Some new arrivals...

Oh dear, while there have been some departures ...we have said goodbye to Bonnie Blue Blythe, a Katie Copy Cat, a barbie and almost goodbye to Sheena (awaiting payment)... oh and of course the Moana family who have 'emigrated' to Hittyville....there have been some new arrivals as well.   Not sure how that happened!  

So my debt has not been reduced...if anything it has risen slightly again.   Sigh...

Anyway we will ignore that for now.

The three new arrivals are:

Utz, Ron & Otti

They wander outside and meet Rosie and Amy Lynn

The girls are delighted to meet the new children and welcome them warmly

Amy Lynn and Rosie tell them all about what it is like to live here.

They are very excited to have some more playmates.

New Knitted dress

Latest dress off the needles...

Wahine & Mahuta Moana are hoping to Emigrate

The Moana family are considering moving...

Wahine & Mahuta are fed up with the cold, damp, drizzly grey weather in ol' blighty and want to head for shores anew!  They have heard that there is a lot of things going on over in Hittyville, and are hoping that there will be room to move to this inviting place.

They miss the country and from what they have heard and read, Hittyville is definitely in the country :-)

Wahine (woman or wife) is married to Mahuta (Maori King) who is actually less a warrior and more of a dreamer, which can be seen from his expression.  He is a very kind hearted soul who only wants what is best for his family.

Little Hine (girl/daughter) is happy as long as she is with her parents and is quite happy nestling on her mama's back.

They are just waiting to hear back from Immigration, Visa and Passport control to see if their application has been accepted....

Flowers...

Look at the lovely flowers Owen

What is that?  Looks like a huge Wolf! ....

Feathers....

"Cackle, cackle, Mother Goose.

Have you any feathers loose?

Truly have I, pretty fellow

Half enough to fill a pillow.

Here are some quills, take one or two,

And down to make a bed for you"

Enough feathers for me or for you Owen?  I have a quilt now....

Sigh...

Final face spa?

I've been continuing to work  on 'Peggy Sue' again these last few days...not learning the lesson 'leave well enough alone' wanting to try and bring her eyes more alive. Still haven't achieved what I picture in my mind....now why didn't I take art at school? Or maybe this is the reason I didn't! Now do I keep fiddling?  Or leave well enough alone.   Somehow I think she looks a tiny bit cross eyed - and one tooth looks a bit pointed - but can I fix them?  That is the question.

I have also trimmed her hair into a bob.  It still needs a bit of taming!

Have since done a couple of alterations...
