Ornaments

I have a cute assortment of ornaments available.  But I do have a limited supply of each. I hope to have a few more styles made. So keep checking back. Prices range from $2 to $6 each.


More Christmas Items

Here are a few more items I have for Christmas. I just love making Christmas Decorations.  I have my Cumberland Santa coming soon. and maybe a few Snowmen in the works.



Wall Hangings for Christmas

I have some assorted wall hangings for Christmas. Candles, Gingerbread, Santas and Snowmen.  Check Needfulls for sizes and prices.



Baby Crib Size Quilts

I have an order for 5 Crib Size Quilts from my most favorite customer, neighbor and friend.  These are all going to be Christmas Presents for the Grandchildren.  I just finished 2 of them.  I'm really starting to get the hang of free motion quilting.  But it does take practice, practice, practice and is very hard on the hands and shoulders.  Hope you like them.

Happy Rainy Day

So I haven't kept my promise and haven't been posting weekly like I wanted to.  But I do have a good excuse.  I have been working every day trying to catch up on orders, so I have time to make new items for my next show.  By the way, the Fall Festival Show was a big hit. And I sold out on all my fall items.  Now I am working on Christmas.  My Flying Angel Dolls Sold out and I am again making more as I already have requests for her.


 
I also finished an order for Rag Dolls and had to come up with one for my Jewish Friend.  So Hanukkah Harry was born. He's the guy with the white beard and jeans.  Looks to me a little like Moses.
 
 
I am also  finishing up some orders for small placemats to fit in your RV, from the Rally we went to.  They should all be shipped out by this weekend, providing the rain stops and the streets in town are not flooded.
 
 
Here is a look at one of my new items for the show.  A 10" gingerbread doll.  He can sit on a shelf or you will be able to hang him when I add the wire to his back.
 

So now you know why I haven't been on line.  But will post more pictures of new items as soon as they are finished.

A Great Week In Mytrle Beach

Our week in Myrtle Beach was wonderful.  We were able to reconnect with long time friends (I don't say old friends, because I don't think we are old), made new friends, and wonderful memories.

We had great meals at the Rally.  Good buffet seafood dinner, Dinner and Show at Medieval Times, found a great pizza joint and then went to a beautiful Gardens with beautiful sculptures, animals and plants.  And of course I found a Quilt Shop.  Now the season for Craft Shows is starting so I will be busy for the next 2 months.  Here are some shots of the Rally.
