My precious Kitty, Miley.
It is very wet and rainy. I have been sitting in the living room on the couch with my furry doggies and just listening to the rain fall and starring at my Christmas decorations. It is peaceful. Have the TV on mute and waiting for the College FootBall game to start. What a nice quiet, peaceful and beautiful December evening. Can't remember the last time I sat alone and just listened to the rain fall and not feel stressed or anything, just peaceful. Just a beautiful and unusual feeling December night.
Lucy!
My Dog Lucy went home with my niece in New Jersey who fell in Love with Lucy when they visited over Thanksgiving holidays. She has a great home as you can see. What a sweet wonderful dog. So precious, everyone including my neighbors miss her so much.

Several people asked about printing the feedsack. This is an image from ewenmeprintables. I included the directions for printing onto fabric in the pattern. You can order pre cut freezer paper sheets to do this or just use wax paper from the local store. Iron the shiny side of freezer paper to dyed fabric, trace off a regualr size sheet of printer paper on back of freeser sheet, cut out to size of your piece of printer paper that you just traced (8.5x11), run through printer making sure it is free of strings hanging and flattened. Some printers are fussy about taking it, use one at a time, make sure you do this fabric side up or how ever your printer takes it so it will be ready to print on fabric side. All you are doing is giving the fabric enough body to go through your printer.

Got to stop and see Sandy for most of the day yesterday, came on home late in the afternoon. We got to go to a new Thrift Shop and do a few things while I was there, had a great time. saw her new pattern doll models and they are wonderful!!! Her pics just do not do her items justice, they look amazing! I saw the new Annie with the frog, her new pattern, and it is great! Here is my grandson enjoying my box of stuffing, he loves the way it feels. Dustin sat in it the whole time he watched his favorite Disney show.

Carmen, I am so very sorry for your loss. While I didn't know Sandy personally and mostly only through her blog & Face Book, she seemed like such a lovely woman, both inside and out. Someone I would have loved to meet in person.
ReplyDeleteMy heart just breaks that she didn't get to spend more time with her new little grand baby, but I'm glad she did get to hold her for the short time she had left after her birth.
Sending healing prayers to you and many hugs.
Carmen, I am so sorry to hear of Sandy's passing. She was a talented, generous crafter. The love and pride she felt for her daughter was evident in her blog posts. So was her love for you. I will pray for her family and you as you all deal with this loss.
ReplyDeleteSandy will be greatly missed. While I didn't know her personally I often checked out her blog and have purchased several of her patterns. My deepest and most heartfelt condolences to you and to her family.
ReplyDeleteCarmen, I am so sorry. I know you loved Sandy so much and she knew that, how awesome that you and her had such a special friendship. Praying for you to have strength and peace as you go through this difficult time, Sandy was so special and touched so many lives. Love and prayers, Lecia
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for your loss.She was such a creative and lovely person. Sending up prayers for her family. Amy
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss, Carmen. Those of us who have made her little dolls feel that we knew her heart, and I know she was precious to you who knew her personally. Sending love from Michigan tonight..
ReplyDeleteMy heart aches for you Carmen, I know you miss her so much but she will always live on in your heart, and no one can take that away from you♥ One day you will both be together again for all eternity (((hugs)))
