Crinoline lady #3

belle2

This crinoline lady has very pointy hands and a waspish waist, but is charming nonetheless. I'd like to think she's warming up for some really good dance moves.

Crinoline lady #2

belle1

Here's another crinoline lady for you - she's pretty cute, her slightly vacant stare notwithstanding. :)

And by the way, if you've been having trouble pinning my images to Pinterest I am so sorry! I hadn't visited Pinterest since they added Flickr attribution. The attribution is awesome, but it knocked something out of whack and pinning wasn't working for my stuff. :( But I found the right permission in Flickr and it's fixed now, so, happy pinning! :)

Crinoline lady pillowcase

girl4

I received a couple of messages from a reader, Phyllis who said she was looking for crinoline ladies. Now I'll warn you I am usually pretty pokey about responding to such requests, it's not that I don't want to - it's just finding the time! :) But I just happened to have crinoline ladies on the brain so trotted out to my garage to see what I could find...

I found this cute girl as part of a large pillowcase pattern below - my sheet was very fragile and I got a couple of small tears while scanning - but not in vain as I am finally sharing her with you guys! :)

I also flipped over the envelope and got quite a kick out of the verbose directions, which I thought I'd share with you guys as well:
