PAFA Fall Celebration to take place August 28 - September 17

Good Tuesday morning blog readers! I just wanted to inform you of an upcoming celebration that will be taking place in Etsy. The PAFA, Primitive and Folk Artist Team, will be having a Fall celebration beginning August 28 - Sept 17 and will feature ...anything and everything... that has to do with the fall season! Feel free to browse if you are in the fall mood and ready to change your decor. from summer to fall very soon. All you have to do is go to the Etsy site and put a designated set of letters in the search, that will round up everything that is to be taking place in this celebration from the PAFA members, and collect them into one large list of items. It is that simple! I do not currently have the designated letters yet....but will pass them onto you when they become available! (These letters will not be available to me until the celebration is about to begin....so I will not be able to give them to you much before Aug. 28th.) Good things happen to those that wait and this will be no different. Be watching and I will post is right here... those special letters that will find this celebration for you once I have received them myself! Thanks for your patience!

I intend to take part in this celebration and each of us can provide 10 items, I have my 10, to be part of this. I would assume the number of creations will be many so don't miss this one. I will be back and fill in the blanks for you so you too can view what these great artists have been working on! I promise you ...it is NOT a waste of time and will a be a fall wonderland for any country, primitive, antique enthusiast out there!

I also am working on teacup pincushions and have some beautiful cup and saucer pincushions that I will be posting soon! Are you at a loss of where to put your pins? Are you tired of having your feet finding the pins that fall on the floor or sticking them in the seats of your chairs until a better place is found? Does your pet manage to find them before you do? Has your dog thought his name has changed to "Pincusion" , "Pin Holder" or "Needle Keeper"? I'll have available a number of decorative/handmade pincushions available for the sewer in your life very soon in my shop and keep your friends, family and pets safe! Be watching for this addition!

Santa #1 is now ready for sale in my Shop!

Hello everyone! How are you all doing today? I hope you all are doing fine! During my last post I stated that I was hoping to have some Santas done and ready for sale by this week....well I have my first set of Santas done and they indeed are in my Etsy shop and ready for sale. These are the cutest Santas and are from a pattern of Ragg Bagg Babies. These little guys are made to be pin keeps/ pincushions but are so cute you may just like one to admire and to put in a place that is special to you like a prim basket or rocker! This pattern also has a snowman and witch that can be made with it and I would like to work on the snowman next. The witch is just so cute too and can be made just into an Annie. Having done the first doll I am sold that this is just the most interesting construction I've ever done and can't wait to make more!






I said that I wanted to get a "couple" Santas done this week and believe it or not I did.. but I ran out of wool and just have to put the hair and beard on the last Santa to be able to make it available to the people that shop Etsy. Again, I hope to get the final Santa done by the end of this week, fingers crossed that the wool arrives in time! Be watching for the 2nd Santa that will be posted in my shop. This one will be a very folkart doll and can be used as a door greeter or wall hanger as well and was a hit the last time I made these so be watching! I hope that you all are having a wonderful day and until my next post.....
