Sunflowers and Love freebie

I missed Freebie Friday ...again....time goes by so swiftly!  It really does seem like summer days just drift by so fast, before you know it, we will be school shopping.  I wanted to grow sunflowers this year, but didn't get around to it....it also didn't help that summer temps have taken forever to get here in the pacific northwest.  We have not even hit 90 degrees yet this year!  What's up with that? 

Get ready for Halloween!

It is never too early to work on Halloween projects!  Before you know it....fall will be upon us. 

This pattern above is on sale for $3.99 until Monday July 11th on my patternmart. 

There is nothing like working with wool or felt.   It is so forgiving and you don't have to be perfect, because it will look great anyway.  All of my patterns can be made up into the finished products and sold on etsy, ebay, and craft shows!   I love seeing my designs made up on the internet and at shows.  I am always amazed when I am just shopping at a local craft show and someone has made up my mannequin or stitchery or other designs. 

I have been sooooo busy lately, seems like days are just flying by.  I hope you all are having an amazing summer so far!

Kitty is sick!

Hi everyone!  My kitty cat Froy is very sick...I am racking up a huge vet bill.

I am so worried about him.  He is such a sweetie and so lovable.  I also have to get ready for the Farm Chick show which is this weekend...June 4 and 5th at the Spokane Fairgrounds.  It seems like things always happen at once.

Wednesday update: Thanks for your support everyone!!!

Froy is getting a tiny bit better, still worried if he is eating and drinking enough. He hates antibiotics and forced feedings...but he purred afterwards with me, so that was good.
New Update....Froy is alot better...not 100% yet, but getting close!!!
