New spring patterns

I know it's been feeling like JULY around here with this weird heat wave but I worked on 2 new spring patterns and finally have them ready to sell :)

First is Lady Bug Kisses, she has her very own 'antennae' and she's 12" tall when finished.

And I did this for In Grandma's Attic this year, I am selling lots of lady bugs and bees in ornies. I made them from woolfelt, they are super fast and easy to create so I thought why not make this into a fun pattern to share?

As always, they can be found on my website under patterns or over on Pattern Mart.

Have a GREAT weekend!

Craft show pictures

I wanted to show some pictures from my craft show I did a few weeks ago. I really liked my set up this time, it's hard to fit everything onto one six foot table :) Here's a booth picture:

I did alot of smaller priced items, printables using www.raggedyscrappin.com goodies and some from www.countrycharmgraphics.com and also www.ewe-n-meprintables.com GREAT stuff! Got lots of sales too!
LOVE Krista's 'souper' cans :)

What craft show could I do without some sewing items? heehee! Bunnies, chicks OH my! (and all gone!)

One of my newest products is scrabble tile and domino pendants. They have been around a while online but not at our shows; so I had a blast making these in all kinds of themes. I'll be doing more for my website very soon!

Thanks for peeking!

New Pattern release - Mouse for all Seasons

I just finished up a pattern that has been in the works for quite a while!! I've named it A Mouse for All Seasons. It's a pocket pattern - everything is made from wool or woolfelt. I've been working more with this fabric and just love the results. The mice are really nicely finished in the grey woolfelt - I'll be making more of those definitely!

I've got it on my website: http://www.homespunfromtheheart.com/store/WsDefault.asp?One=1999

And also over on Pattern Mart: http://www.patternmart.com/pattern/10518/A+Mouse+for+All+Seasons+PM

Peek a boo

The other morning i was making my coffee and getting the cat fed and getting juice, etc. ready. I was definitely still half asleep too :)

I looked up from the kitchen sink and about jumped out of my skin when I saw a pair of eyes looking back at me! I have no idea who's cat this is but he jumped up on our grill outside and was peering in to see what I was up to.

Sure is a beautiful cat! hope the owner finds him/her.

Upcoming Spring Craft Show

I am still around, just working on a craft show and I wanted to blog on it in case anyone is close by and would like to attend.

Sat. March 13th 9am - 4pm at Northampton Community College (sparta gym but you will see signs for it). I am not sure of my spot yet I should get my notification soon.

My table will be $15 and under! Yep I am challenging myself to create smaller items, some very different things too. I'll have some small dolls but some brand new things too! I'll post some pictures soon to show you.

Happy Valentine's weekend!

Wow we have had so much going on here! My poor daughter caught some stomach thing and has been sick all week. I keep trying to do a little sewing here and there but I am so tired with being up at night with her too. SOON i should have some new fun things to show off.

Checkout our snowstorm pictures from Weds! We got about 18" up here and that was on top of 6" from Saturday; EEK they are talking about another storm coming thru Monday night. Wow! Parts of PA and NJ have close to 4 FEET of snow right now, can you imagine?

This is the view from our deck - now, at this point it was still snowing and we got an additional 6 inches AFTER this!
That would be my car. By the time I went out to get it, the snow was covering my tires and doors!!!

Our neighbor's barn - still snowing!

Looked so pretty as it was happening but I hope we don't get anymore like that.

I hope you all enjoy a love-filled Valentine's day weekend!
