Sneak Peak ~


Just a little peak at a few of the items I will have for your viewing pleasure at the Harvest of the Mill show in Holly, MI, on Saturday.  If you attend, please stop by and say hi.  

These sewing pockets are to die for wonderful. These beauties are from Melinda of Merry Wind Farm.  Some are made with reproduction cross stitch samplers . . .


. . . while some are made with vintage quilt blocks.


I've also got a couple of her reproduction cross stitch samplers.  They are big, they are beautiful and they are stitched on 32 or 35 count linen. You have to see them in person to appreciate their beauty.


Here are just a few of the things hand made by Sherry (from Sherry's Heart).  She has some really cool hooked pieces . . .


. . . and wonderful punch needle.  This JOL is hooked with Valdani pearl cotton and attached to a fabric covered box that is very muted in person.

Last but certainly not least are these fun bracelets from vintage buttons made by dear friend Dolly .  There are bracelets for dog and cat lovers and plain ones, too.  The best part ~ 100% of the sales go to benefit Ohio Pug Rescue!!!


Thanks so much for stopping by.  I probably won't post again before the show.  Wish me luck.  The weather sounds like it will be perfect.  Hopefully when it is all over, I'll have time to visit everyone's blogs.  
Pug hugs :)

    Thanks for the sneak peek. I love those sewing pockets. They could be used for hooking also.

    I know that you'll have so much fun on Saturday. I wish that I live closer, I'd make the time to go see you at there.

    Travel safely. I'm wishing you great sales.

    Hugs,

    Lauren,
    LOVE those sewing pockets! They will fly from your booth quickly I'm sure! Have great fun and sell lots! Don't forget your camera... but I know it's hard to take photos with all you have to do setting up etc.
    Hugs and Wishes for a great show!!

    Dang-nabbit! It's time like these when I wish my parents had stayed in Ohio instead of escaping the snow by moving to Florida. Although the snow would not do me any good, having all these talented fiber artists around would be heaven!
    Have a great show!

    What beautiful things you have accumulated for the prim show. I do wish you lots of luck and I hope it is a fun experience. Loved going back over your Sauder photos. Always something I look forward to every year. One day I hope to make it there myself. I agree with you about where did the summer go - gees - wake up one day and it's September. Tomorrow will be christmas I guess LOL - take care Mel
