The Pony Express

club little house package

Yeap, that pony sure has been galloping by the house lately.  Here are just a few of the goodies he has delivered.  The Club Little House package, Full of handmade mini’s for us big kids. Perfect timing as we are setting up house.  Amy was kind enough to add a little lunch and a lemon pie for our tenants, they we most gracious for the kind vittles as moving into there new home sure has been a lot of work.

Doll house welcome mat

This is the little welcome mat that I made for Club Little House.  The slippers can easily be removed by clipping the one thread that is holding them on, in case you like keeping your slippers near the bedroom.

blue pottery buttons

These Lovely buttons from Mommycoddle came a week or so ago. They were originally suppose to be a gift for my mom, but after receiving them…Well, I don’t know.. they are to cute. I may have to place another order for my mom. Sorry Mom.blue striped, toile, novelty print fabrics

And these cute fabric swatches are a gift from Carrie.  I’m thinking maybe a pillow using the stripes or how about part of that quilt I’m always think of?

A little break

caves, rocks, bridge

Well, we just got back from a camping trip the other day. And boy, is it good to be home. Now I’m trying to get caught up on everything and getting ready for company that will be coming to visit this weekend. Not much crafting has been going on this week. I did try an attempt at this tissue box cover, only to totally lose interest or the *umph to finish it. Does anyone else do that?? So, I don’t know if it will ever get done. I guess I will set it aside and hope that my urge to create will return. Maybe its all this other stuff that NEEDS to be done, blocking my waves.

Have a great weekend everyone.
