Car trash bag quilted John Deere


I have had several requests in the past several months for John Deere car trash bags. I was in North Carolina this past weekend and was finally able to buy 3 different patterns. I never know how much to get, so I played it conservative and only bought enough for about 8 bags. I may end up selling them all or I may end up using John Deere fabric as lining.. haha!!!

Thoughts on Etsy Treasury

I have recently spent alot more time in the Etsy treasury. It is fun to look and leave comments. I myself have never been able to snag one. I have tried to no avail. So I have resigned to the fact that my computer may not be quick enough to handle getting one. I have noticed that for the most part the same people are able to get them. What are your thoughts on the treasury? I would really like to hear from you about this promotion tool. Also what is interesting are the buy and replace treasuries. I will admit that I have done these recently since I am in the process of buying gifts and presents for up coming Birthdays. So why not kill two birds with one stone right? I realize this is a sore subject with alot of fellow etsians, so I don't want to open any can of worms but once again what do you think of B & R's? I would be so interested in hearing all comments positive or negative. Thanks!!!

Patch pouches

I so enjoyed putting these designer fabs together to creat these pouches. The finished items are in my shop and I will also post them here in the next few days. I sure hope they sell cuz it would be a shame not to have fun again and make some more. I love trying to match them up but then I realized that it doesn't need to match teehee!!!

Garden Cheer!


I must admit that I have neglected my garden this year. I did get my tomatos in just a few weeks ago but little else has been done. In years past gardening has been my therapy. I know that it will be just a matter of days and I will have to start getting out there every morning. It has been so dry here lately- that I have watered but that is about it!! I just know I will be glad once I make my homemade salsa with my tomatos!!!
