2 rag dolls and a sideshow attraction


I might have mentioned in a previous post that the three grandgirls came out for an overnighter last weekend and we worked on red yarn wigs for the twins' Halloween costumes of Raggedy Ann and how I didn't get a picture of them trying them on.

Well, it turns out I didn't get a picture but their younger sister did.


I think I also mentioned that I went in town last week so I could take the girls to the thrift center to find suitable dresses for their costumes but as it happened it didn't work out so I went by myself and picked out totally appropriate clothing except none of it fit...too small.

You think we are smaller than we actually are, Jade tells me.

So I busied myself making the aprons last Monday so Marc could deliver them when he went in to do a small job on Tuesday.


Got these pictures from their mother.

Jade had been more reluctant about the idea and decided not to wear her wig.

But Autumn totally rocks.

Robin, as always, walks her own path.

  7. Love the makeup jobs! And yes, those wigs rock. I'm impressed that you made the aprons! I don't think I ever wore a handmade Halloween costume.
