FRUSTRATIONS

I may as well be riding THIS horse.... since I am not getting anywhere ....
 I finally got my computer back for the second time and what a mess.
They re-installed my Windows XP... fine... but now I cannot find my pictures... all my pictures are nowhere to be found, and that is just one problem. My emails numbered 11,000 until the server finally stopped those.I could go on and on, but I won't.
I just wanted all my faithful followers to know it seems it will be awhile before I can update my Etsy Shop, or share any of my fun times with you.Lets hope I can get the answers soon.
Thanks to The Graphics Fairy  I managed to find this adorable picture that fit the bill!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

UPDATE

 

Hi everyone,
I am still without my computer ! I am using my DH's for now when I can. He is always busy with his geniology!!
I just spent 2 days with a wonderful group of ladies taking a doll making workshop with Dollmaker Colleen Babcock from England . I can hardly wait to show you the doll and pictures of all the fun we had. I can't post my pictures from this computer so I guess it will happen later rather than sooner.
Hopefully I can catch up next week so don't be discouraged.... SOON I hope.
Til then... happy creating
xoxo
Maggie

STUDIO TOUR INFO

Hi to all my local followers here in Southern Ontario, Canada.
I thought I would post some info about the Studio Tour in case you were interested.
The link above shows all the artists and what they are offering. The link will also take you to a map of the different studios.
Hope you can make it. There is no admission and lots to see..

Studio Tour Offerings

I have been working long hours getting ready for the Artists of Oxford County Studio Tour.
I thought you might want to see some of my things that I have added recently..
...

I Love to bead earrings and bracelets.. these are some I have been woking on

These bags I call "Bare Necessities" They are the perfect size..(7"x10") . I used a variety of tapesty fabrics. The front of the bag has a good sized pocket, and the bag has a zipper closure.

 

these fish bags are so much fun and always stimulate conversation.

I call them "(Catch Of The Day")

I hope I gave you a few minutes of pleasure viewing these..
Thanks for stopping by

HAPPY EASTER

I'M HOME

hi everyone,
I am home from retreat amd what a great time we had.
We stayed at 5-Oaks in Paris..... NOT FRANCE!! but Ontario.. We have been going there for about 15 years twice a year to sew and enjoy the company of  friends.It is far from the maddening crowds  and the are has lots of trails for walking and enjoying nature. Unfortunately the weather was horrible with snow and rain so we just stayed inside and worked on our projects!

Everyone brings snacks. Seems they were taking over the cutting station!ever

Our meals were provided and sooooo yummy.

Someone was fooling around with my camera!!!

Hi-HO-HI-HO OFF TO RETREAT I GO
