jenny,
i do have more or could just make some up, i work better during the week cause we have 2 of the grandkids here on the weekend cause their parents work on the weekend.
i dont know how you do all you do with kiddos around. little olivia(3) wants to help me with everything .
today we spent an hour in the kitchen feeding a tricket(green grasshopper)some water out of our hand. livia was delighted.
anyway.i will probably e-mail you a shot of the ones i have and let you pick 3.have i ever listed the price on those? this has all happened fast and i cant keep track. i havent listed them for the price i used to get in the shop because i dont have a booth rental here to cover.
thanks, fran |

Sounds great..no hurry at all..whatever works best for you!
I only get things done because I don't sleep alot. I should too!!
When the kids go back to school (Tuesday) I will hopefully get more done during the day and less at 1am!! I didn't see a price listed..but I could have missed it.

thanks sunshine, and nancy jo and karin.
this has been a funny day here at the farm.
i had a great time crafting this morning and then ran out of acorn tops, so i had to go to the acorn store....no had to go to edhube a little tiny town about 12 miles from the farm and gather some more burr oak acorns.
i was out of the house less than 1 hour and i swear all the heat in the state of texas entered my body, and i'm pretty sure it is trapped in there.
i also think it has mostly settled in my brain cause it is a heat that seems to keep you from thinking.
how did the pioneer women do this without ac?
please, utah girls, sunshine and jenny, tell me that it is cooler in idaho, and that you will send some cool air our way soon.
pray for autumn!
love, fran |

my gosh, i will have to start a tab for your. (but i'm not complaing! i just want to be fair.
lets see, i use in my crafts, anything that is beautiful no matter how small. like you i really appreciate any needlwork, crochet, tatting etc. that was made with love and is beautiful with age. thats what i usually look for at sales . i dont really cut a piece that is still intact, like an edging, i just remake the pillowcase for example if it is torn or worn out and i reuse the edging. small scraps of beautiful fabric go into my pincushions.
i dont know sunshine, i just trust that we will both be happy, i trust your judgemnt on this. i will mail your package today! yikes, sorry it took this long, the last hat was a real problem, cause my sewing machine decided to play its little tricks on me. i would love to post your pics but i'm gonna wait till everyone gets their package so they will be the first to see their purchase. please dont worry about the trade i hope we will continue to barter back and forth and as long as we continue to talk with each other about what works and what doesnt i know it will all work out. sometimes i think it is easier to just charge money, and my dh always thinks that is a good idea. but sometimes it is more fun to get a craft or art piece that you have admired from someone elses work, so it all works out. and it isnt always a equal trade money wise but as long as both peoples hearts are happy, who cares?....and isnt it nice in this world of hyperwalmarts that we still have a chance to barter among ourselves?
have a great day, sunshine.
love,
fran |
