Happy May day!

Please let me introduce you to my new grand baby Alice!

She was born March 23...and she is the sweetest lil girl. 

She looks a lot like my other Grand daughter Jessica. 

I love these girls sooooo much!

I am lucky to be a grandma...such love! 

Jess gets a bit jealous...but she is a good Sis...always fetching her something and loves to throw away her diaper...lol.

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

It's time to celebrate 250 years of this glorious country!
These beauties are fun to make and are frankly addicting.

I have a brand new pattern: American Bowl fillers and ornaments #457... it is available in my etsy shop. 

It is a big pattern...12 pages long..lots of photos, detailed instructions and tips!.

Sew up some vintage like Patriotic Americana bowl fillers & ornaments...Using velvet & lace! These make great decor from Memorial Day...to Flag day.....to 4th of July and to Veteran's day!
There is a rectangle flag, Uncle Sam hat, a Rocket firework, a heart flag, star flag, a square with stars and patriotic strawberries!

Make use of your laces and beads...most everything is at hobby lobby if you don't already have supplies....including velvet!

They make a great gift and look amazing sitting on a little shelf or hanging on a tree or knob. Plus they are terrific craft show sellers.

These strawberries are so fun...easy too! They great pincushions as well.

Finished sizes are: from 6" x 4" to 4 1/2" x 3".

My father passed away yesterday.  He was 91 and a half.

He came from Scotland

He had a big family that immigrated to America.

He loved to dance and had many loves in his life.

This is one little love, my daughter Selina. 

One of the most extraordinary things about him was that he was sober 52 years!

He helped a lot of people at AA. 

This just happened so I am going to leave it at this.

I love him and will miss him greatly.
