“Norman The Pilgrim” Country Thanksgiving Pilgrim Doll Decoration E-Pattern

Norman The Pilgrim is a free-standing doll getting ready for Thanksgiving. He has a shirt with long sleeves and embroidered cuffs, square-bottomed pants, long embroidered vest with Pilgrim belt and buttons, embroidered Pilgrim collar, corduroy lined hat with Pilgrim hat belt, a beard, mustache and long white hair fastened in the back. His arms are wire-shaped and covered. His face is embroidered. He also has a fabric covered head and covered rectangular wood base. His inner body is supported by a dowel and is covered by his shirt and squared-bottom pants. He is carrying a wooden rifle.

Norman The Pilgrim is on the hunt. You might wonder if he's on the hunt for turkeys? The answer would be "Yes" and "No." You see, he's really on the hunt for some "peace of mind" from his perfect wife, "Pleasantly Plump - Eunice." She just has to have everything so perfect hat Norman has to get out of the house. So, turkey hunting is an excuse. You see, "Norman The Pilgrim" is a practical man. So, just in case he was to happen upon a turkey, he brought his rifle along. He wouldn't want to disappoint Eunice. After all, she thinks he's the perfect man and perfect husband.....

Linda's Stories

I have written a LOT of stories since 2004 about my handmade gifts, my family and my childhood. So much so that at last count I was close to 250. YIKES!! That's a lot of stories. But, with a big family there's a lot of gifts and a lot of "stories" to tell.

Of course you have to keep in mind that these are "stories" and as such there may be a little exaggeration going on here or there. They are stories after all.

So, I decided to create a separate FAMILY label just to keep track of my stories. Just click here or click the FAMILY label in the categories box of my sidebar, Enjoy!

The History Of Faceless Dolls

The History of Faceless Dolls

I created a History Of Faceless Dolls .PDF. If you would like to download my History Of Faceless Dolls .PDF please click here or on the picture above.

I think you all know that I, personally, love faceless dolls. Victorians, primitives, colonial, prairie dolls, rag dolls, or country style dolls. It doesn't matter. I love them all.

In fact, I created a video to reflect my feelings about faceless dolls which is: "Beauty lies not only in what is seen, but what is imagined. I believe the essence of a dolls faceless beauty should determine her personality."

The Book & Crafts Review Corner

I just love books and craft kits. For the books I especially like books on crafts, craft making, dolls, doll making, sewing, handmade items, floral design, and history. I have a lot of doll and crafts books that I have bought over the years and I'm going to tell you about the ones I have. I'll be providing book reviews of the ones I like and tell you why I like them.

I also LOVE craft kits - especially punchneedle, wool felting, and cross-stitch. So, I thought I'd tell you which kits I've bought over the years and show you the results when I've completed them.

Plus, I might surprise you from time to time and throw in a few other things along the way. So, grab a cup of tea and stay for awhile.
