New Pattern - Penny Tree Farm

 

I think I must have come up with the colors for this sampler based upon the way my grass looks this summer from the drought.  Could be worse it could be blue which would mean the snow is flying....  Have a great labor day!  Linda

 

$8.00 (plus shipping)

Love the frame!

I just love this frame wish I could find a few more.  Sometimes I just enjoy stitching a plain old basic alphabet sampler.........

Couple of Samplers Finished

What do you do when you are in a car for over 3000 miles..... me and my family just came back from a long trip to Glacier National Park in Montana....from Nebraska that is quite a drive but what a fun time we had.  Here is a few samplers I finished while on the road trip.....as well as my favorite vacation picture. 

Never Fix Your Jet Ski in the Garage

Here are some pictures from one of our rentals that caught fire last night.  The neighbor decided to do some repair work to his jet ski in the garage next to the gas can.....in 20 years of having rentals we've never received this call in the middle of the night...."my neighbor started the house on fire".  Luckily no one was hurt and we are now waiting to hear if our side is salvagable (its the unit on right side). 

Hot, Hot, Hot

Spent the weekend camping with friends for our Annual Christmas in July camp out.  We went to Lake Perry, Kansas and did a little sail boating, traditional Christmas meal and enjoying the hot, hot, hot   weather........here are a few pictures from our weekend.  I did spend some quality time in the camper since it was so hot and finished a sampler and binding a hooked rug. Hope all of you had a good weekend also.  Linda

Geometric Floral Hooked Rug

Just put the last strip in this Geometric Floral Pattern by Designs by the Lady.  I still need to finish the edges and then the hard part deciding where to put it......so many hooked rugs not enough walls..... Hope everyone had a great Father's Day!  Linda

From Craft Table to Kitchen Table

Many, many years ago me and my sister did craft shows....and then came kids and shows just don't happen anymore.  So a couple of months ago I am cleaning out my basement and found the table top we would use at our shows.  I hauled the table top out to my husband's shop and asked if he would try and build me a kitchen table from it.....how fun is that......I love it.....

So while he's been working on that, I've been working on a very large hooking project (this is Janice Johnson's from Wooley Woolen - "My World").  I'm only about 1/4 of the way done on mine.

But what I've really been up to is this

The Happy Place!!!!!!  Linda
