolls-it is always hard to pull him away from them!
xo, merle
I think Tobias is protecting your creations - or keeping them warm perhaps until they receive their gorgeous dresses! I so love your dress and stripey socks and red shoes, Merle. Wonderful! x
Carol Anne,
You share a name with my mom, but she has gone by just "Annie" since high school! I think you are right about Tobias. Once the fancy fabrics come out he will have to make do with his little cozy sleeping basket! Thanks about my dress, socks and shoes-they all make so happy!
take care,
