NEW LISTINGS!! GREAT GIFTS!!

Please stop by my Annabelle's Attic shoppes on Country Fried Primitives and Lemon Poppy Seeds to see some great gift ideas for the raggedy lover on your gift list....or something just for YOU!!!! I will get your purchases in the mail right away, wrapped nice enough for gift giving, too!! All dolls are for decorative purposes, and not intended to be toys for the young children on your list!! However, they would all be great for the older child to sit on a shelf in the bedroom, or lay on the bed, too!! Happy Shopping!! Happy Holidays!! Prim Raggedy Blessings, Trudy

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! HAPPY HAUNTING!!

Be Safe!! Have fun!! Send me all the Snickers!!! HAHHAAH!!!!! Happy Halloween, everyone!!! Raggedy Hugs!

NEW RAGGEDIES!! NEW VENUE!!

Happy Halloween!! It is hard for me to believe that 2008 has progressed to this point in time already!!! Where has the year gone?? Whiz!! Flew right on by!! My show was a super success, with lots and lots of prim and raggedy dolls and other creations being given new homes!! It was wonderful to have return customers from last year, looking for that special doll for themselves and others!! Thank you everyone for shopping with me, and making my creations a part of your homes!!

It is with great sadness that DJ has chosen to close one of my favorite market venues....Dandelion Darlings. However, she has given a shoppe on another of her venues, Country Fried Primitives, to all the Darlings and you can now find me over there!! Here are a couple of my new raggedies found on Lemon Poppy Seeds and Country Fried Primitives!! Come on over and take a peek!! Happy Haunting!! Happy Shopping!!!

Goodness!! My apologies!! I have not vanished....but sure have not been posting on my blog here, have I??? I must do better at this!! Too many things to do, and not enough time apparently!!

RAGGEDY DISASTERS!!!

Too little time....too many tasks....toooo many things I WANT to do.....toooo many things I NEED to do......bottom line, this blog is badly neglected!! Must add another task to my looooonnnnngggg TO DO list, and post here more regularly!! I hope you will dash off to take a peek at the current raggedies on my Dandelion Darlings site, as well as the current listings on Lemon Poppy Seeds and Etsy, too!! We have been celebrating Christmas in July on Lemon Poppy Seeds, but those Christmas goodies will more than likely be replaced with other items within the next few days!! Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you will hurry back soon!!!

RAGGEDIES IN THE WORKS!!!!

Busy, busy, busy, busy........and having fun all along the way!! Piles and more piles of raggedies in various stages of "life" continue to grow as I work away in my world of raggedies and primitives!!

MARVELOUS MAY!!!

My gosh!!! It is already May!!! Time flies when you're having sooo much fun makin' raggedies!!! And have I ever been makin' those raggedies!!! FUN!!! FUN!!!!

I hope that you will stop by one or all of my many raggedy venues and check them out!!! I have also been working toward getting some of my raggedy designs into published form...but the process is slow.....and tedious......and I have NOT made much headway....but am headed there!! I have come to the conclusion, the same conclusion that I had come to when I was a kindergarten teacher.....I need...yes NEED, an admin assistant!!

Although it is May, we here in the foothills of the Colorado Rocky Mountains, and up above as well, had another taste of winter on May lst....snow, big huge wet flakey snow....falling down and covering up the signs of Spring....but voila!!! Today is back to looking like Spring again!! I love the magic of Mother Nature!!

Thanks to all of you for stopping by for a visit here in My Raggedy World!! Hugs, Trudy

DEBUT OF THE ALTER EGO BLOG!!!

I'm sure that everyone has an alter ego. Some just don't let theirs out!! In an attempt to become more organized, I have decided that I would have a separate blog for my raggedy world side of me!! My original blog, Caw! Caw! (my Crows in the Attic Primitives blog) will remain as my main blog location, and I will post mostly raggedy stuff on this blog!! Sounds like a plan to me!! I would love for those of you that have linked my other blog to consider linking this one, too!! THANKS!! I hope you will enjoy visiting to see what is going on in my world of primitive raggedy dolls and such!! Raggedy Hugs, Trudy
