Happy Monday Prim Friends!
It's rainy and a bit chilly here in the valley,
but at least no snow!
I think Spring has finally sprung around here~
the grass is getting a beautiful green~
the tulips, daffodils, and lilies will be in full bloom soon~ 
I love this time of year~ seeing the Earth come back to life.
Makes me smile~
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I watched Ann Curry's story last night
on climate change. Y'all may have seen it too.
It was a real eye opener as to how much our planet has changed.
I just wish the big corporations
that spew large amounts of CO2 
would take notice and change the way they do business.
I don't like to get political on my blog,
but the Government should be more involved with
this disaster waiting to happen,
rather than concerning and involving itself
with the everyday Joe homeowners.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have two new patterns added to my Etsy shop
 
Just in time for Easter~
This is Daisy ~ 12" prim rabbit.
She's a free standing stump doll, with pose able ears.
This is a quick and easy pattern to make
and includes how to make the flower she holds. 
 
18" Civil War Soldier~
Mid May is the 150th  Anniversary of the Civil War.
Our town hosts the re-enactment of the battle of New Market,
bringing thousands of people from all over to watch.
I want to offer a selection of items to my customers
and will be working on a few new patterns for the event.
So, if your a Civil War collector
be watching for some new patterns in my Etsy Shop.
(Oh, and the beautiful God Bless America
can arrangement in the picture
was made by my friend Sheila of Country Impressions on Etsy.
Stop by and see what other beauties she has to offer.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've also been trying to learn the art of rug hooking.
Please don't laugh or be to critical of my loops~
I have a long way to go,
but am enjoying the journey~
 
 
It's rather large and
will probably take me the rest of the year to finish. lol....
As it progresses,
I'll be sure to share.
~~~~~~~~~~
Have a great week~
Thanks for stopping by~
Prim Blessings,
       Jean

  1. Oh, Daisy and the Civil War soldier are both so cute. Your rug hooking looks good. That is a craft that I have yet to attempt :)

  3. Good morning Jean,
    I didn't see the segment on Climate Change but wish I had.
    Your two new creations are wonderful - love the soldier!
    I'm a beginner hooker and I must say your work looks wonderful. It's so much fun isn't it?

  4. Hi Jean! Noticed a preview for Ann Curry's special. Love her, but hard for me to watch on that subject - the threat is so real it really upsets me. And to think people don't believe it. So much we take for granted. Love your new bunny girl - what character! The civil war doll is awesome. ~*~Lisa
