Floresville Peanut Festival

A few pictures from the Peanut Festival that was this past weekend. It turned out to be a success despite the little bit of rain and wind, as you can see behind me....the scarfs blew all to the right side of the scarf ladder. Yea, I finally came up with a name for that thing, I made it along time ago and it actually comes in handy!!! Well, I have another craft show at my sister's house. It's going to be Oct. 22 from 3-6 pm., if you need directions please feel free to email me!

"Sometimes"

wool brooch with fabric covered button for center

Here is a poem my sister wrote (in an afternoon!!), that I'm pleased to share with y'all. Hope y'all enjoy it!

Sometimes
Morning in the east
While night in the west,
Soil to be worked,
But sometimes to rest.
Rain in the ocean,
Yet dry in the fields.
Land of the valleys,
But also the hills.
Seeds to grow
A tree to die.
A bird to lay
A bird to fly.
Peace in the village
War in the woods.
At times we can't
At times we should,
And though we doubt
At night we pray.
Today we move
On the morrow we wait.
Out of fear we keep silent,
Overburdened we tell Him
And for sometime on earth,
But forever in Heaven.

                     May you all have a wonderful afternoon!!!

Barin & his mother (my sister)

Barin, a couple of days old

this was at my moms b-day party last month

he's so precious

It has been such along time since I have been on my blog. Alot has happened since then, including a new addition to the family. Barin James Jasik, born May 19, 2011 (a day before my birthday:)), is my beautiful and wonderful nephew. I would like to share a few pictures of him. I will also, hopefully next week, share a poem that my talented sister has written just the other day. And also a few things that I am preparing for the upcoming Barn Sale  November 5, which you can read all about right here. May you all have a safe weekend, and thank the Lord for the rain (hopefully, pray hard!) that we're supposed to be blessed with this weekend.

new designs

brooch with several buttons for center



brooch with vintage lace and tulle



this brooch is a new design, the center is just made up of linen strips

brooch with doily and button for center

i found this straw bag at my church in a pile of garage sale items, i decided to liven it up a bit so i made a brooch to match ( i do have another brooch just like the one above, but unfortunately this one is not for sale!)

I just wanted to share a few pictures of the brooches that I've been whipping up. Unfortunately, I don't have enough time to write a post, I'm going out of town for the weekend, and I was excited about these brooches and couldn't wait to show y'all!!!

Oh! and please let me know what you think about the new blog changes in the comment box below.

                      Have a wonderful and fun weekend!!!
