A Little of This and That!



             
Meet Cate......after I created her I made her cousin. ...

Miss. Bella and then her sister.....

                                                                     

Betsy

She has her sewing basket full ...I might have to help her with projects ♥️!!

Made a little quilt for "Lori DeJarnatt" www.Humblequilts.blogspot.com  she was hostess for her annual doll quilt swap and was my partner. 


Also, made a applique needle keeper for her.


Yesterday, we visited a green house ....today we started to brighten up our front porch 


And a few other areas. Love this season !!



Our veranda needs a few more plants...but will work on planting some pots tomorrow. This is a fun spot to relax, stitch or read a good book!

I just took out some sticky buns from the oven for Sundays breakfast ....so tempting not to sneak a taste...do you think Gene would notice if a small piece was missing???

Enjoy the beautiful Spring weather this weekend. Those April showers we had brought us May flowers!

Hug's, Carolyn

    So cute, and their dresses are precious!
    I don't think I'd be able to stop with just a taste of those sticky buns! What a treat these will be for breakfast.

    Your doll creations are adorable. And the quilt you made for Lori is very cute, with those little Prairie Points.
    You always make the entrance to your home so inviting--no matter the season.
    Those buns look yummy. I'd notice immediately if some were missing!! :)

    Your dolly friends are just adorable! Your front and back porch area look so nice. I haven't planted anything yet.....the weather needs to settle a bit more for me. We have wind like no other out here in the back 40!!!! I remember that needle case.....love that too! But I LOVE everything you do! Hugs! and Happy Spring!

It's That Time Of The Year Again!!

Fanny likes decorating for fall ...she has her little pumpkin pale and ready for beggars night!      Made this quilt a few years ago. One of my favorites!  "Bad and Happy Jack's" a Fon's and Porter design. Some are happy and some are bad🤐 Love the candy corn fabric. He is a happy camper!! He is not happy..where is my candy corn! Tee hee 🐱maybe the cat ate it!! Another must is Mr. Scarecrow. I was in a swap and "Montana Weber" was my partner. We made and exchanged three pumpkins for each other. These are the ones I received from her yesterday...look who has them now!!  She should receive hers Monday. A wagon full of pumpkins.   Miss Witchie saying.... "Boo & Scare"! Always fun to display the c.c. stitch pillow hanger. A "Lizzie High" design.   Made some Salsa a few weeks ago ..still displayed on the counter. 😊 Below are the Hummingbirds trying to fatten up before going South on there long journey.   Have a great month!  Stay safe. ...

Hello, How Are You All Doing?

Thinking about all of you during these trying time and hope all is good with you and your family. Found this statement with a special message for all of us giving up "Hope". Thought I would share with you as to what I have been doing while being home with Gene and keeping busy! Made this shoulder bag to hold my cell, necessary information, and my mask fits around the strap,---  "handy"! Made a new small patchwork bed quilt for "Miss Hitty"!    We have 6 grandchildren. Three boys and three girls. Three grandaughters have graduated from ISU . One grandson is sophomore at ISU and other grandson is attending UNI . I have made graduation quilts for all six. Our youngest grandson, Joe graduated from high school this spring and is now attending ISU in Ames, Iowa.  Had fun finding plaids and ISU prints for incorporating into the design of this quilt...a few of these plaid came from grandpas shirts....this is "our" secret,  okay!!  Joe (3) licking the bea...

New Year, New Ideas, Projects To Work On and Packing up Christmas 2016!

Image
planning my next projects... Digging into my lace box, so much fun! I layered some lace trims together getting ready to make a zipper pouch. This pouch inspired me and was pictured on Rag Bag Gals Group (on Face Book).    Then, I saw these two bunnies...more fun ideas! Started this table topper before Christmas ---as you see, didn't get it finished. I plan to finish up and it will be ready to use next year!  Christmas treasures of 53 years ready to be packed up. Here we are--- Mrs and Mr Clause. Santa is saying "Bye, Bye  and Happy New Year Dear Friends." Sharing with each other our sewing,quilting projects and fun craft ideas is always so inspirational! Thank you. Hug's, Carolyn
