What is on my Table for today

Every feel like some times you actually get on a roll when your creating ?  Well I do, Today is one of those day.As I started painting faces on 3 different dolls, Hubby kept coming in the  my sewing room and said "Babe why don't we put the 6 foot table back up in here" "You look so crunched up in  a small table. Well I am now  taking a break, Not waiting for my doll faces to dry. Nope just waiting the get up n go to do the.  re-arranging once again of the sewing .
My sewing room actually is our 3rd bed room, which we have turned in to "Sewing Room"
I think it is 8 X 11, 6 foot table is totally awesome , I even have a area on the table where I can iron, I can do any thing all in one room.
And I am so more organized ! But it is a narrow path to go behind it where the sewing machine is and my chair where I sit up to my table. But know what I just don't care .
It really works for me and that is what is important!
Any ways here are the dolls I am working on. One doll is a Rag Doll. I really want to do her her face is charcoal.She just speaks to me to do that. The other 3 are going to be Whimsical Raggedy's .I am ready for Fun, Spring bright colors !
Tomorrow I will be able to get a lot more done on them and finish the two little ones. But for now yep grabbing hubby and getting  the big table put back up ,Have a Great Day!!, Sherrie
