Some goodies I have bought lately...and a new offering

Good Wednesday Morning friends!!  Half way to the weekend.. Woohoo!!  Well, it snowed more last night and boy was it slick out this morning...saw quite a few wrecks on the way to drop my little girl off to get her hair cut and on my way to work...It started out really windy this morning and now I see blue skies and I think the snow might be melting.. Yay!! 

I have bought myself a few things lately and wanted to share a couple photos with you.

Here are all those pillows finished.  Look at all the cute names that children call their Grandma's or Nana's...

and after these were stained I had some energy to make something new.. teehee...

Here are my Primitive Flag Ornies / Tucks

I think they turned out so cute..

These are made to order as long as I have this fabric available.

Here are Details if interested. 

Well, I suppose I should get to work....since I am here.. why not.. teehee...

Have a great day! 

Hugs, Tina

I haven't been slacking.. I promise..teehee

Good morning..  I got some sleep last night and feel so much better today and my arm isn't as sore either.. Yay!!

I finsihed up some shamrocks that I made for a Facebook friend

and I thought I had better take photo of what I have been working on....  don't want you to think I am slacking..  teehee... oh boy, I haven't even gotten this post published yet and I "might" have 4 more orders for these in blue fabrics..

Here are some that I finished so you can see what they will look like:

Looks like we are finally getting our winter.. Supposed to snow more tomorrow..  I wanted this in November and December not now.. Yikes..  Sure wish I could just stay home and not have to go out in it unless I want to.. Some day.....

Have a great day friends!!

I have been a stitchin machine...

Happy Monday Afternoon...  Well, the last couple weeks have been pretty long and hard.  Bre was so amazing and helped with pretty much everything for her friends funeral and wake.. It all turned out beautiful and it was so nice to see so many turning out to show their love....but I am sure glad it's over... She was so sad the whole week and that made me sad... All the crying got my migraine acting up for a couple days..darn things...

Other than that... I finished a couple friend pillows.  This picture of it on my shelf is sort of dark so I think I might take another...  If inteterested, you can find the details here

 but not much of anything else to offer as I got 9 orders for my Nana pillows... It is so fun to see all the special names that Grandma and Nana's are called...  I got them all stitched up, stuffed and tonight I have to close them up and stain them...  Once they are all done I will post photos so you can see the cute names..

On Saturday it was so windy and snowing and just miserable.. but.... I wanted to go look at some antique shops we hadn't been to yet so we braved the weather but...as I was walking out to my truck to get my gloves, I slipped and fell..  Boy is my arm sore still... My sewing arm too.. uh oh....  Other than a little scrape on my hand and it was a little embarrassing...I think I will heal up quick..  As for the shopping, I was on the hunt for some old flash cards with words on them but do you think I could find any.. Nope.. darn...  I did get a small package of old valentines and some vintage lace and trim...but nothing too exciting...

I can't wait for work to be over today.. I didn't get any sleep last night for some reason and I have been soooo tired today... I even closed my eyes for a while at lunch which I don't think helped, I was even more groggy after that...teehee...  I think this girl is going to call it an early night tonight...

Well, that's about it for this post.. Hope it all finds you doing well... I am sure glad you decided to stop by and visit.. Until next time...

Hugs, Tina

Happy Valentine's Day

My Mom gave me this card for Valentine's Day and it was just too adorable not to share..  I love it!! 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Antique shopping, orders done..dress fitting..

Monday, oh why do you come so fast.. teehee..  I actually had a productive weekend considering all of the sadness Bre was going through..  She stayed with us Friday night and then Saturday we hit a couple antique shops where I got an old wood and metal sled and an old lacey tablecloth.. I could have bought so much more but I was trying to be good.. Now I just have to figure out how to display my sled..  I have seen some cute ideas in the past with some ice skates and maybe a wreath... Any ideas??  I will take some photos and post them.  Bre got a couple of really cute wood barrels to put outside to plant in..  Then we took her out for lunch..  Bre left to meet some friends who were all getting together.. I spent the rest of the night finishing up some more orders.  Here they are:

Glad I got those done on Saturday so we had Sunday to have fun at Bre's dress fitting.. All of the girls in the wedding were there as well as my friend with her cute little daughter, Saige.  She is going to be Breanna's flower girl.  I was so glad everyone showed up and hoped it would take Bre's mind off of losing her friend if just for a little while.. 

It is the worst feeling to know that you can't just wave your magic wand and make all your child's sadness go away...  The only thing we can do is be there for her...  I try to be strong for her but when she cries, it tears me up inside and my eyes start filling up with water...  In fact, I had to pause writing this for a minute cuz Bre called.. She has been writing what she wants to say at his funeral.. oh boy..  it was hard enough to hear her read it and hear how upset she is on the phone, let alone seeing her reading it at the funeral.. So proud of how strong she is and how hard it is for her to get up there and say something but she is doing it for him...

Now that my face and eyes are probably red from talking to her on the phone and typing this, I better finish this up and get a hold of myself... since I am at work... teehee...

Thank you so much for listening and visiting me here...  Have a blessed day!

Hugs, Tina

Dress fitting and some sad news....

Well, today started off to be a great day...  It is Friday so it has to be great!!  Got almost to lunch then my daughter called and said that a friend she has known since grade school had passed away.  She is taking it pretty hard and when she is sad... I am sad....  Her fiance is out of town for the weekend for hockey so she is going to stay with us..  I don't want her to be alone.  I had planned on having a whole weekend to get caught up on all my orders but she comes first...so...  now to keep her busy.. haha..  unfortunately she doesn't love prims as much as me or I might talk her into helping me but nope..

There are a couple little antique shops we want to go to and then we have her 1st dress fitting on Sunday...  It will be great for her to have all her gals around her and the excitement of the wedding to keep her mind off of this sad news at least for a while..

I hope you have a great weekend.  Take care of yourself and each other!!

Hugs, Tina

Hope your morning and afternoon is going great.  We have had a beautiful couple of days, definitely not our normal winter...  I am sooo lovin it. Makes me ready to go camping already.. teehee

What have I been doing??  Between wedding fun and filling orders, I have been a busy little bee...I have even decided that I won't be doing any craft shows this spring.  I just didn't do as well as hoped last year and just don't have the time to stock up on a bunch of new goodies when I am filling so many orders....  I will miss visiting with all of the other crafters and customers but I just can't justify paying the booth fees and not selling enough to make it worth my while.  So...  I hope I can keep busy enough online to make up for it.. 

Here are a few new things I have made that are for sale:

Hope you all have a blessed day!  Hugs, Tina
