Primitive Quilt Top

Well here is one thing that has been keeping me busy! I wanted new bedding and curtains but didn't want to spend a fortune. So I decided to design and make my own quilt. Well it was a bit challenging at times but I have the top done. I hope to get it all finished in the next week or so. I also made my own pattern for curtains, just like the new prim ones you see in Country Sampler. I will post picture of those later. I made my curtains out of the same material that I did the bed skirt out of. I only spent $19.00 to do 3 windows, bed skirt and used some in my quilt. I am so proud of myself ! I am also trying to get my Go Figure started for the local Art Museum. I am making a figure out of recycled material for an Art show. I love recycling things and turning them into ART!! So fun to think of ways to use old junk. I will post some pictures when I get this going. Hugs

HAPPY EASTER

Wishing everyone a very Happy Easter. I hope you enjoy your families and friends. Be safe if you are traveling. Have a Blessed Day!! Hugs

Spring Break!

I have not posted for ever! We are on spring break this week and it is wonderful. The bad thing is I am spending money like crazy. We went to see Alice on Wonderland in 3D yesterday. It was wonderful. The funny thing was the movie seemed so blurry in the background at times. I thought I am never going to pay this much to watch a 3D movie again. Well 3/4 of the way through my kids said mom turn your glasses upside down. Well the movie was way better! I don't know if the glasses were screwed up or what. Well we kept our glasses and I am going to watch it in 3D again to see the whole thing they way it was meant to be!!

I have been busy remodeling my front bathroom. What a job!! Sanding the texture off the wall, what was I thinking to do this in the first place. I am putting paper on the bottom half that looks like an old barn, I am lovin it! I hope to be done by the weekend except the new floor. No sure when we will be putting that in. Ta Ta for now!

Basketball Tourney Time

This my my baby, boy does she love to play basketball! She is on fire!! Tourney starts tomorrow and I hope they win. My son Blake is not in to playing sports. Makayla makes up for both of them. I can't get anything created for running to practice and games. I love to watch her play, she steals the ball and is off like a rocket! This is only her first year to play. She plays her heart out and I hope the girls win tomorrow. Good Luck Lady Mustangs! Hugs

Will Spring ever come?

I don't know about you but I am ready for spring. I need some sunshine and warmer temps. I am having a hard time getting motivated and creative. It is snowing here again today,but not supposed to get much more than an inch. The cardinals in the snow at our feeders in the back are just beautiful! The last few days we have had freezing fog! It has been stunning out side but makes me feel like I live in an Arctic zone. It is almost like crystal trees! I had to take some pictures, still playing with my new camera. Enjoy Mother Natures stunning Artwork! Hugs

So Excited! I am in Art Doll Quarterly

I finaly got my copy of ADQ and I am so excited! Cloth and Clay submited to the upcycle challenge and we got published. That is my witch on the right :)I am so happy and I think this is a wonderful group of dolls. So if you get the magazine be sure to check it out! Hugs

Love Patch Bracelet

I think this is my fav so far. I love making things that are One of a Kind when it comes to jewlery. I have some pieces you will not see anywhere else! wink :) My daughter thought at first it didn't have enough bling to it. She said mom it just doesn't look like you! Well I didn't make it for myself but she was right. I added some patches a wire to the heart and had to have some bead dangling. I think it looks much better. What do you think? Hugs
