What I have been making!

Hope everyone had a happy and safe holiday! My husband and I went to our farmhouse in WV. We

took a drive on the back roads in the country and ate at a little country diner. I love doing that.

 As you know I love bonnets, I have 5 bonnet patterns and can only figure out 3 of the patterns,

I have a hard time with patterns I am such a visual person. And one pattern gets me so frustrated that I am

practically in tears.  But I just bought a pattern from Deb from, Pilgrims and Pioneers Primitives,

it is a beautiful pattern, and yah, I figured it out. I have made 7 of these bonnets. Plus a few other goodies.

These bonnets look great hanging on a peg rack, but really

good on the side of a cabinet door.

They have lined prims that make them nice.

A little doll dress and bonnet set, I just need to go

out in  my yard and find a stick for a hanger.

I just thought I would try making a simple bag holder,

I want to make one with my grandbabies photo on it for my daughters Birthday, shhhhh!

The bonnets are between 24-25" in length, and they are $20.00 each if interested.

Order Arrived

Candle mat and pin keep, so awesome!

Look at all the old pins, I love them.

I had ordered a pin keep and candle mat from Brenda at "Pine Tree Prims" , Brenda is a wonderful crafter

and does awesome work. Her stitches are perfect. I love her pin keeps and candle mats!!

  Well what did that girl go and do she sent me lots of extra things.  The grapevine wire, several

packs of  old needles, a template and wonderful prim labels. I can't wait to make something with

the labels, I think I will put some labels on jars and use the cloth tags for towels.

You are a wonderful prim friend. Check out Brenda's blog!!!

Winner!

I was fortunate enough to be one of the winners of 

Laura's Giveaway   over at "Rhodes Creations"! I won one of her custom made

towels. She had 5 winners for her towels and we could pick a towel of our choice.

I was especially excited, because of the spelling of my name, I can never find anything with my

name on it. My name is spelled Lecia, but pronounced Lisa. (My mom made up the spelling).

  So of course I had Laura make me a towel that says, "Lecia's Kitchen" I told her that I wanted a towel,

with a chicken on it. And at the top could she put a checken setting on a bowl.

What do you think, PERFECT!  I love it!! Thank you Laura, I love my towel. Thank you for hosting

such a wonderful giveaway! check out Laura's blog

she makes embrodered towels, aprons, handbags, blankets just to name a few.
