I had some fun this weekend...mainly shopping with one of my sisters... Cecilia!

We hit a craft show and some antique stores...just goofing around in the rain.

I love collecting old paper holiday decor...like this bunny with the honeycomb egg.

This bunny goes with it!

They are so cheerful! 

These are fun little plant pokes,,,just a stick with a pom pom and some cute Easter die cuts. 

Cute chick!

I love looking at all the goodness with my morning coffee.

I love crafty people, artists, cute animals, antiques, fun sayings, illustrators, quilters, halloween...and much more.  You can type in any interest and follow anyone...it will come into your feeds. 

Plus people sell right on instagram....how cool is that?

I have not sold on instagram...but alot of people have.

You can follow someone and unfollow too...you dont have to keep everyone.  

I really enjoy it!

My daughter Selina now has her 3 pack- mini hexie ring blanks in her Etsy shop!

These mini Hexagons Ring blanks with silver rings.....are just the perfect way to finish a design and make the sweetest gift!  

These are some ideas....these are just fabric scraps...on the pink strawberry there are french knot seeds in red. 

The hexies measures: 1 1/8" at widest part of hexie and 1" across on smallest side. It has silver rings that are adjustable. 

This sweet little embroidery design comes with the "How to" sheet ...included in the 3 pack set.

These hexie necklaces and rings are all from a cute fabric line of Little red riding hood.

The mushroom is made from the mini hexie ring blanks. 

As you can tell...I am really proud of my daughter...she is my one and only baby....

I love her more than words can say!

This spring she graduates from high school....I can't believe it!

Have a fabulous weekend!

April showers....bring may flowers....

I remember that saying from Grade school.

Remember making sheep...with cotton balls glued on a paper?

Large easter flash cards...

Bunny tags with my collection of old photos....just download and print.

Here comes Peter Cottontail...I loved the animated/claymation  TV show about this when I was a kid....I was thrilled with it and all the cool holiday they traveled to.

I watched it with my daughter over and over too.

It's Easter for peeps sake!

I love the brightness of the yellow!

I wanted to show you some cool mushrooms I bought from my friend Sue from her craft show booth this past weekend....so cute! 

I just clipped them into my branch of eggs...perfect for my table.

Hope the cats stay away. 

My daughter and I went to hobby lobby...we got this cool wooden tree to display her pendants on.

I love it...it even fits her rings on it.

Selina's etsy shop is here.

She has finished pendants and rings as well as blanks to make your own.

I better get back to stitching...Why am I always behind?

I will never learn to get things done sooner!

Hide the eggs freebie!

Did you know Easter is pretty early this year? 

March 27!

I already bought some cadbury eggs and I have been avoiding the jelly beans!

I have to control myself alittle!

Have fun with this freebie!

 *Please note that all freebies are for you to use to make a couple finished goods (no mass producing) and a couple gifts...they are still legally my designs.

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

I have been playing around with some more surface pattern designs....fun flowers.

It reminds me of coloring in a coloring book....fun and free flowing.

(*These are not freebies, just letting you know)

 

This is the same one...only the black lines are now white.

It gives such a different feel. 

I really like these color combos...I need to stop using them all the time...and branch out...lol.

My daughter Selina has some awesome mini hexie rings in her etsy shop...she made the mini's recently because I was begging for some for rings...hehehe.

I am lucky she listens and gets right on it.

They are so sweet!

I love this farm/feed sack ring above. 

Here is some pretty wild flowers! 

See how the rings is adjustable.

I have fat fingers...but my daughter has tiny little hands.

They fit on my pinky and on her middle finger without changing it....weird huh....but they do adjust. 

This is a pink strawberry with red seed beads!

She is keeping this...can't sell the unicorn set....she fell in love....maybe another set could be made. 

I love this fabric...glad I got a bunch of it when I saw it. 

A new experiment for my daughter are these bird...the wings are fabric and they are brooches!

She just keeps coming up with cool ideas!

So proud of her!
