~ Hello hello! ~

 

 

 

 

 hey there!

and happy Monday to us all....

I am beginning to feel human again.

a summer cold is no fun at all, but I am on the mend!

~ still being visited by a residual cough tho.

and since I was laid-up recuperating

there was no energy in my tank to even think about stitching {or anything else}

other than staying warm, comfy and rested.

the body was spent, but the brain never sleeps 

so I kept my sketchbook within arms' reach to jot down ideas

 that came to my feverish mind

~ {oh boy just wait to see what I've come up with LOL} ~

as you are all familiar with my love of Autumn and Halloween,
those subjects have been forefront in my mind-wanderings...
while recuperating, I even dreamed that it was Fall, 

and was so dissappointed when I woke and realized it was still indeed, June.

{yep.}

 

 So now I will dive head first into that sketchbook and begin creating;

there are quite a few things that I want to do in punch needle...

so watch for snippets of those on my IG & FB pages.

 

We have a boy-kitty friend that we see on our walks occasionally...

he is somewhat-friendly, although he's not a fan of Grizzly.

but oh how handsome is this little gent?

Remember I shared with you this small dough board that Peter made me?
well we will be offering them very soon,
and as a matter of fact one of the above-mentioned punch needle designs
will be mounted on it & I can't wait to share it with ya'll!

I will also be using a few of my antique whisk-brooms in
my finishing, so if you have any that's good if you want to do one of my new designs...

if you don't have any antique whisk brooms, you can purchase them at dollar stores and distress them to make them look old...
and I will be sharing here on this blog just how I do that :)

 Well folks I am finishing my tea, and getting my punch supplies together...
I'm wishing you all a happy, peaceful and creative day!!!

 

Blessings from the Farm
