Let me introduce you to my Charlee. She is a Welsh Pembroke Corgi, one of the best dog breeds there is. I got her when she was 13 months old and she has been my constant companion for 12 years now. We have traveled to many states together. She really isn't that fond of traveling, but does fine as long as she is wearing her doggie seat belt. I had seen pictures of the Corgi breed with Queen Elizabeth for many years and thought how cute they were. You really didn't hear much about this breed here in the US until not too many years ago. I really became infatuated with them when I became a follower of Tasha Tudor. If you don't know who she was, she was a children's book illustrator and she was also known for her way of living and gardening. There is a lot of information about her on Google. Her family also has a lovely website you can visit, just go to tashatudorandamily.com
Here is a picture of Tasha and her corgyn
And here are a couple of pictures of her artwork with corgi's:
There are three color's of the Pembroke Corgi, sable (Charlee is a sable), red and tri color, which is black, red and white. These little guy's are very smart and fun to have around. If you look at them straight on they look like they are smiling, I love that!!
Charlee, my husband and myself are getting ready to make a trip back to Arkansas to see my brother, who is in the hospital and just found out that he has cancer. I am asking for prayers for him. Thank you!!
Until next time.....
Blessings to All
Hi, well it has been a very long time since I have written anything here! My how the time fly's!!
To begin with, we did get our place in the country and are loving it!! There was a lot to do when we bought this place, and we have gotten some major things done, but still have more to do. We had a bad storm with high winds and hail a few weeks ago, so we had our roof inspected and sure enough we have damage. So, we are getting a new roof! We had talked about wanting a metal roof and now we are going to get one. We have chosen the dark green color, should look really nice.
Next, I had a hip replacement in June of this year. It had gotten to the point that I wasn't able to get much done, so decided to go ahead with the surgery. I am so thankful that I did! Doing really good now.
Here it is Fall already! This is my favorite time of the year. I love the nice cool and crisp mornings and evenings. Halloween is just around the corner, time to start decorating.
I need to go down to the barn and bring up all of my decorations. I did get a door hanging up that I made several years ago. It is one of the patterns I designed when I had my pattern co.
.
This brings me to what I am doing now, along with making quilts for clients. I have had an Etsy shop for a few years, I started it out with offering Tea Cozy's. I haven't offered anything new for quite sometime, so I have decided to open it back up and add some more items for sale. I just listed a really cute Halloween Wall Hanging, it is a 'Halloween Countdown Calendar' that has 13 pockets for candy. Of course it would only count 13 days before Trick or Treat day.
I invite you to go on over to my little shop and check it out. fabraholic4.etsy.com My mom left me a lot of fabric, mostly calico's from the 70' and 80's, in all different colors. I will be offering some of these fabrics in my shop soon. They are all in like new condition, she had them packed away very nicely.
I am looking forward to getting back to blogging again and hopefully making some new friends.
Have a blessed day!
