You can never have too many cats....freebie

I know you can have too many cats...I had five once and they were at war at all times....that was too many for me.  I have three currently...they get along enough...lol.
I would love to have another baby....but Froy will kill me (Froy is my baby cat...8 years old)

This would make a fun tag for a cat lady friend or yourself of course.
Copy and save...but please share this with others....tell them about my freebies every Friday!

Forget the candy....it's all about the pumpkin seeds!

This is my sale pattern of the week!!!
Sorry the sale is over!
 Peter Pumpkin doll and kitty cat pal pattern- #337.

Have a horribly happy Halloween with this adorable skinny Pumpkin doll...he has a candy corn button, a leafy collar and a sweet kitty in his pocket. This is a fun mix of Prim & cute. Fast, takes simple supplies, & is easy! Comes with 6 tags for the doll to hold.
Pumpkin doll measures: 21" long, 5 1/8" wide
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wanted to share something I made years ago....It was supposed to be a bird feeder full of seeds...
It is a scrap of a wood 4 x 4 post...hooked onto a round cake tin.
Then I painted it and added butterflies too.
I just could never bring myslef to put it outside because I knew it would get yucky!
So I added some buttons to it and it looks great in my studio!  I have this orange wood spoon to scoop with.
Cute huh!
I love raffia too...makes fun bows.

My birthday was last week....I wanted to show some of my goodies....
I got a beautiful birdbath and Gazing ball from my Sister Cecilia and I put it in the courtyard by my studio!
My friend Sue gave me this cool Halloween cat candy container ...
and a cool chenille skeleton pin.
My sister Angie gave me a very old game....
Charlie McCarthy''s flying hats....from the 1930's. 
My cousin Virginia made me a very funny gift....a mannequin head...that represents the outdoor movie we watched...called The Frozen dead!  The eyes light up and everything!
Here is the movie poster...we had a projector and huge screen to show it on...right in our backyard!
It is scary and campy!
I was so afraid of this movie when I was a little kid....it is 50 years old too.
Sue gave me this funny book too....right up my alley....
I had to show this one...cracked me up!
funny old cards too.
I also got a value village gift card, lovely yankee candle, easter plate, furry chair, blanket, my sister Julie gave me a box of old valentines and letters, sewing machine and some sweet moolaa!
I then went shopping...haha...
This is a fun camper wallhanging kit.
I can't wait to make this....
Plus they gave me a gift card for next time....
I got some patriotic fabric....
lots of strips of fabric...
dirt cheap at a thrift store.
I got this pattern...not for the pattern but....
I wanted these orange fabrics inside.
Ans I also got some vintage patriotic characters...
I will have to take more pics later....I am too tired now...
It is super hot here and wiping me out.

Practice makes much better!

Many of you guys know I am always working on fabric design.
I love doing it and I love playing around.
Above is a design with Valentines in mind. 
I put these fabric designs in the hexie flower.
I love drawing cute characters....like this Birthday party bunny.
I love romantic florals and motifs.... 
and I love bold colors like this orange. 
Lime green is a favorite of mine when it comes to color choices. 
Sweet and simple is important...because not every design can be a "Star"....some have to be the supporting cast.
I love the variety of colors in this one. 
This is a collection that all fits together...it reminds me of a lemon aid stand...in colors that is.

Flowers in vases... 
Big over sized or giant scale is fun. 
Beautiful grays...

This is a mock up of what some of my fabric would look like on products.
Scarecrows!

And just the scarecrow heads...lol. 
Pumpkins....

Some of these designs are older....some are brand new...
but I love them all...
and this is just a small fraction of what I have made so far.

Thanks for stopping by!
