Home destroyed by Wildfire !

This Thanksgiving I have so much to be thankful for ! I have my life and health !!! I have not posted in awhile, as I have been trying to get adjusted to a different life. On Aug 2 we had wildfires that came thru our area, and totally destroyed our home, along with many others.  The items I had on here for sale have been destroyed along with my sewing machines and all my craft supplies.
 We are in the process of having a house plan drawn up and hope to start rebuilding soon.
I hope to have a craft room where I can start designing again !  I have lost years of collections that can never be replaced.. One of the hardest things was to loose my quilting machine that my mom had given me. The old suitcase with all the "Work Basket" magazines was also lost.

But we are looking for a brighter day ! Maybe it won't be too long and I will have other things to post on here!

Aww,,, Musical Kitten !

"Little Kitten " dress is Hand painted using Cameo fabric paints. Like to try your hand at fabric painting ? I would be happy to answer any questions.  You may purchase the fabric paint and also the kitten design from me. Until I get web site up and running you may just email me for prices.

"Lady" Hand Painted Purse !

I just couldn't resist adding a little "scrapbook effect " to this purse.... or you  might could just say, a "mixed media".  It's very fulfilling just to start out designing and not know really how it's going to come out. I usually will just experiment with supplies I have on hand and then see if I like it or not. Well, what do you think ? Is this your style ?  Give me your thoughts and ideas.!Have a certain design you would like to see on a purse?

These little pillows and apron were made with graphics from Graphics Fairy ! I did these in Feb. but thought I would post them anyway, since the purse was with them .

Crab Dress at the Beach !

Wouldn't you just love to take a dive in these waters or walk the beach ? We've  had  some very hot weather for days !! This looks so refreshing !  Our "crab " dress is made of designer cotton and is so cool and comfortable ! The long sleeves gives you protection from the sun and the cute matching hat will shade your face and eyes.

 "Crabby Crab" is appliqued on with accents done in fabric paint.(copyright 2010)

                                                          A  "JAZZY ROO" design !!

Jazzing up the Fire Engine !

Some cute little guy's room was decorated with fire engines ! So I worked real hard to get a quilt made for his shower ! This is handpainted using a fabric paint that I really do like and holds up well ! You can purchase this fabric paint from me. I don't have web site up yet, but just email me !

 Wall plaques ! I painted these on an 8 x 10 canvas, painted  edges also, so they could be hung without framing them.

Eventful year and Memory of Mom

Only two days after I had wrote my last blog my Mom passed away very sudden. I just haven't been able to get back on and post since then, it has now been over a year so am picking up the pieces, life must go on.


But even in the midst of sorrow, God sent us a beautiful miracle. We had a precious new grandson born 2 mos early. He had so many health issues the dr. didn't give us much hope that he would make it. Prayers went up all over the country.  He is now 7 mos. old and doing good. He has brought us so much sunshine.
