Yahooooo.....For Me........


Wow....It has been crazy around here...Just like it is for the rest of you out in blog land..I'm so sad summer is winding down..I haven't had much time to stitch and sew but today my house is clean, quite, with all the laundry done. I'm all alone so the day is mine I'm going to sew and then sew some more.....Yahooooo
My latest project is the candy corn... I love all the fun wools that are out now in fall colors.... I appliqued the wool and used prairie cloth for the back so I could cross stitch the alphabet.



My pin-keep is made from a Blackbird Design pattern... I love there patterns...It is stitched on tins roof linen with over dyed floss...


Who knows what will happen to this guy...He is first on my list of projectes for today... He is a freebie pattern for Stitcherhood.....

School started today around here.... This is my sweet McKenna who will be off to Kindergarten this year...

And I can't forget to post a picture of her side kick Jaxon who still has a couple of years left to hang out with grandma before he is off to school ....
I hope your day is as fun as mine, Nancy

What Do You Think About Orange?


I have been stitching, punching, dyeing, painting, stuffing and sewing.... I know this is bad to say but ordinarily orange isn't my favorite color. But this time of year I can get enough of orange...I called this guy my Old Crow and his Halloween Greetings. ( please click on the crow's picture for a better look at his greeting.)

I think everyone needs a Hallows Eve Pillow...

My punch needle was inspired by my cat Herb.....

Sampler Pumpkin....

Herb and Her Pumpkin...

Every witch needs a bag for her spells...

Lots of spooky friends...

Here are my August offering....I will be listing some of them on TDIPT Mercantile and hopefully Etsy later this evening.....
I hope you still have some time left for a little summer fun...
Thanks for stopping by, Nancy
