Raffle Prize ~

In addition to making the cigar boxes for door prizes, I will also donate a couple raffle prizes.  It is the biggest money maker at the hook in.  I love vintage baskets!  This one is a pie basket that still has the little pie shelf inside.

I hooked a sweet little Maria Barton sheep and attached it to the top in the same way I attached hooked pieces to the cigar boxes.


Now maybe I can get back to pulling a few loops on Proud Lion.  He has been totally neglected for a few weeks.

Happy summer solstice.  Argh!  The days will now start getting shorter 😢

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

What a wonderful raffle prize gift you made for your guild, they are quite lucky to have you as a member. Love that you made curved corners and have been thinking of doing a blog post about rounded corners vs. squared corners. Looking forward to your handsome beast in an upcoming post.

I think I've asked before...but can I join your guild just for a chance to win one of your donations??? This is just precious!! (And you know I have a "thing" for old baskets like this. Happy Solstice. I don't start to mourn the loss of day until tomorrow. (And, by then, it is going to be stifling hot and humid so I probably won't care.)

I would put in some serious money to try and win that. I love that so much. What got me is that is still has the pie shelf. How cool is that! We have an absolute beautiful day here. The air is so good I wish I could drink it. Nothing is better living here when we get ocean breezes. I bet you get it all of the time living so close to the lake. I hope you have a wonderful Saturday.

Holy moly what an awesome idea. I love the sheep pie basket. I bet it did make a lot of money. You’re so talented friend. Happy Sunday!

I have a few of those baskets, no stain on them. Not real keen on doing that but it needs done. Several of the picnic ones, and my favorite, the lunch box! Great idea to add some snazz to them but since mine are stacked, only need to decorate one. Yep. Shiver to sweat. About time!!
