New Design ~ Christmas Reindeer Box


This is my latest design, a Christmas Reindeer Box.
I am so happy with the way it turned out, even better than I expected!
The insides of the box and lid are stained, and the bottom inside of the box is lined with hand dyed red wool. Very Christmas-y!!

My latest designs,Punch Needle Pillow and Sewing Box


These are a couple of my latest designs. The little black cat with the fat, orange pumpkin design was made into a pillow. I stitched a piece of wool to the back and stuffed it with fiberfill.
It has already sold on eBay.



This design is one that my husband encouraged me to make!
I punched one similar to this that I made into a pincushion and decided to keep for myself.
This one is on eBay right now. It ends tonight!



The inside of the box and lid are lined
with red hand dyed wool.




I made a pincushion out of the same wool as the lining. It is filled with crushed walnut shells.



With the pincushion inside the box...I really like this one!
I guess I can always make another.
I'll be posting again soon!

It's been a long time...

I haven't posted in such a long time,
I thought it was about time I got back into this!
These are items that I have listed on eBay.
They are both punch needle pieces that are attached to the top of papier mache boxes that I have painted and antiqued some.
I love the really primitive look that the white one has.





This is all for now, I'll have another to add probably tomorrow!
Thanks for stopping by to take a look!

My First Post!


Welcome and thanks for stopping by to read my very first post!

I'll be using this blog as a kind of journal of things I create. This started with the love and strong encouragement of my family. A big "thank you!" to my family: Mike, Jennie (my partner in crafts who has been after me to do this forever), Jessica, and Amanda. Thank you all for pushing me as I seem to always need some pushing. I'd like to send a special thank you to you Jessica, for helping me set up this blog! You are just so clever and an expert at these kinds of things!

Tonight I'll be listing this pinkeep on eBay. It is my own design of a sunflower that has a little bit of Fraktur style to it. It's very primitive, stuffed with wool snippets left over from rugs I've hooked. Here is the link to things I'll be listing: http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/little*willow*primitives_W0QQ_dmdZ1QQ_ipgZ50QQ_sopZ12?_rdc=1
