Hello...September!

Why hello September...We have been waiting for you!

I love this time of year soooo much.  The weather is still awesome but a little cooler. 

Kids are back in school, fall baking is upon us and I can turn off the silly air conditioner....lol.

I swear my eyes are getting so dry from it and fans too.

Above is a brand new pattern!

September Kitty Cat Embroidery pillow pattern, #398.
This little kitty cat is celebrating. September is all about harvesting apples, crisp cool air and falling leaves.
Stitch up this quick design that features a sweet cat that loves celebrating with a balloon. 

There will be more in this series....one available for each month.  I will be putting them all out soon!

Make it up in a cute pillow adorned with easy to make felt & wool flowers. Cluster these super easy flowers on the corner of the pillow....these flowers are soooo popular now! Pattern pieces for flowers and instructions included as well. 

I created a new design for the September calendars....which are free for you!

I love to share my art experiences with you...

this time I started playing with pastels.

You know those little greasy sticks we all playing around with as kids....and then accidentally got some on the curtains...lol. I got silly putty on them too...not sure what i was doing back then.

I made a baby black crow on a pumpkin...above. 

He is my favorite.

I love jack o lanterns....each face is fun and I never know what kind it will have.

Here is a redhead, I was inspired to make it after watching the mini series Fosse/Verdon.

It reminds me of Verdon.

I even had to draw Wolfy...the werewolf.  

I then made him again as an art doll...below.

These are my new set of Halloween art dolls. 

There is the bride of Frankenstein, Franky (her man), Count Dracula, Mummy, Wolfy, black widow spider, and The Creature from the black lagoon. Most sold yesterday and today....but I still have Frankenstein and a pumpkin man.   They are in my etsy shop.

I really love the creature, and I am not sure I can part with him.

Notice the black widow has her family with her...her eggs (pom poms).

I love creating these and painting the faces....its as if something magical happens along the way...and they turn super cute.

This couple is fun, but she is not likely to marry him...lol.

Drac has fun teeth....ready for his next chick.

I design and hand paint these...add accessories and such...like little signs.

They are signed and dated too.

I also created another mini coloring book for Halloween, this time.

My last one was a bunny book.

This Halloween book prints out on one piece of plain white paper. I give you the instructions on how to fold and make it into a sweet 8 page mini book. Plus we also share a video on how to fold, cut and create....in case you prefer watching a short video. 

The mini book measures: 2 3/4" x 4 1/4".
This is Great for anyone who loves to color! Plus makes a great gift for trick or treaters. Kids will have so much fun coloring this sweet, not scary, book.

There are lots of pumpkins, a ghost, cat, witches and lots of moons and stars. Use colored pencils or crayons!

I had a blast coloring!

This is an instant download, u print it on your printer.....It prints on regular white copy paper, 8 1/2" x 11". It is a PDF file. You can print this as many times as you want! This is easy to create....you can show the kids and make them together.

I know...I am halloween nuts...but lots of people want it early.

Something spooky is in the pumpkin patch....

I have another new pattern....

 Haunted Pumpkin Patch pattern- #396.

Isn't this black kitty peeking around the pumpkin cute?!

These orange gourds are from a special pumpkin patch... creepy, yet cute. 

They are super easy to create... easy primitive sewing, no turning and the painting techniques are simple. You do not have to be a good painter to make these!

***Plus there is an almost 20 minute online video to help you along. It is private. The last photo shows part of the video lesson.

The pattern comes with easy to understand instructions and patterns for 7 different designs...one includes a black cat. There is also an in color eye painting diagram...so easy.

Make a patch of them for you and your friends. These make great craft show sales too ( no mass producing allowed). 

Pumpkins measure: 

6" x 6 1/4" to 3 3/4"x 4" not including stands. 

7 different designs included.

preview video is here...its a sample sneak peak.
