Creepy Witch

Hey...I thought you might like a creepy with image.

But her shoes are pretty cool!

This is how I always imagine a witch to be like....riding her broom....maybe a few evil thoughts in her brain.

She has fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch coming down.

Ok... I guess I should stop bashing witches now.

 

Gonna have some homemade chili for lunch....leftovers from yesterdays dinner.

Tonight...Big Bang theory!

Lovely ladies...

Happy Wednesday to you!

I wanted to share with you this beautiful wallhanging made by Sarah Whiting.

This is for her little girl's room.

She made it from my pattern:

She lingers in her garden Quilt pattern, #302

I love her color choices....it is just lovely!

This is my pattern cover....very yellow....lol.

I want to thank her for sharing it with me and all of you.

If you have any finished items made from my patterns...I would LOVE to see them and blog about them!!

 

My shopping haul...crafting goodies

I went to my sisters town this past weekend...had a blast.

We had good meals, talked and laughed, hot tubbed, and shopped til we dropped.

I want to show you what I got....that is crafting related.

I got all kinds of fun goodies.

I got beads, gems, and vintage buttons!  Pretty darned cheap too.

I love this big bag of white buttons....2 bucks!

There were all kinds of bundles of fabric.....did I need them....not telling.

LOVE the Halloween fabric...the pumpkin fabric I have had before....one of my favorites.

Dennison Halloween booklet....for a dollar!!!!

I grabbed that faster than fast.  I also got some old witch diecuts....I will have to take a pic of that later.

a cool bead necktie for my daughter...needs a little repair.

Bundles for a buck

Love the blue gem cameo.

Wild animal print for my daughter.....rick rack for me.....again did I need more stuff?

Vintage lace...yes I needed it!!!

I also got some lovely Kelly Rae Robert stuff....a canvas print and cool mirror.

Got records (love vinyl) and clothes too.

My daughter has a new wardrobe I think....thank god some of it came from thrifting.

I need a nap to catch up on this wild weekend.

 

My daughter at Octopus garden....hats with wigs!

That store is a whole lot of fun.

Sunday morning...at McDonald's for breakfast....imitating Miley Cyrus on Saturday night live.

That's my crazy sister...Angie.

 

Spider web freebie design

Cute spider isn't it...so not like real spiders.

I had a spider crawl into my ear once in a hot tub...I went under water in a flash...yikes....bad flashback happening!

Why can't spider be cute?!!!

I bomb my house on a regular basis...just to get spiders (not much else here in Washington state...thank goodness).

I think this would be cute stitched and put into a small embroidery hoop.

*Please note that all freebies are for you to use to make finished goods (no mass producing) and gifts...they are still legally my designs.

Have a great weekend...I will be with my sisters & daughter....shopping it up!

Because life is a living, breathing work of art, you are a painting as you go. Be a masterpiece. Drink in life. Laugh too loud. Compliment others constantly.

Halloween...frightful, yet delightful

It is getting chilly over night now...I guess it really is October!

My new sign is now available...."Halloween..frightful, yet delightful". 

It is on my etsy.

 

I love this saying!  It is perfect.

---------------------------------------------------

I love watching scary movies in October....

 

Last night on TCM (it is on demand)....one of my favorite creepy movies was on...The collector

This one is so scary because it could be done and has been really.

This man kidnaps this girl...thinking he can make her fall in love with him.

The actors are superb!  You forget they are acting....I really feel for the girl.

She is a smart...tough girl....who does everything she can to get free.

If you have not seen it...you should...but I warn you...it is creepy for 1965.

 

 

I love having fun with Photos

I have a huge collection of photos....mainly old ones....but some that are from my camera.

 

I love this pic. These are my kittens from years ago.  The middle cat is Lucky and the bottom cat is Trix....Goldie has other parents. There is actually another kitten under the pile....tiddles. All four were on top of a small kitty condo!

Lucky is now huge...over 20 pounds...its not just fat...he has a big head, paws...etc.

Trix is our hunter....no mice in this area of town.

This is a favorite photo in my collection...what a face!

She looks like she could have kicked some boy booty.

I like the saying I added...I like inspiration.

 

I also like fun ones.  She is sweet.  I love her glasses by the way.

Ok...gotta get busy now....I am having too much fun around here!

 

Sidenote: Survivor tonight....still addicted to it!
