While the big cat's away...

While Big Cat Daddy is gone, I have been VERY busy with my WIPS and some new things. I am hoping for a totally Handmade Christmas this year! The pumpkin pillow above is finally finished!

I am thinking I should have photographed more detail of the pillow above, I love to mess with "unconventional" ways. Like Vintage and new fabrics randomly quilted together, and then randomly embellished with my creations ( crocheted motifs) or Vintage buttons, or fun trims and embroidery. Keep checking back as I plan to update the blog all week with the fun I have been having! Oh 41 is going to be great!

Cabin-cookies-Pumpkin patch

So this is the finished product of the cabin. Looks pretty good I think. I finally saw it last night for the first time. I think Rusty and his friends did a good job.
Now, these cookies...pumpkin chocolate chip. My sister can cook, I am telling you! Go to her blog Cedar Tree Tea and check out her fabulous life! anyway, I tried them and the girls love them. Easy & delicious, my kind of cookies, or cooking anyway!
Sophia is finally growing hair, and she went poopy on the potty yesterday, so she got her pink bubble gum! She is talking so much and growing so fast! I am just having so much fun with her!
Thursday I went to the pumpkin patch with Jurnee's class. We had a great time! I am so blessed to have 2 jobs that allow me to still be active in my girls' lives! Kindergarten is so fun, and we have adopted the Saturday tradition of our good friends, the Dishers. We have made Saturday Jammie day! Have a great weekend!

Feeling a little fallish

We are so incredibly busy around here, with I don't know what, I guess it is just the home with two small children.
So, this potholder is something I came up with awhile back, and while cleaning & reorganizing my craft room, I found this unfinished little number, and decided to finish it, I am pleased with it, and plan to make more for my Etsy shop.
Speaking of the Etsy shop, I created the shop last year in September I think, and had lots to sell, before I got it all in the shop, I sold it. So I will be more prepared this time around, and I have a few other things coming along. I will report when new items are listed, probably in a couple of weeks.

Update on Rusty's dad, he is getting by, still in the hospital, so far the surgeries he had last week have been successful, he gets rods in his back on Friday.
