     Well, the idea was put the Etsy shop on vacation to work on crafts for a Nov. 7th show....I went shopping with a friend today and was in TJMaxx for 3 HOURS!!!  Now I'm up at 1:14am letting everyone know I'm not crafting!!! 
     I have been cutting a quilt into small stockings.  I just hate to cut up old quilts.  As a quilter who starts lots of quilts, but never seems to finish any, I know how much time, sweat, tears, stitches and blood goes into one, it pains me to take one & cut,cut,cut.   The only ones I chop-up have no other uses, I promise!  I have a few that really should be cut up & re-purposed, but I keep thinking, I can SAVE them.  You know, take the quilt top off the ratty old back, throw away the old and tattered batting.  Repair all the holes, by hand of course, and put back together with a new back & warm n' fuzzy middle batting.  Come on!  I don't have that kind of time, so I'm just packing them away for when I get REALLY old or REALLY bored! 
    Oh, I also just burnt a whole batch of chocolate chip cookies!!!  :o(   I'll just have to drink my milk alone.

Try to have a great week, shop away, eat fresh cookies (not burnt ones) and stay healthy!!!  XoxO, heidi

It's been too long!  Sorry about the delay, but things get sooooo out of control!  Time just flys by and POOF!  It's October!!  Yeah!!  Halloween, I can't wait to show you what I've done!  They are 2 Halloween ornies from Vintage Postcards on cardboard with shiny silver accents !

Too Busy for This

Well, that seems a bit harsh, but I have been way to busy to post anything worth while. Just sent my baby off to college, and he took all my $$$! JK, well not really. Anywho, I have not had time to scour all my usual places for my great "finds" or "treasures", whichever you prefer. The last time I was "out & about" I did grab something that I am pretty sure I am keeping to myself, unless I need some "cash 4 college"! Hey, the government needs to start THAT program!!! Or do you count all that Federal Government forms we filled out earlier this year? I am getting totally off the subject here. My fingers can't seem to keep up with the head either! I did find this great 1950's (60's) red half apron that I LOVE!! It is in very good shape & the white thread is still white, sometimes you get items that have bled onto the white's. Hope now I can get back to posting at least ONCE a WEEK!! C U L8TR! XoxO, H
