MY GOODIES FROM BRENDA ARE HOME

Hi, Primmies ~
This post is overdue as far as I'm concerned. I had trouble loading
pictures from camera to computer
to my netbook but they finally made it!
My bloggin' buddy Brenda of
The Rusty Thimble sent me some of the prim perfect Rabbits she's been making. It's her Rabbit she makes with the coat made from old quilts,
and you HAVE to see them in person
so I highly recommend that you buy one (heehee). Seriously, they are
marvelous:
This is the best picture I seemed to take, look at the dreamy creams and tans and his rusty nail paws, cheesecloth scarf and hand stitched details

Look at the blanket stitching she did all the way around his quilt coat
Close up of rusty nail paws and sweet annie and herbs tucked in his little coat pocket,
Look at that face;sisal whiskers,

I love how she made the stuffins' coming out of him!

I knew he was coming to our house to live, but these were a big surprise and this is how she does things, from her generous heart!
 My very own Chocolate Rabbits

I've always wanted these because I marvel at how they look like real molded chocolate bunnies

Brenda sent me a pair and I'm so thrilled. They are going in my grandmother's dough trencher that she made her biscuits in all her life. My Dad gave it to me before he passed away when she was still alive and in her nineties (she wasn't makin' biscuits anymore) They will be in a bed of green excelsior and I have to make some of those great grungy fabric carrots to lay around the rabbits

**Note** Brenda hit 1,000 followers just the other day! If you haven't been to her blog you must visit
The Rusty Thimble and be sure to look at her newest items, her exclusive carpenter apron pockets. They really are quite gorgeous:
Daisy Pocket

Americana Pocket
This is Brenda's current giveaway that you can enter for HERE

Here's one more (I couldn't resist)
Sunflower Pocket
This  primmie is going to watch a movie now. Of course I'm on Turner Classic Movies and it's an
Edward G. Robinson movie, Mr. Glen Oaks' fave
actor (well, besides Humphrey Bogart, Bette Davis
ok, he's got a lot of favorites). I'm gonna rest these
bruised bones and snuggle with my kitty Biggie,
the mistah has Puffy.
Hugs,
Susan

  2. Checking in on you this morning! You must be a bit better today? I hope so. Rest and watch movies sounds good.
    Brenda sure makes some beautiful prims. I just rec'd the Americana pocket and she also sent me one of those "no calorie" chocolate bunnies! Now I'm thinking I need one of those bunnies like yours! The detailing really shows up in your pics.

  5. Susan,
    Love Brenda's things. I have a bunny too, I won her giveaway last month and just received my little patriotic bunny a couple of days ago. I need to get pictures of mine too!! I am way over due in blog thanking her.
    Tell Mr. Glen Oaks, one of my all time favorite movies is Key Largo!! It was on TCM a couple of weeks ago, I DVR'd and have watched it probably a half dozen times, just love it.
    Warm Wishes,
    Kim
