Heading for Mt. Vernon, Ohio



What a thrill! We've had a last minute invitation to do the Simple Goods show on November 7th, 2009. Hope we'll see you there!

Due to unforseen opening, our name came up on the waiting list and we got a call about the show. Of course we've wanted to do the SIMPLE GOODS show. Many wonderful vendors will be there. Now, to get our goodes ready and loaded...Whoo Hoo! We're off to Ohio...

RAIN, RAIN, RAIN...



































What a year for RAIN! Another great show, but rotten weather... Of course when you have so many great vendors, toss in a beautiful Kentucky farm, then stir with a huge helping of hospitality from Jerrie & David of KENTUCKY ROOTS, a special sort of 'sunshine' happens!
Now, if we can just order up some cloudless days for our next show, Oct. 3rd in Cameron, NC.
SEE YOU THERE! (In front of the Ferguson House)

Check this out...















If you recently purchased Jill Peterson's newest book, THE SETTLEMENT, look on page 146 and you will see this BIG log cabin birdhouse. It's next to the walkway in front of Millie's guest cabin.
She bought one from us at a Kentucky show and later ordered several to offer for sale to her customers in Georgia. I guess this will be the closest we'll get to being in one of these awesome books...LOL
Giles makes the BIG cabin as well as other sizes so if you wish to order one, let us know. The BIG one is difficult to ship, but if you're near one of our shows, we'll be happy to deliver. OR, you may pick up here and visit a spell...BLESSINGS TO ALL!

LOVE IT !

Pic doesn't do it justice...I'm not a good photographer...: )


Well, I usually don't ask Giles to make stuff for me 'cause he's always busy working on orders from 'paying customers'...LOL My sewing stuff (along with other 'important' things: ) was piling up and in this small cabin, storage is not plentiful...soooo, I asked and I did receive! I LOVE IT ! It sits behind the sofa..all 6 feet of it...with 18 drawers...PERFECT for all my really important stuff. Thanks Honey!

What a challenge!



Let me tell you about this lovely hooked pumpkin! My friend, Delores does a wonderful job of hooking but she had some trouble putting the hooked sections together, so I lovingly said... " I'll see if I can do it..." WHAT WAS I THINKING????? This booger has crippled my fingers, challenged my mind and made sure that I will probably go to the 'bad place' for cussing so much...I'm not sure who came up with the instructions to put the finished hooked pieces together, but I'd be glad to revise them 'cause the original ones DON'T WORK! I sure hope my friend likes the end result...doesn't matter. I don't think she'll hook another one and I sure ain't puttin' another one together...LOL Love you Delores! : )
