The faster I go the behinder I get!!!!

I tell ya, it seems like I just get caught up and then I take on twice as much, LOL.........

Here are a few of the things I have been working on besides everyday chores, my small part on the addition and 2 days in Billings, Mt. on a shopping trip (I know, I know but somebody had to do it).

These are additions to my Etsy shop.

4 really cute snow flake soaps, each is 3 oz and they come in a pretty royal blue mess bag.
Each bar has glitter on it, so they will sparkle just like fresh fallen snow and they smell so good, with Winterberry fragrance oil. You can check them out here.

















Also on my Etsy is
another cute cell
phone pouch.
















I also began work on a tote for one of my grand children, it has lots and lots and lots of pieces, but I think (at least I hope) it will come out good, once the first is made I will know if I will do it again. It is by Marilynn Bilyeu and you can see it here. I will post about it when I am done.

I think that is it for right now. If you'd like to see the progress on my studio check here.

Celebrating 99 years

Our little town, just celebrated it's 99th birthday. We began our day with a picnic (I didn't get pictures) at a nearby camp ground/park/ historical site. After the picnic we returned to town for vendor booths, horse races, parade and more. Check out the website for Hyattville. Here you will find alot of fun things that go on around here and see some of the faces that make up this piece of the earth Kirk and I call home.

I worked for a couple months to prepare for the day, making 64 bars of soap and 5 quilts. Here is my "booth" table....it was not very busy since this is the first year for vendor booths. I really can not complain with about 30 or so people who came by I sold 15 bars of soap and a quilt. I think I will do it again next year, and with a whole year to prepare.........I plan to have more items.















The day also included a mixture of weather, hot (about 100*) sunny, thunder and lightening, clouds, wind and rain. Yes, it rained and pretty good for about 10 minutes, it was nice since it cooled things off, though we did have to cover everything up and hold down our umbrella's and awnings as the wind tried to blow them away.

I did get pictures of the parade, it was very small but alot of fun.

Here we have the future of Hyattville, they are so adorable.
Sorry this picture is a little blurry, I forgot to take the micro setting off. Sigh.














Now some of the other parade entries. Check out the background, isn't it a pretty place. We feel so blessed to be able to live here, each time I look abound I thank the Father. BTW, the house in the back ground is the one Kirk helped build. If you know of anyone who wants a new home with beautiful details, let them know this new 4 bedroom house is for sale.











































































I hope you have enjoyed the pictures, I have more but did not want to over do it.

After a full day, the bands began and we danced in the street until 12:30.....well, some did, Kirk and I quit at about 10:30.....we came home and crashed....a long good day, and a good nights sleep.....

I have put the quilts and soaps that I did not sell on my Etsy shop, with hopes of them finding new homes.

Butterfly RR & Etsy

A couple weeks ago I was sharing with you my block that had returned home from a RR trip.
I have begun to do some work on it and here you can see the yellow rose vine I have added to the body of the main butterfly. Also in view is the beginning of the paisley being stitched to the
bottom set of wings, that is complete now and I will share it with you in the next day or so.

I have spent the day on the computer, making labels for shower gel and for Bryce's I Spy quilt. Not only that but I have added some new and beautiful soaps (if I do say so myself) to my
Etsy Shop, yes an unabashed advertisement. I hope you will go and check things out. Shower gel is next to be added. There is still time to get them for Christmas. My next assignment is to print pictures and make an album for Kirk so he can show people his cabinets.

I hope to get the binding on Bryce's quilt in the next day or so and then complete Destiny's quilt.

I think this next year I am going to make stockings (did I already tell you this?) for everyone in the family, much smaller projects that hopefully I can complete quicker. We'll see. With all the stocking I have been seeing it makes me want to do this.

Ok, back to putting items on Etsy.

No Stitching today

Here are some more of the soaps I like to make















A friend requested a gift set, so I have been playing
the last couple of days in the kitchen with shower gel,
soaps and will probably make some milk bath tomorrow.

All are goats milk soap, with some soap painting.
I also cut up some beautiful colors and created the
stained glass soaps below. I will be adding some of these
to my Esty shop.















Here are the snowflakes, packages and acorn designs.
