Tumbling while we wait...

As some of you will know from time to time I get orders for a look-a-like Mr Tumble rag doll and all day today I have been head down making this latest one. [in between pacing the floor and taking phone calls  :-) ]

I like to pop them on my blog so the buyer can approve him before paying so thought you'd all like to have a peep too.  It's been wonderful distraction therapy for an anxious expectant Nanny  :-)  The only thing he needs now is red buttons on his top but I am waiting to know the age of the child he is for because if they are under 3years I usually make them out of felt rather than putting proper buttons on for safety.

For those following twinnie progress....M has been allowed home because the contractions have eased now but with strict instructions to go straight back if any further developments later...they only live very close to the hospital so I'm sure she will rest best at home while they wait  :-)

Oh Annie, I bet every time the phone rings your heart is in your mouth. I hope the little darlings don’t keep you all waiting too long for the sake of your sanity.

Cute little doll, what a fab distraction!
