May you all be truly blessed this holiday season. God has granted me a gift of creating and sewing and I have been truly blessed to be able to fulfill my calling. My dear husband supports me in my endeavor and you as customers give me an outlet to create and be challenged. One dear sweat lady I have sewn for many years, gives me a challenge each year. Last year I created a village with a church in the middle. She wanted a gold star in the sky to her right. This year she once again gave me a challenge. She ordered her family room at Christmas time. The applique was the family fireplace, the large Christmas tree on the left decorated with a large red bow on the top with long streamers and gold ornaments. Presents were under the tree with a teddy bear and a smaller tree on the right. The stocking hung from the mantle.
With the busy holiday season, I always have ideas roughly sketched on paper but am unable to create the finished item. I am trying to get ready for shows and keep inventory in stock at Farmer's Country Store. The week before Christmas when I am finally winding down, I sometimes add a new item or two. I created two new sweatshirts this past week. A new snowflake sweatshirt and an retro Ohio jacket.
Merry Christmas to all.
