Harvest Craft Show

I can take a few days off now that my fall show is over. Next one will be Dec. 1-3. The pictures will show you what has been keeping me busy. I hope all you crafters out there are having good sales.

Hugs,

No Sew Dust Ruffle

I'm finally starting to feel a little productive once again and got into a creative mood this past week. I made a long awaited dust ruffle to go with our summer coverlet by tucking the fabric between the mattress and box springs and hand gathering. It's a small red and white check which is hard to tell from the picture. We have a king size bed so it took 7 yards, which I cut in half to make it full enough. One day I may actually gather it on my machine, but right now I have too many other fun things I want to do.

I also finished two more mice pincushions and a snowman bottle I started last year! It turned out so cute I have a production line going now. Will post those pictures later.

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend.

Hugs,

Karen

Tassels and Pincushions

Just thought I should show some of the things that I make in my creative chaos! All the little mice sold, some of these tassels and the pale yellow cottage pincushion.

I will make up more mice pin keeps for my next show, The House of Santa Mouse.

I'm also working on hand painted snowman pendants and some with just an image inserted. It's such an eye strain painting in a one inch area. Think I should paint big and reduce the size to fit. Hey, that will be my project next week!

Have a great week, all you creative crafters!

Mouse Pin Keepers

I do a craft show the first weekend in December called The House of Santa Mouse. Thought these cute pin keeps would fit right in. I have a couple of fall themed ones too, which I'll put out to sell at the Fall Harvest Festival in Maryville,TN. That will be Oct.8,9 & 10. I changed the pattern a little to fussy them up. Funny how real mice scare us but the stuffed ones are so cute!
