Quick hello and peek at my cute border in kitchen...



Hello all ! Hoping you are enjoying this week before Easter, and whatever Spring Weather happens to be in your neck of the woods..:)
I had purchased this border about a year agoand just last night decided to put it up on the one wall near my table in the kitchen...I just love it because it has that " old farmhouse kitchen" feel....
Other than that not a whole lot going on,,,waiting and counting down the weeks till my newest Grandson is born,,,My oldest daughter had many miscarriages in the past...She never was able to go past 6 weeks..Well, God is sooo Good and loving and He has blessed this pregnancy...She is at 36 weeks and baby is perfectly fine and dandy..I'm so happy and thankful !!


Have a super blessed day !!

Some talented lady....



You know I always love when you gals use my designs for hooking, punching, wool applique or even stitchery..I get so tickled and I am always amazed by your talent!
I have been bad lately and haven't posted some wonderful pieces I've seen using my designs...Soooo, here are a few rugs that were hooked by Sherry @ From Sherry's Heart on ebay and here is her BLOG ...Aren't they wonderful...go ahead and bid if you feel the urge...lol

Hugs,
Robin

Wow....goodies in the mail today !



I was so giddy to have received 2 goodies in my mail today...I bought a small hooked rug from Betty Dekat " @Primitive Betty's" last week and hung it way up on my studio wall over the window. It's the first thing you see when you walk into the room...It is such an awsome hit and miss multi colored mat.Sooo...When I saw her left overs from a craft show she had done, I fell in love with this needle punched "primitive" tuck pillow...I had to ask if it was one of the peices she would be selling, I had to have it...Look at the prim perfect colors...it is awsome !!!
Then , reading my blog lists and looking at what others are up to, I happened to see that Lori Brechlin @ Notforgotten Farm had extra copies of the new first issue of "Primitive Quilts and Projects" Magazine for sale....So..I got one...The projects in here are so excellent !! I wish I knew how to quilt, but there are a few projects for other fabric arts such as wool applique and punch needle,which is Lori's project, I know I am doing for sure !!
Now, I'm off to find the perfect spot for my pillow and browse the magazine for a second time around....
Have a great day,

Robin
