Made With Love

A wedding gift made years ago
with loving caring hands
not stamped with a logo
or a popular brand.

Just made with love and given
on a happy wedding day
for many years this gift
was put out on display.

Then tucked away so lovingly
to be given one day to me
a gift that I will treasure
when my Aunt said,
"These are for you Dee"

A gift made for us by your Mother
so many years ago
I knew that you would cherish them
and wanted you to know

I took them home and looked at them
and knew right away
I would once again give this gift
to my grand-daughters one day.

This gift was made once again
for Jessica Lynn and Haley Nicole
from a gift made by their great-grandma
63 years ago........

This web page was created through 
the love and help of a lot of people,
some who will never know they had 
a part in it, mainly my Mom, 
who has Alzheimers. 
These dolls, (pillow case) dolls, 
were made from a pillowcase and a 
dresser scarf that my Mother made 
with her loving hands, 63 years ago,
as a wedding gift for my Dad's 
brother and his wife, my Aunt and Uncle.....
I am sure as she 
was making them, she never once imagined 
that her handi-work would one
day appear on a web page, on a computer, 
63 years later......
(What is a web page, and what is a computer??????)

This type of doll is the kind little girls 
played with years ago.....
made from pillow cases or material that 
their Mothers or Grand-mothers 
just happen to have on hand.....
Hence, no faces.......

My Aunt gave these pillow cases to me, 
and it was then I decided that 
I would make
these dolls for my two 
little grand-daughters.
Then I decided that I needed 
to make a web page about these dolls.

Who better to ask to design a set for me, 
than my good friend, Anita/Star*Shine......

SO...

I would like to dedicate 
this page to my Mom, and my Aunt Nori



Last but not least, 
my two beautiful grand-daughters, 
Haley and Jessica,
for without them I would not 
have had anyone to make these dolls for...:-)


Thank you......I love you all......
