Works in Progress


Started working on these projects in the last few week, I have apparently hit a applique phase. The top one just needs a outside boarder, then I can sandwich both of them and get them finished. I might list them in my shop, or I might not. Really undecided at this point if it would be worth trying to get the "perfect " picture, title and tags then wonder if they are going to sell or not. They might just be destined for a perfect Christmas gift for someone, or mayhaps meant for my office wall :)  Time will tell where they end up.

Spring has Sprung

This is what happen when you get a new high tech phone with a nice camera :)
I was a clicking fool today, this is some of the gorgeous pictures I took at one of the properties that we maintain for the company we work for. Now all we need it warmer weather and I will definitely be one happy camper.

Newest Project

Just finished this last night, it is crochet which I have not done in a million years, well not quite that long, and instead of using yarn, I used old bed sheets. My husband is enjoying it on his side of the bed, says it keeps his feet warm when he has to get up at night.  Started another one, and when it is finished just might put it on my side of the bed to feel what he is talking about :)

Craft Fair News

Well we survived our first craft fair in 20 years.  It hasn't changed much, so I am not sure what I was soo worried about. It is still a touch and go proposition, this one didn't go bad, I think the problem stemmed from the fact that the weather man said the dreaded four letter word SNOW, so unfortunately not very many people showed up to peruse the craft offerings. I made back my entrance fee, gave out some of my business cards and made some new acquaintances, so not too bad.

My next one is April 14th, hopefully the weather will cooperate and we will have a better read on weather this will work to get my name out there or what. I did get a inquiry on a special order for a twin size quilt, but she really didn't seem to know what exactly she wanted so I gave her a card and hopefully she will be in touch when the time is right for her. There were other quilt vendors there, so it is a possibility she was price comparing to see what price she was going to be looking at for this size quilt.
