Rofl I love it a toilet!!!!!
OH Stepahine I own a Singer Featherweight, we fiugred it was close to 80 years old. What was that about singer numbers guys.
Jess, I love the sound it makes, it is so cool and just the right size to take places. It was given to me. What an amazing treat. I love oiling it and taking care of it. Apronfest, that baby will be with me. It is grand for quilting blocks. They are so popular here that the normal price is 500.00.
A gal I had an aquantance(sp) with found one at Goodwill for 35. because they didn't know what they had. What a deal!!!!
Nay, you are going to bed, shock, good girl that you are.

Enjoying life.

Carol Sue,

I had my hands on one for $35 in a goodwill but it belonged to someone else and I couldn't even bribe her with lots of money to let me have it..LOL So I guess Ebay will be the next place to try for one..maybe next year after I get moved.

You got yourself a teasure there Carol Sue...

LOL I love it. so does he want to be a toilet or an out house? Well they do have a knighting cermony at 1:30..

I just make the boys boring tunics they wash and dry easily. But I did get Bill into a kilt. It is a loteasier than a pair of pants with the leg thing. Hopefully I will feel up to it, but when the weather gets cold, I want to make Baby Henry a gnome outfit. and Peanut a velvet doublet and pumpkin pant.

So Jess, I guess if you can make transform an entire family into a Ren Faire fam....then I should be able to pull off 1 little dress......I will put this onto next week's schedule....as this week's is already full. I only have today and tomorrow to sew this week. We leave for 4 more days in NYC so hubby can get some CME credits.....but I will be loose in the city for 4 days.

AND I am meeting (sewgirlie) Sheryl-lyn at a fabric store in the city for a "blind date"

Hi Jess and Bev, I don't think I'd call them "cute" but I do miss being on a farm..I loved watching the animals (I was a kid and didn't have any animal chores) being a girl I only did housework..yuk

Posting and sewing all the day long...la la la

They are fun to watch...we only have a heard of rabbits, and at my sisters about 6 miles away a little lambie who lives with her myotonics and pygmies and her flock of chickens! My husband is too anal for very many animals...we are working him into things slowly! But I just love love love guineas...if we ever get our 100 acres like we want...i will have guineas and horses again...I miss horses so much it nearly kills me. As soon as my baby is a little older, I am going to volunteer at a theraputic riding facility about 1/2 mile down the road from me...they have recreational lessons, and a special program for handicap and special needs children who want to ride. Working with someone elses horses horses is better than nothing.

Keep showing us your guineas as they grow Bev!!

They love love love bugs...especially ticks...that is one of their uses. Some people we know raise em and eat em...but I think that family would eat just about anything if it once had a heartbeat!

Hmmm eat bugs, I think I am in love already. How do they like flies?

There is a fly problem at the renfaire.... they get caught in out tent. Bill sits there and swats them.... is there a better way?
