Isn't she lovely?

I found her in an antique store and she is in very nice condition. I think she is referred to as a "Crinoline Lady". Jane at YarnStorm has some lovely ladies of her own. Maybe her name is Mary Quite Contrary and she is showing us how her garden grows. My little Mary has taken a prominent place on the guest bedroom dresser.

Ciao! TODAY IS 05-06-07

I love things like this. I have a pink crocheted apron only lacking the ribbon ties that one of my grandmother made back in the 50's. It' to impractical to wear but to pretty to get rid of.
