The people at Lulu chose my calendar to be included in a selection of calendars that they submitted to Amazon!
I feel so official now. They are fixing up an "author page" for me over there. Woo hoo. Here's the link to the calendar.
Oh, and that pencil photo is the April photo in the calendar.
Last year I made a calendar that I gave to friends and family. I wanted to publish one that I could share with all of you but I wasn't 100 percent happy with last year's calendar so I didn't offer it to you. This year I tried again and am thrilled with the result. The print quality and paper are much better than last year. It was hard to narrow down to just one photo from each month. All of the photos were taken here on our property. Some months required a family vote. But here it is:
2010 - A Year on the Farm with The Little Red Hen

We are having a beautiful day here today! The sky is as blue as the photo above. I am trying to soak in the sun while still fitting in a little project time.
I found a few of these small knit bags that needed some straps so I'm working a little on those.
I hope you have a fabulous weekend!
In recognition of my 500th blog post I'm hosting a GIVE AWAY!!!
I have made some more of these stitched pumpkin greeting cards for my shop and will give a four card set away here.
To enter just leave a comment here telling me your favorite family fall activity. It's that easy. I'll draw a winner when I return from my quilt retreat! The winner to be announced Monday, September 21.
I had someone special order a bunch of Winnie the Pooh bookmarks for a baby shower. I thought that was a great idea. I like how they turned out.
Finished. I am sure many of you know how good it feels to finish a project, especially one that has been unfinished as long as this one.
I am busy adding to my inventory for a craft show on Saturday. If you are local it will be held at the Chelsea Fair Grounds. I have just finished a few jewelry bags lined with silver cloth and also have a large stack of greeting cards in the works.
I would like to finish these projects today and work on some holiday gifts for the family.
Be sure to stop by tomorrow and enter my give away contest!
I just fixed this set of bird cards as a special order for a bird lover.
I love the way these look with their word labels. The artists are Richard Scarry and Marc Brown.
I have been having fun with my circle cutters. Here are a few of my latest creations.
Rabbits; faces by Eloise Wilkins:
Go Dog, Go by P. D. Eastman
Dr. Seuss
I have also used the larger circle cutter to make gift tags from the book covers.
I have been inspired by circles. This quilt, made by Wendy has inspired a whole new line of cards for me. And I noticed today, her latest blog post has a familiar pattern on it. Do you recognize it?
After seeing this little quilt on flickr I had to run out and get a new tool. I got a circle punch for paper and made these.
and then this,
and these.
B was amused. He said we could celebrate when the card sales pay for the new sharp tool!
You can find these in my shop.
Stumble It!
