UFO's!!

Oh, but I've been so neglectful of my blogging lately. Life gets in the way and I've had a bit of the 'lazies'. School is starting in a few more weeks and the kids and I have been doing our school shopping. Happy to say that's all done and behind us except for what the school/teachers will need for their classes.

My table is FULL of many of my UFO's (Unfinished Objects)! 

I HATE it when I do this, however, it's just a part of me that comes with my creativity. I don't have much time to just sit and dote on one particular item. My attention gets a bit messed up when I have to attend to the daily necessities and the end production is a conglomerate of unfinished busy-ness!

My hubby is finally coming home to stay....YAY!! We finally got a project here in Florida and so we don't have to pretend to be married anymore!! It's been a long ! 1 1/2 years with him coming in every 2-3 weeks for only a few days. Hoping to not ever do that again!

Meanwhile, I've 2 other little girls SCREAMING for attention!

 This pattern if from Susan Dean of ThreadBare Primitives. They are so ugly, they are cute!!

Witch hats for the Jacks and a grubby Homespun dress for the little girls with their black hair and bows! So FUN!

I've got a Face Book Mystery Giveaway going on right now if you want to hop on over there and leave a comment.

The kids will go back to school and I might get a life so.....

Stay tuned!

A Memorable Day!

Good morning Blogging Friends!

Another beautiful day to be had on our Lake this morning. 

We spent a memorable day yesterday with some good friends that we haven't had time to be with in a while. I LOVE having the kind of company that just comes and pitches in! Makes the day that much more enjoyable since I didn't have to spend my time 'entertaining' and doing for others.

I have a WINNER announced on my FB page for my Mystery Giveaway. A LOT of guesses for an angel, one for a rooster, a bunny, and some flying pigs! Here's what it turned out to be!

Super cute Market Piggy from a Pattern by Kentucky Primitives that I bought from Pattern Mart.

I've also been 'nodding' off a bit. No, not the kind of nodding that 'face plants' you in your paint palette! This is the kind of  'nodding' I'm referring to!

My first Nodder! Yep! I got the sunflower pattern from Tawny Bell over  at The Primitive Nook and the crow pattern from Threadbare Primitives. I bought the old Rusted bed spring from the Overstock group on FB. The digital tag was purchased from Deena at Ewe-n- Me Printables. She's also on Etsy HERE.

I'm winding down by finishing up the Teacher Blocks. Got one more order over the weekend for one and need to finish my kid's teachers gifts. After that I'm quieting down (on Etsy) for the Summer. The kids will be out of school and I don't want to spend all of my time sitting at the computer and worrying about shipping and orders getting out. PLUS, I just need a break!!

Hope you're able to wind down and enjoy your summer, too. I'll still be crafting....I'll ALWAYS be crafting!

Stay Tuned for my Summer Giveaway here on my blog!
