WooL & GiFtiEs SeNt....:)

Good Windy Sunny Morning everyone!!!! we have been getting some decent weather lately..a little windy..but if its not raining..its not a bad day..:) A couple of you asked where I get my wool from...this gal has wonderful wool and she ships out super quick.. her etsy shop is Quilting Acres tell her I sent you..you won't be disappointed.;)
I did a swap recently with my good Pal Linda of Parkers Paradise..she sent me some wonderful look alike firkins that she painted and distressed..I just love them...and she wanted a penny rug...so I made this out of an old wool green army blanket...I love how this turned out too.;) you see my little sizzix crow..;)
I made her a "prim Blessings" rolling pin cover that she just needs to stitch on.(I do make these and sell these if anyone is interested) I can make them with or without the Pin..I had my great pal Cindy of Cynthia Lees Designs digitize me this wonderful Parkers Paradise design that I embroidered onto a black checkered towel and put a blanket stitch around it..she also received a little winter snowman candle mat doily that I embroidered as well..and a little Pillow that Says: Primitives Simple Treasures of the past..I can't wait to see how she displays all her goodies.:)

Well we are off to home depot to get some fencing..Our stinky puppy is making mud trails of our lawn so we are fencing it off and planting grass and hoping he stops making trails in the yard..he loves to bolt out the door barking and being tough as he heads down to the tree where the Raccoons hide out..he hates them...and in doing so..he has made a mess of our yard.:)
I almost forgot...I would like to welcome my newest followers and one just started blogging..so please stop by her blog and say hi to Patti of Primitive at Heart..I can't wait to see what sorts of things she has up her sleeves crafting and just saying hey.;) I hope you all have a wonderful weekend where ever you are..thanks for always stopping by and saying hi.;)

  4. I do love each and every thing. They are beautiful and perfect for me! You just knew what I would love. I feel so lucky to have formed this friendship with you! And not just because of the exchange of goods. lol
    We do seem to have a lot in common. If we had met in person before this, it may not have developed as it has, with me being so much older than you. But as it has happened, it is awesome!
    As for puppers---they NEVER stop making messes or walking down the new grass or bringing in sticks and grass and mud. It just doesn't really get any better. Sorry but I have 9 living proofs of this statement! But I do encourage some sort of fence. It has helped to keep some areas looking better.
    Thanks for turning us on to Patti. She's a thrift shopper and make over gal! What could be better?
    Love you, Gina,
