Strawberries!!!

Summer and Strawberries go together!

This is my newest pattern:

Strawberry pincushion, needlecase, and scissors fob pattern #330

It is in my etsy shop, in my patternmart shop, and on my website (for printed/mailed patterns)

There is the Strawberry pincushion box....that can be made with or without the paper mache box.

Pincushion on box design measures: 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"

Pincushion alone measures: 4 1/2" x 3 1/2"

The strawberry needlcase.....with little flower.

Needlecase measures:6" x 4", not including ribbon 

And the small strawberry scissors fob

Scissors fob/needle sharpener measures:2" x 1 3/4", not including ribbon

This delicious pattern has everything you need to start sewing. A strawberry pincushion on top of a box to stash some supplies... a needlecase to store your needles & pins... and a scissors fob with strawberry needle sharpener. These are easy, fun, and quick.

Here is what the needlecase looks like when open!

 

Create a special gift for your BFF. The scissor fob keeps your pins, needles, and scissors handy. This is the sweetest set of accessories to your end table or sewing room. Use special techniques for all your paper mache boxes....any color or size. Learn how to make pretty banners from scraps of muslin. Learn how to make super fast strawberries for bowl fillers and christmas ornaments. Make strawberries from velour and velvet too.

The box can store you goodies!

Great craft show projects!

I have been making these for years....like this one....available in my Mrstiddlemouse shop.

I also tell you how to do this style in the pattern.

 

Time for some Strawberry shortcake!

Come to the Pin me linky party and the Party Bunch!

Country drives....still fun

Yesterday we rode around the countryside ....hitting small and tiny towns outside of Spokane.

We enjoyed Rosalia ....it had lots of photo opportunities.

Here is my daughter Selina....with a Greek goddess painter...she has a palette and paint brush.

Selina has an etsy shop with her photography...Peacock Gumdrop.

She will soon have her new pictures up....including the creepiest old abandoned church....we were kinda scared! 

It felt like a ghost could have gotten us.

I love this...near the town main street.

It has a big flag in the rock.

I wish I could reveal more, but my daughter will be making cool prints of our adventures.

-------------------------

Summer is almost here.....some say summer begins right after Memorial day. 

This is a brand new sign in my etsy shop....simple and sweet.

The color is an orange and light orange/yellow.....feels warm like summer.

 

These are just some of the summer items in my Etsy shop.

Summer time flash cards

They are fun to put out among shells on shelves....in scrapbooking pages....and on a barbecue table display.

I am so excited to be sitting under the patio and relaxing....feeling warm instead of freezing.

I just need to keep the darned Prairie dogs away.

 

Summery Tags...that crack me up!

 

Sweet bee...

Bee happy Raggedy Ann doll with bee

 

She is a sweetie.  Every time I bring her to a quilt show...everyone wants to buy her.

-----------------------------------------

My next pattern has to do with strawberries....should be out tomorrow!

-----------------------------------------------

How beautiful a day can be

when kindness touches it!

 

 

 

 

Home of the free....because of the brave

Memorial day is upon us....I have been thinking a lot of the men and women who did so much for our country.

We have the greatest nation on the planet....

I wish for one day that all political parties could just be happy about what a wonderful country we have!

Above is my newest sign ...."Home of the free because of the brave".

It is part of this lovely treasury on Etsy!

In Honor of Memorial Day

These are just some of the great items in this Etsy treasury.

----------------------------------------------

All gave some, some gave all!

 

Come to the Pin me linky party and the Party Bunch!

Have your cake....and eat it too

Yummy cake.....birthday cake!

I still think it is nicer and cheaper to make a cake rather than buy one at the grocery store.

The only time I buy a cake is when a lot of people are coming....and I need a big one.

I made a cake last weekend and everyone ate it up!

---------------------------------------------------------

I just wanted to share a few things with you.

This is a new sign in my etsy shop....I love you dad.  Just need to be able to say how you feel?

Makes the perfect gift for Father's day or when baby is born and there is a new daddy in the family.

Looks great hung up in the man cave.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is kinda hard to see...but this is my little herb garden just outside my studio door. 

It was a worn out end table...it was outside getting weathered...the top fell out. My daughter painted it last year and now we stapled some chicken wire and moss in the bottom.

I added dirt and planted my little herbs...so cute! 

It is right next to my blue chair. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------

June 7th and 8th is the Farm chick show here in Spokane Washington!

It is one of the best antique shows in the country...I was in it for several years.....crazy good sales!

People would be in line to get into your booth...they had to get there first.

It was such a good experience...so glad I did it!

I can't do everything though, so I decided to concentrate on patterns and artwork.

Above are some of the posters when I was in the show....I have it hung in my studio!

It took me months to make cool items and then sell almost everything in a weekend.

I love being a shopper however (I can always carve out time to shop!)

There is only one bad thing about the show.....

it is soooooo crowded....that I get alittle nutty.

I will have to practice my slipping around people skills!

 

Come to the Pin me linky party and The Party bunch

6 years on Etsy!

I can't believe I have been selling on Etsy for 6 years now....the anniversary date was yesterday!

I just love Etsy...I love being a seller on it and love buying from Etsy sellers too!  They have a great price for sellers and it is so easy to list items on it.

When I look at some of my statistics...these were my most bought and favorite items....according to etsy.

My large Mannequins pattern....

My supply tags....to organize your sewing space.  I made lots of different versions of this too.

 

Everyone loves this sign it seems....my sister lives in Salem...ha ha ha

 

My banner letters...to make a banner for anytime or event.

 

My mini mannequins and small tomato thread toppers.

 

Everything is better in purple. I also have one for pink.
