Working....

I'm not really sure that I wanted to get started again but I seem to have found my 'groove' for now. I've been cutting out and sewing up Fall patterns. Some I already had and some I've recently bought. Have you ever heard of Chestnut Junction/Kellie Sharp? She's great and has her patterns, e-patterns, for $1.99. You can find her on Etsy if you click on the link above. I just picked up another 6 yesterday. I'm also working on some patterns from Pam Gracia of Soft In the Head.

I ventured outside away from my pool to cut some wood patterns out.

I was sweating like a pig by the time I finished and it was only 11:30 a.m. I think we reached 98 by the end of the day! It's been one of those long, hot summers for us and I'm afraid it's not even close to ending. This box of goodies is awaiting paint coverage! Lots of cute Fall designs from Renee Mullins of Plum Purdy.

These girls were 'sunning' and drying out from their bath in vanilla and cinnamon. They'll be

cute-sied up in a few more days. The pumpkins are for a different pattern.

I finished this last week but just got them photo'd.

Cute and inexpensive for a favorite Teacher. You can find it in my Etsy shop HERE.

For those of you on FaceBook, you may have already seen my pictures from the weekend. These guys turned the big "10" last Friday.

They didn't want a party because parties are for 'babies' so we took them to the beach (Jax and St. Augustine).

The weather wasn't the best but we did get some sunshine in the mornings.

Daddy taught then how to 'boogie' board and they had a blast. It was a memorable B-day and said to have been the 'Best'. Well, they say that every year but I have to agree with them this time!

School starts up on the 17th here. You'll probably hear my "YIPPEE" from where you are. I'm ready to get back into routine although not too excited about the early morning start.

It's already 4:30 p.m. and I've got 2 orders to finish so I can mail them out tomorrow so I better get moving.

Hope Summer has been good to you!

Spring Giveaway Winner!

Oh, what a GORGEOUS day here in our Sunshine State! Not trying to brag but it sure makes a person feel good and productive to see it so beautiful out. The kids are on their way out to the pool! The water is still a bit too cool for me. If the heat index keeps rising I'm sure I'll be in it by the end of April!

I've finished a couple of 'Bunny' Plants today.

Our daughter has a Piano Recital tomorrow and I thought I'd give one to the Teacher. I made 2 of the 'pink' ones. I think I'll list just one in my Etsy shop. It's a little late for new Easter items.

We took the kids to Disney this week.

 

They had a half-day at school so we kept them out. Thought we'd be home in time to get them to school the next day but my 'biggest' kid wanted to stay for the fireworks. We got home at midnight. I woke up the next morning and felt like a Mac Truck had run over me a few hundred times! Just not as young as I used to be!

Thank you, all, for commenting on my Springtime Giveaway. The winner of my little Giveaway is DONNA MILLS.  CONGRATS, DONNA! Message me at Vicweave@aol.com with your addy and I'll send you a box full of Springtime goodies!

I'm making some dolls for our OFG Team's newest Celebration coming up at the end of March. I'm so excited to show them to you! Something different from me and a pattern I'm using from Sweet Meadows Farm. I'll also have a couple of new painted items from Plum Purdy's newest book. I think it's the last 'new' stuff I'll make this year. I've got to replenish my stock!

Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT day!

Achoo!!

Everything is blooming here in my neck o' the woods! My home is resounding with all of our 'achoos'!  No, we're not sick just sneezing from all of the pollen. Heaven knows Florida's got some allergens! On the bright side, the sun is shining and the weather is gorgeous! 

I finished these little bunnies and I've got them listed if you're wanting a Chocolate Bunny.

They are $7.95 each plus $5.00 shipping. I've also got a 15% coupon in my shop on your total order.

I got this in the mail this week!

Plum Purdy

SO EXCITED to get started on a few of these!

I'll be cutting some wood today to prep for another Celebration by our fabulous OFG Team.

Don't forget about my Spring Giveaway! I've made some changes on my blog so I've not been replying to your comments. Didn't mean to do that and will look into it after this Giveaway. If you've commented on here, you are entered. I appreciate any SHARING that you've done!
