Christmas Open House, New patterns, etc.

Today began the first day of my Christmas Open House at our lil country shop.  Overnight we had a light dusting of snow so it really set the mood!  While it was sunny outside, it sure was cold, COLD.  But that didn't stop the shoppers from coming out.

We are also having open house next weekend.   This will give me a whole week to make new stock for the shop.  Then I plan to close up for the winter until April. 
It seems every year, the holidays creep up quickly and I never seem to just relax and enjoy them with my family.  This year I plan to do just that!
I will still do my ebay and patterns and might even put out something new when an idea pops into my head.

The patterns are ready.  We have "Standup Kinda Guys" and "Deck the Halls"  They are each $10.50
"Standup Kinda Guys" is the standing santa pattern.  Deck the Halls is the pattern for the snowmen.  I've taken several pics to show you what you can do with this one.  I made standing snowmen as well as a snowman head ornie and even put one in a wreath.  Sold that wreath real quick today!


As always, email to order.  Or if you prefer, the patterns will be on ebay this weekend.  Have a good weekend, stay WARM!
