Happy Friday! and a freebie..........

Hi Blog Friends!
 
We've been having such nice weather..... sunny days and cool nights.
It's really feeling like Fall.
 
Thought I'd pop in and share
a few of the final Fall/Halloween crafts I finished up this week.
 
Witch Boot display with mice.
My own design.
Mice are still a big sell for me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ghost door doll- 
Pattern by Kentucky Primitives.
These were a lot of work, but the result is well worth the effort.
I did leave off the ghost hat in the original pattern,
because I personally liked it better without.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
And these beautiful prim Sunflowers.
Pattern by Willow Creek Crossing.
 
 
 They look so real in person.
Again they are a lot of work, but the result is amazing!
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I haven't offered any freebies or giveaways this year.
(shame on me)
So, I thought I'd share
 this witch boot bowl filler doodle I drew and made
for my selling booths this year.
 
They've been quite popular for me.
 
Hopefully you can click on the pic above and save or print.
Embellish and paint however you like!

 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wishing you a great weekend!
Get out and enjoy the weather!
Blessings,

Hi Blog Friends!
Gosh, time just keeps flying by~ doesn't it!
 
There's a crisp cool feeling in the air the past few mornings
and I'm already noticing changes in the tree leaves.
 
The Farmer's Almanac says we'll have a cooler than usual Fall and a harsher Winter this year.
The wooly bears (caterpillars) are out and so far I've only seen solid brown one's.
I think that's a sign the Almanac is right.
 I'm just not ready for cold weather yet.
I'm a sunny and warm weather kinda girl.
 
I've been busy making all kinds of Fall items.
Some old favorites, that I won't bore you with pics of.
You can go back to last years posts if you'd like to see them.
 
Here's a few new items I'm offering in my selling booths this year.
All patterns can be found at Patternmart or Etsy.
 
Black cat and pumpkin~ pattern by Chestnut Junction.

Witch Brimly~ pattern by Chestnut Junction.

Elvira and Winthrop~ pattern by Soft in the head.

Gurtie picks a winner~ pattern by Ravens Haven.
She's been a GREAT SELLER for me this year!
Not found at patternmart, but at Etsy.

Halloween Goodie Bag~ pattern by Blue Moon Beginnings.

Waverly Witch~ pattern by Chestnut Junction.
 
I have lots more in the works.
 
I've also become addicted to Pinterest.
I know I'm behind the times.LOL.
There are so many inspiring pictures~ I wish I could spend hours on there,
but then I'd never get anything done.......
If you'd like, you can visit my boards here~Primsbyjean
 
Thanks for stopping by~
Have a Blessed Prim Day!

Thank You to Debbie over at Woolensails

Hi Blog Friends!
 
Well another yard crawl has come and past.
The weather was pretty rainy, but that did not stop the die hard yard sale customers from coming out.
All in all it was a great weekend and I love seeing all my wonderful customers.
I'm already looking forward to next year!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yesterday I received a wonderful package in the mail full of all kinds of goodies from Debbie over at Woolensails BlogSpot.
I entered her blogaversary giveaway and won the grand prize.
Just look at all the goodies!

Beautifully made stitcheries and yummy smelling candle.

This ones my favorite;o)

Three great patterns I'm looking forward to making.

And beautiful prim wool and fabrics.
 
Thank you so much Debbie. I love it all.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hopefully I'll be able to do more postings now that the crawl is over.
I have so many things I want to make for fall and Christmas.
I'll try to share as I go along.
 
Thanks for stopping by!
Prim Blessings,
