DECEMBER 2021 BLOG/NEWSLETTER

    Hello friends and Sewists, Happy Holidays and Happy Winter Solstice!! The days start getting longer now and we can all use a bit more light in our lives. It’s been a long and miserable year in many ways. We are deeply sorry for so many losses this year and hope all those closely effected are doing well. I have been very busy with way too many projects in the works. Somedays it’s overwhelming.

AUGUST 2021 DOG DAYS OF SUMMER BLOG/NEWSLETTER

 And just like that it’s the middle of August!! WOW ! Everything seems to be out of whack. The weather is crazy all over the country. Time seems to be flying faster than I ever remember. And confusion seems to be running rampant in the country. I thought that going to 1 day a week would help get more things done, and it has to a point, but we just keep running into situations that have to be resolved.

July 2021 Blog/Newsletter

Happy July to all. I hope y’all had a wonderful and safe 4th celebrations. We had a fairly quiet one. We sat out in the screened in porch and watch the neighbors fireworks. LOL!  By 10 pm we were peacefully in bed asleep. The wonderful thing about where we live is the peace and quiet at night. (well, except for the crickets and the frogs LOL)  Just a reminder, We are open ONLY on Wednesdays from 10 am to 4 pm. I apologize for the change again. But I think it will be best for all of us for many...
