A TURKEY HERE A TURKEY THERE!!!!

Neutral Turkey has been SOLD thanks to Lori from Notforgotten Farm

              Scrappy Turkey has been sold Thank You Penny

Well here I sit, Halloween Nite,NO Tricks, No Treats. BUT I got to go to the grocery store yesterday and there IS a chocolate pie all defrosted in the fridge,so I guess there WILL be a treat for me!!! Would anyone like to join me,I'd love the company????
BTW I HIGHLY recommend Marie Callender's pies!!! Whenever I get to go to the grocery store that's my big treat. Yesterday I got 2!!!! They were on sale!!! So far my favorite is the banana cream pie,but then I haven't tried this chocolate one yet!!!
So here's what I've been workin' on,TURKEY RUGS. It's a design from an older Kindred Spirits pattern book. They actually made it as a purse.
One I hooked in a darker more scrappy look and the other in neutral colors of browns and creams.
I think I like the scrappy one best until I look at the neatral one,I don't know.
Which one do you like best????
They measure approx. 8" X 10". They're $72.00 each + shipping in a 1st class envelope. Hurry and grab your favorite,just contact me!!!
Thanks For Stopping By!!!!

Ye Ladye Pumpkin

Back when I was a very little girl and my Mom was still alive,I remember the Soaps on TV that she watched. Way back then each Soapie was only on for 15 minutes. Then after I became a wife and mom,I watched the soaps. Sometimes I just listened if I was busy. But it came to be a special time for me. Kids napping,eating my lunch in peace and losing myself in the stories. They became my family!! My favorite has always been "As The World Turns". Everybody who knew me well,knew that ya don't call when it was on because that was Sherry's break time. Lunch and "As The World Turns". I STILL miss it.
Now I call my life, "As Sherry's World Turns". Everyday life is a real challenge. When friends call they get the next episode of "As Sherry's World Turns". Maybe whether they want to or not LOL!!!! Often I've thought about posting about it here,but I'm really not a negative person and I feel people want to go to blogs and see pictures and read funny or good things or learn things. Well maybe I can post a learning thing. Don't eat the unrecognizable frozen food that they give out at the Community Center!!! You can get VERY sick!!! That's what I learned LOL!!!!
I'm selling this rug pattern by Emma Lou Lais,drawn by Barb Carroll. It's JACK JACK & JACK. Thought it was time to let it go,cause I have so many patterns and even though I work constantly, it's all things to sell. This is a BIG rug, 24" X 36" and I'd never get my money back to hook it and sell it. So maybe someone out there can hook it and keep it. It's $38 + shipping. It costs a little more now on the website.
Ye Ladye Pumpkin is a needle punch pattern by my buddy Lori Brechlin of Notforgotten Farm. I adapted her to a hooked rug. She's 16" X 19" $160.00 + shipping.
Please just contact me if you're interested or have any ??'s
Thank You for stopping by and I REALLY appreciate my followers and comments!!!

Call It Fall, Call it Autumn, Call it My Favorite Time

I haven't decorated for anything in the years that we lived at that other house.
I may be sad and lonely and my life has become a daily soap opera, but I do love this house and wanted to go back to decorating like I used to. I know John wanted that too. Believe it or not I managed to get those 2 scarecrows put out there with no injuries (to them LOL)!!! Everybody else around here prolly thinks I'm nuts,but the people that come for the open houses here seem to enjoy it. Last week-end I saw a little girl out there in front pointing to my house, and saying, Mommy I want to go in that house!!! I heard her mom say, you can't someone lives there LOL!!! At least she liked it and so do I!!!!
I ALWAYS have such a hard time stopping the Fall and Halloween ideas of what I still want to make. I'm hookin' a rug right now of one of Lori Brechlin's cool needle punch designs.
I also have pumpkins for sale and a table mat. I just put them on my picture-trail if you'd like to go see. And some of my house pictures too!!!

Just Stuff

The witch X stitch is a Jenny Hoffman,Country Rustic Primitives pattern. I'm stitching it on osnaburg,one thread over two.
The penny rug is from the magazine Primitive Quilts and Projects. It's a Maggie Bonanomi pattern.
The hooked JOLS are my design. They've been sittin' around for a long time waiting to be finished. Maybe this time is their turn!!!


I'm thinkin' about having some kinda on line garage sale. I don't know if it should be here on my blog or pay the money on my picture trail so I can have more pictures up and have it there.
What do you all think???
No the garage here is STILL not unpacked and the van is still sitting in the driveway. That would really be upsetting to John. I really haven't done anything out there since I broke my foot. The kids don't seem to want to help me unpack because I guess they think I'm not going to be able to afford to stay here. They're nuts though cuz on the income I'm getting right now the only place that Sissy and I could really afford to live is in the van!!!! But I love this house,I'm very comfortable here and I'm going to keep fighting to stay here!!!!
Thought I'd show you just a few of the things I'm working on. Someday maybe I'll get the order of this blogging right!!!!

This pumpkin rug was ordered by a customer. Thank You Josie!!!

Cool Weather YEAH!!!!

This sweet handstitched little aged sampler pillow with vintage buttons looks GREAT on a little chair or on a shelf. I've sewn a homespun plaid on the back and it's approx. 7" Wide X 9" Long. $26 + Shipping
Very often I just put my backing fabric on the frame,do a freehand drawing and start hookin'. That's what I did with this Lumina pumpkin rug. At 9" X 12" it's a great size for a table,a rickety ol' stool or to hang on the wall.
$72 + Shipping
Thanks for visiting my blog,hope you'll come back soon!!! And become a follower??

$62 + Shipping.

Did ya notice the cool scrolling thingy for my Etsy Shoppe??!!?? Well the other day when Lori Brechlin and I were yakkin' on the phone,I said,how did you do that?? She proceeded to tell me and I was takin' notes. Then she said,"what's your ID??" So I told her and I swear within 90 seconds THERE IT WAS on MY blog!!! Thank You My Dear Friend!!! I've never had any luck selling on Etsy so maybe this will help and I'll try putting more stuff on Etsy. Well I have hope anyway!!!

Last week I showed you the contraption I have to wear on my broken foot,well I've STILL got it. My appointment was Aug. 29th and I knew that I wasn't gonna lose the boot. Dr. said my MS is compramising the healing and affecting the nerves and tissue and that's why it hurts more now than when I broke it. My next appointment isn't until the beginning of Oct. So the big ol boot is still a part of me. Thanks for taking a look at my work!!!!
