Skeletons In Your Closet!

My mother and I just finished these and now I am ready to mail to the challenge queen. Mom is not macabre so I had to keep reminding her of the theme, but we had so much fun!!!! My favorite is the skeleton head covered with net. Awesome in person. 

Enjoy! A chipboard booklet with 6 pages, total of 12 pages to decorate. I will receive 6 pages from 6 different artists. How exciting!

Week of August 6th News

Today is hot! 104 Degrees hot! In the shade!!!!
Everything is wilted including the girls, we are all moving slow. The heat just takes your breath away.
I received my latest issue of Create and Decorate, October 2010 issue. My friend Denise White of The Cat's Pyjamas has a wonderful bat she has made. I have already traced the pattern to make some for my friends!!!!!
Also my webmaster Sally Van Nuys has her continuing article about beginning primitive rug hooking. Great piece and lots of information. Then you gotta see her rug hooking project using an antique sieve. Very creative. I think this is one of the best issues yet. Lots of Halloween and Fall ideas.
I have a project in it as well. Called it 'Cabin In The Sky' using all of my rug hooking strips leftover from other projects. 
It will be on the magazine stands really soon.
Here is a sneak peek.......

I hope you guys have a great weekend!!!!! Stay Safe

I  

Epiphany!!!

I had an epiphany a while ago and now I am finally able to actually use it. I have found four crockpots, the really old ones we put in garage sales, around the country side. Cleaned them up and they are all loaded with dye and wool. I found that I can turn to high, let simmer boil for a while and then add vinegar. Is that kewl or what??? Now I don't have to search for vintage white enameled stock pots or buy stainless steel pots just for dyeing......and it does not heat up my kitchen!
I'm loving this.......and wanted to share this neat idea with my wool friends!
Stay well

Miss October 31st!!!!

 My Ebay group PFATT is having a "Miss October 31st" challenge!!! Tabitha is my creation, it was such fun making her and a great break from dyeing wool.
Hot hot hot here in the country and hard to think fall & winter, but Halloween always gets me going!
Go to Ebay and type in "PFATT" in the search box, hit enter. Lots and lots of wonderful offerings from awesome artists!
Stay well

Ramblings

My niecelets and I went to the Kirby Hooking Circle Hook-In in Houston, Tx. We had so much fun and everyone was wonderful!!!!! The pic here is the vendor booth we built.

And for fun (and nothing to do with the hook-in) is a pic of one of my many antique sewing machines. This one is a hand crank Singer with beautiful decals, dating from approx. 1890's. It still works! The cover (just behind the machine) is a coffin wooden cover. A great piece of history in America!

Enjoy your day

Jo and Lacey Jane

Kinda Sad Today

Today I went to my aunt's funeral. I hate these things but you always see family and friends you haven't seen in so long it is almost a reunion. And of course, down here in the South, the decedent's church gives a sit down lunch for the family. The food was wonderful and visiting with family was a good thing.
So
back in the studio, dyeing wool and making angels.
You can visit my Etsy shop or Pfatt Marketplace for my latest musings and/or go to my website for my hand dyed wools and kits. 
Hope you are having a wonderful day! The sun is out and it got to about 85 degrees today!

Penny Feather Tree Auction for a dear Sweet Pfatt Friend

On February 14th - on Ebay - this wonderful feather tree will be a charity auction for the Alabama Chapter of LLS. The 38" bronze feather tree will feature ornaments handmade by 30+ members of PFATT, a forum on Ebay. One of our dear members is being treated for Leukemia and all of us thought it would be a great thing to assemble this tree for a charity auction on Ebay to hopefully help her and others suffering from this blood disorder.

I have included some pics to give you a preview!

Please go to Ebay on the 14th

Love Jo and Lacey Jane
