Pincushion Giveaway

Little pumpkin patch

These are my little pumpkins I made a few years ago. They were so easy to make. The stem is made from a real tree limb. The limb was found on the ground so that no trees were injured in the making of these pumpkins.

Crafting

I have never tried needle felting, so thought I would give it a try. This is my first project, a little pumpkin. There seems to be endless amount of things one can create with needle felting, so stay tuned to see what else I can learn to create. And yes, those needles are very sharp.

This is one of the bears I've made. In fact, this is the first bear I have ever made. The pattern is from, A Stitch In Time. I was surprised by how easy they were to make.

My Dogs



This is a picture of my newest Border Collie Molly. Molly as a puppy, Feb. 2010




Molly August, 2010.


















This is our Buster. He is also a Border Collie. We got Buster when he was a puppy, and he is now
8 years old, that's 56 years old to you and me. However, he keeps on herding like he was the energizer bunny.






Best friends,

Shakespeare and Daisy.






This is Shakespeare. He is my daughters dog. They both live here on the farm. All the animals on the farm have a job, and his is to catch flies inside the house. It is a natural talent, and he is very good at it. He is a good dog and a pretty boy too.




This is Daisy. She is the baby of the house. And why not, just look at that cute little face. At one point in time, Dachshunds were bred as badger hunters. Daisy must be doing a good job at hunting badgers, because I have not seen one badger around here at all.

As of now, that is all the dogs that live here on the farm.

Hi my name is Diane and this blog is about country living. I live on a small farm in north Florida. I have four dogs, one inside cat, ten goats, plenty of chickens, two bee hives, and some cows. When I'm not taking care of animals, I enjoy making crafts of all kinds.
Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you will enjoy.
