Hello, prim friends! I wanted to pop in and wish you all a happy weekend and share a few pictures of what I have been up to. It’s been really chilly here in Michigan and the last days of fall are quickly going by. I’ve been working on quite a few basket orders and I want to thank all of my wonderful customers. I’m also working on some Christmas primitives. After the first of December I won’t be taking any more orders for baskets so that I can enjoy this special time of year with my family and friends. I’ve only bought one gift so far so I have got to get busy on my shopping list. I have lots of baking to do as well.
Here is a family picture of Gwen, Miah, and our grandsons that was taken last weekend. I love the background of this picture and of course Kohen peeking over Mom’s shoulder.
Here is a picture of Grandpa and Kohen taken last week. Kohen is wearing is little “BOO” t-shirt.
When I was in Pennsylvania visiting Kath last month we went to the Whistle Stop antique mall. I found this antique sausage stuffer for Simon. He makes all of our bratwurst, Italian sausage, polish sausage and when he is lucky enough to kill a deer we always process it ourselves. He was lucky last night & shot a doe with his bow. I
did get pictures of him with his deer but didn’t think you would care to see them.
I’ve been making alot of beeswax Santas that I have been selling and I got a few of these primitive angel stockings done. This picture was taken last Christmas but I have about 6 of these made this year.
I made this primitive snowman from a Primitive Pear pattern. It is sprinkled here and there with mica flakes & the baby is attached on a stick. They are both wearing chenille scarves from an old bedspread.
This is a fun cross stitch pillow I just finished. It is a Lori Brechlin pattern from Notforgotten Farm. It is 8 inches square and heavily aged with coffee stain. I backed it with a drab green/brownish wool. I am thinking of putting it on my selling blog ~ just not sure.
Lastly is this small pinkeep with Christmas and just a few snowflake motifs. The rosemary is some that I grew & dried this year. Hopefully next year it will produce a little bit more. Love the smell of it and love cooking with it. I also dried alot of orange slices last year for tucking here and there in bowls, etc.
Thanks for stopping by. Not sure when I’m updating my selling blog. Like I said I am working on basket orders & next Wednesday I have a luncheon & shopping date with a few of my friends.
I am so grateful for my blogging friends. You are all truly on my gratitude list.
til next time,
Pam

What a lovely picture of your family. Cute little face on her "Mommy's" shoulder.
I love all your work.. you are very talented.. Your baskets are a work of art.. I once had a show with a basket maker and she, too had wonderful baskets.. I've always collected different shapes of baskets.

Hi Pam,
What a beautiful pic of the family. Where was it taken? The scenery is just beautiful!
I love all your new stitcheries! The stockings are awesome!
Hope it warms up for you. I think we're supposed to warm up to the 60's this weekend! Enjoy your weekend! Hugs, Loretta
Pam, you have been one busy gal! I really like the Christmas Cross stitch - very antique looking. I worked at the basket shop this morning (no school here today) trying to get the inventory closed up for the season. My stove wasn't pumping out the heat and I decided I'd had enough when I couldn't write anymore due to freezing fingers. Enjoy your weekend. ~Ann
Pam, I too, love seeing all your handiwork. You've been busy! Great family photo with the just perfect background.
I love the first family picture so much. The leaves are all over and the trees with their fall leaves across the bridge are wonderful!
I'm with you, I have so much to do. I haven't even bought one Christmas present AND on top of that I start a "seasonal" job tomorrow night. This might end up being a mistake for times sake! But the extra money for Christmas will be nice.
Love all your crafts Pam!
Have a great weekend,
Robin~♥
Beautiful family picture of Gwen's family Pam....very very nice.
Wow you are a busy gal for sure. I think I'm busy but you have so many DIFFERENT projects always going. The stockings look adorable.
My Christmas shopping doesn't start till the first week of December....too much going on before that.

Hi Pam, that couch is navy with a red and cream MINI print. It is so beautiful, just not my colors or I would have brought it home! It still has the tags on it. The original price was over $2,000 and it wouldn't fit in my customer's home when they delivered it! Wouldn't you just cry??? Have a great Sunday, Dawn
Hello Pam! I love the picture of Gwen and her family, so sweet. You've been busy as usual...love all of your new creations! Your beeswax santa looks so prim and I love your Christmas pinkeep! We have very similar tastes for stitching! (: I'm glad that you are making time for your family this Holiday season...I'm going to do that too. Bless you dear friend!~Kathy
Hi Pam,
Love the family picture too also the cutest Boo baby ever:)
You have been busy and I so love all your work, I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Rondell
Adorable baby! Love seeing all your handiwork. Like the pillow!
Pam, everything looks great! I love rosemary too and have a huge bush of it in my backyard. It stays green all year long here and is considered an evergreeen. It makes the sweetest little purple flowers several times a year too. In fact, it is in bloom right now.
I love to brush past it and get that smell and I also use it to cook with. It's one of my all-time favorite herbs!
Great photos! The baby is growing so fast!
Have a wonderful week!
I really like your beeswax items. They are so primitive looking. I grow rosemary too and like to brush past it and cook with it. I like to tie it into bunches and decorate with it. you are a very talented person.
Have a great week ahead.
Maxine
That first picture of your family is just beautiful!!
Your handmades are so wonderful! I just love the cross stitching you do. Everything is just fantastic and the rosemary is a nice touch too.
Hugs & blessings to you dear friend~ Birgit
Hi Pam. Our Little House is about 10 minutes west of Tawas near Sand Lake. Did you say you were near Gaylord? Have you been to the shop in Cadillac lately, any good holiday goodies? Can't wait to get up there and do some holiday decorating! Wish we could meet one of these days somewhere in between. Talk to you soon, Dawn
Hi Pam, You are so talented. I love,love everything you make and that cross stiching is PERFECT!!!
That is one thing that I don't know how to do. Your grandbaby looks so peaceful in Grandpa's arms.
Thanks for sharing all your creative projects with all of us!!!!
God Bless friend,
Tricia
Hi Pam,
Hey sorry that I am just getting back to you! You asked on my blog if I grow Rose Hips... I don't. But as soon as we move out to the country I will. A little town by us (Sumner) has some cute little prim shops and one of them were selling these outside their shop. Maybe when you come over to visit your daughter you can visit this little town. IF you do, you have to get a hold of me, I don't live too far from Sumner.
Take care Pam and have a lovely Thanksgiving week!
Robin~♥
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, my friend--Have a wonderful day with your beautiful family!
♥love ya
