Love, yesterday, Vintage Halloween and more!

I love this saying...so funny!

I drew the tag along time ago...just a simple tag and now I can add whatever saying I want...so very easily!

This would make a great gift tag...for someone with a sense of humor.

This is my Brand new pattern!!

A Vintage Halloween Party- prim wool goodies! #374 

Get ready for a fun Party!

There are 6 projects in this pattern: Sitting pumpkin head, Mr. Pumpkin with bat, 

Three pumpkins in a row, and The dangling cat, ghost and pumpkin.

What a perfect addition to your Halloween decor...easy and quick too!

Mr. Pumpkin with bat (11 1/2" tall x 4 1/4" wide).

These are Fun and addicting to make.....plus they are great to sell at craft shows! 

Sitting pumpkin head (6" tall x 5 3/4", not including arms & legs).

These make great displays & are fun gifts! 

The dangling cat, ghost and pumpkin (16" long x 3 3/4")

These float in the breeze so nicely...I love using cheesecloth.

Three pumpkins in a row (14" long x 4 1/4").

I used lots of shades of orange wool for these...they remind me of decorations of long ago!

I can't wait to get all these up in my house ....plus all my other goodies....it's like adult kid candy!

I am in the new Autumn 2016 PRIMS magazine...with my pumpkin man doll with his skull balloon and Agatha Willow witch.

Both patterns are available in my etsy shop or on my website. The magazine doesn't have the patterns, but I wrote an article about them and the process.

Here is Selina....

My daughter started up a you tube channel....where she will make tutorials.

She re-filmed the Ticket flower tutorial

You got to go over to her blog and see the amazing renovations she did on our camper....

She has lots of pics and info.

Now it looks so retro and fun...not depressing...lol.

Have a fun Friday!!!

Come to the Pin Me Linky party!  Come to Craftastic Monday!   Come to the Home matters linky party!

Sweet floral bookmarks

Happy Leap day!!

This day only comes every four years...so enjoy it.

I decided this day need a little gift!

I made these bookmarks and I want to share them with you!!!

The book marks are here....free!

**for personal only only

They look like this after downloading and printing them! 

Just cut out and add string, yarn or ribbon.

I put a tassel on this one...

All the artwork was done on Adobe illustrator...using my newest repeat pattern....wild florals. 

I covered these books for quilt market a few years ago....just old wallpaper.

The books looks so much nicer now...hahaha.

I was in desperate need for some bookmarks for some magazines I was reading and I wanted to keep my spot.  I have a bunch of bookmarks somewhere...I am always trying to organize and then I don't know what great place I put them at.

Need to know How to make a tassel?  

Here is a great youtube video on how to do it!

Here I added purple ribbon.... 

Relax and accept the crazy....one of my favorite sayings right now! 

Encourage silliness....I always do!

Enjoy this unusual day!!!

Come to the Home matters linky party!  Come to the Pin me linky party! Come to Crafty moms weekend!

Be Different ...freebie!

Don't you just want to be different...follow your own path?

This sweet flower decided to do it her way!

This would make a terrific little pillow shelf tuck...embroidered up!

I have been making some embroidery designs for these super adorable hexies that my daughter made.

They are wooden pendant blanks....and you can pop in embroideries and fabric.  

I will be having a pattern for the embroideries. I have 24 designs to do...geez...I may have to cut it done to 12 or 18. 

Here I  did something alittle easier....just put some kitty fabric with a touch of embroidery....the flower and grass...

then I popped it into a hexie blank. 

Each hexie is 1 " 5/8 Tall and 1" 5/8 Wide.......Then the inside is 1" 2/8 Tall and 1" 2/8 Wide

My daughter Selina has recently experimented with even tinier hexies....that make a perfect ring!

This picture was taken with my phone...color isn't exact.

The fabric just fits in like the hexie pendants and you add a blank ring.

Cute matching set isn't it!

Another embroidery which will be in my pattern,

hearts are great anytime of the year.

Say 

Hello to 

The 

Weekend!!

Come to the Pin me linky party!  Come to the Home matters linky party!

Let the Shenanigans begin!

I illustrated some new St. Patrick's Day tags...2 sheets of printables.

I love the green and purple combo! 

There are 2 collage sheets- 15 different tags and one banner that says" Let the shenanigans begin!"

Other tags say: I'm a wee bit Irish, Lucky me...I have you, and Happy St. Patrick's day. Some tags says...Lucky girl! Just print, cut out and add strings, ribbon or yarn. Glittering them would also be adorbs! 

The top left and bottom right are what the sheets look like when printed out. 

These are cute for parties, glued on fabric hearts, hanging on knobs, tucked in your altered art projects, and much more! 

The banner would be sweet on a small wreath or on a big felt shamrock. 

I feel so lucky ... I bet you do too!

This is my mound of goodies ...to put in the tag holes.

My stash is never ending...I keep telling myself not to buy more...

but do I listen?

Nope!

Come to the Pin me linky party!  Come to the Home matters linky party!

I bring you good tidings!

Merry 

Christmas!!

I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday and make merry!!!

Above is a little Friday Freebie for you!

It would be cute stitched up on a sachet of lavender.

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

My daughter made the mini hoop pendant blank from wood...I stitched up the Merry Christmas...She will soon be selling her mini hoops and I will be selling a pattern with lots of designs for the pendants.

Christmas has put us behind on getting them in the shops...I guess we were having too much fun!

It is a White Christmas for us this year....we haven't had one for several years...now we have lots of snow!

Come to the pin me linky party!  Come to the party bunch!!

Welcome great pumpkin!

Have a wonderful Halloween!!

Autumn is here freebie

This one is soooo funny!

This year I am eating healthy and I am losing weight, but other years went the way of the fat pants...lol.

I loved buying Halloween candy .... all my favorite bags. I also indulged in baked goods.

I feel great changing my old bad habits.

It is better this way.

We have tons of squirrels...hiding all their goodies in the yard.

They seem to think their tiny holes to put goodies in are works of art.

Enjoy this freebie!

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

October is here!

I love this month and all the spooky goodness!

I am putting up decorations for Halloween and I realized....I have way too much stuff!

I can't seem to stop myself however!

My hubby and I went to the "Roost"...an antique store in Spokane...and we had a blast.

They have the greatest displays!

Creepy skeleton bride! 

Cracks me up!! 

This chair display was so cool...they really have a knack for getting things just right! 

When in doubt ...put fake rat in bowl of candy corn! 

I love lighted plastic outside decor! 

He is eating a kitkat 

Wolfman....wearing several hats 

Displays were way up high too!  

I wanted everything! 

This last pic was from the Vintage rabbit.

I love the idea of a doll head..placed in a pumpkin with a witch hat!!

So cool.
