AS SEEN IN PRIMS MAGAZINE...

2011-09-14T13:23:00.006-05:00

Finally, after many requests I have finished another Jolly St. Nick. The first one I made was published in PRIMS magazine and since then I have been on the search for another Hauptmann's Red Tin. These tins are hard to find and are very old, between 1910 -1930 I believe and have perfect graphics for the very Jolly St. Nick. I think that this piece turned out much better than the Original... He is now available for purchase. You may email me directly to purchase or go through my ETSY shop. He is a very grand 12" tall and is priced at $96.00 plus $8.95 Shipping. He is much "better" in person and has great character....

STRAY CATS NO MORE...

2010-09-27T14:08:00.004-05:00

Yes...I am trying to get some Halloween Pieces Finished....

Well...these 2 have been taking up a lot of my time...but it's paying off!!! These 2 girls were a part of a large group of strays that are living at a neighbors house.(He has 12 more) I am so "proud" of these cats...the mother cat...who we named "LEMON" because of her beautiful yellow eyes has been on her own outside since she was born more than 2 years ago and never had human contact. In just one short week she has come around and can easily be handled and picked up without a "fuss'. She has a sweet personality and has not shown any type of aggression and has the most luxe black fur I have ever seen!! Sadie...the kitten is the only one of her kittens that we were able to catch. What can I say...she has been on her own for 6 months and is now playing on the cat post with her "fuzzy mice" toys. She is also very easily handled and loves to be scratched on her head. She has sweet white markings on all 4 feet and under her neck and is very healthy. I was so worried that they were "too wild" but I was so wrong!!! It fills "my soul" to see these 2 play and cuddle just like they always had a home and someone that loved them!!! So....if you know anyone who is willing to give these 2 girls the SECOND CHANCE THAT THEY DESERVE...I can guarantee that they will be grateful and love you in return!!! Please email me if you want anymore info on these sweethearts....both have been spayed and have their shots...

ETSY LISTINGS HAVE STARTED....

2010-09-19T19:11:00.005-05:00

My ETSY LISTINGS have slowly started. I will hopefully be posting throughout the week. My stray cats are very time consuming...next week I will start to try and handle them. I am hoping that they are not too wild all ready....they have never had human contact and they are about 6 months to 1 year. So I don't really know if it is possible. The last 5 cats that I adopted out where only 3 weeks old and were easy to handle...it only took about 4 or 5 days!!!! So if anyone has any insight about "domesticating" Feral Cats I would love some advice....

ANOTHER CAT RESCUE MISSION...

2010-09-16T16:32:00.002-05:00

Just a quick note to let you all know that my ETSY & EBAY Listings are going to be "slightly" delayed. Once again we have rescued two more Kittens in my neighborhood...last year we rescued SIX!!! A person where I live started having a Stray live in his garage that he has refused to spay/neuter and has allowed the population to multiple to 14 cats this year, not including the 6 I saved last year. That's 20 cats in one season. Last year we domesticated 5 kittens over a month's time and found them all great homes and we spayed the Mother Cat and re-released her as a Feral Cat. Anyway, 2 kittens found their way into my garage so we have gotten them spayed and they are coming back here to recover tomorrow....so I will be very busy with these 2 "wild"cats!! I am at my wits end with this irresponsible person who lives in my neighborhood who thinks it is "cute" to watch these poor animals multiple...this isn't California weather here either, in the winter it can get very, very cold(-30) for many months...

ETSY & EBAY LISTINGS COMING...

2010-09-16T09:30:00.000-05:00

Yes I know...as usual I am running behind!!! Just once I would like to put my feet up and be "ahead of the game"....but as per usual I am getting everything done at the last minute!!!
Anyway, I will be starting my ETSY postings on Thursday....a few pieces at a time throughout the weekend....I HOPE....I HOPE....
And finally, I will be starting EBAY Listings. Hopefully 6 listings from now until Halloween....one per week and an extra special one for the Final Listing...

A spooky Jack O Lantern peers out over top the tombstone.

My Art Quilts in Sew Somerset Magazine

2010-01-14T16:03:00.012-06:00

Here is a look at my article "In The Doghouse" in the Winter 2010 edition of Sew Somerset. The projects are a wool Art Quilt entitled "King of Dogs" that give examples of piecing, applique and thread embellishments. The other two smaller pieces incorporate the same ideas on a smaller scale and have pictures of my "Baby Doberman Boy" Sygi and his very good friend "Libby" a Dalmation girl.

On a sad note, Libby's sister, Codie left this world for Doggie Heaven just a few days ago. We miss her very much but know that she is frolicking somewhere with the warmth of the sun on her back and visions of her "family" on her mind as she smiles a big "Doggie" smile!!!

My Latest Halloween Creations

2009-05-16T16:27:00.000-05:00

Under a large oak tree being silhouetted by the light, I envision big black spiders dropping from their webs to an evening soiree below. As they gather in the leaves, I see shiny spider web tents filled with lanterns and tiny spider cupcakes. There is laughing and 8 legged dancing as the guests drop from above wearing parachute webs and polka dot party hats....

This formed into the creation of my newest character, Fortunata P. Webb

I also have created new Puppet Boxes that will be available on my Etsy very soon. Jax O. Lottapants will be appearing in the Olde Time Puppet Review. My new skeleton character will be making his debut as the Great Skelltini's Magic & Mayhem show. I will also have many more of my characters appearing in the Puppet Boxes this Halloween Season.

The Birds & The Bees: Vintage Art Quilts: Coming this June in the new magazine Art Quilting Studio

2009-04-05T15:01:00.003-05:00

I have recently been quilting again, something that I rarely have time for. However I made time for a submission of a trio of art quilts that will be in the premiere issue of Art Quilting Studio which is a Stampington/Somerset publication. The issue will be out in June and my article explains the techniques for the three pieces being published. The quilts are in my favorite vintage style and the theme is "The Birds & The Bees". Make sure to see the magazine to get all the pictures and information on how to make them. Hopefully I will get some time to get some art quilts on Etsy in the very near future.

The Fiddle Crew Enjoying The Warm Spring Days

2009-04-03T20:18:00.000-05:00

The Cat & Fiddle Crew has been anxious to get outside and enjoy the sunshine in the few warm days that we have actually had this spring. Tibby the grey cat discovered the Catmint plant popping up under the fall leaves and enjoyed rolling in it and getting covered in dirt and leaves.

Sygi the Doberman Dog has been getting into trouble swimming in the river, chasing squirrels and discovering skunks. His next door friend Bailey the Beagle has been over visiting again now that all the snow is gone.

Pompei the Siamese has just been enjoying the sunshine in the porch...
