One more swap

I belong to The Primitive Artisan's Guild and we are doing a monthly ornie swap. I made the reindeer for Kat and Karen made me the sheep and stocking pin with my name on it.

Another swap

I swapped with Diane on primraggchatters at yahoo groups another halloween swap. She made the witch with the tilted head and I made the pumpkin witch.

Swapping

I did a Halloween swap on InternationalPrimdollmakers at yahoo groups as well. This is what I sent and received. The cat is what I made the witch is what I received from Kirrily.

More swaps

I also did an autumn leaves pincushion swap on my yahoo group Crazyaboutpincushions. This is from Loretta. I have not finished hers or my other partners yet, but as soon as they receive theirs I will post pics. Thanks Loretta.

Been swapping again

Well this time I did a fall swap on my yahoo group Aprimitiveheart. This was fun since I didn't have any fall decorations to put up in my house. Which is odd because I adore this time of year. Thanks to my partner Laura for her generosity and her talent.

Faery tree at work

This is one of my favorite spots at work, this is what I call my faery tree. At the base of the tree there is an opening just large enough for a faery or little leprechaun to fit into. I finally remembered to bring my camera so I could take a picture of it. Isn't it breathtaking?

Old houses and friends

Willie is the custodian for Meadowlands, the place I work. He has been working here for 35 years. He is my dearest friend and has adopted us as we have adopted him. He is an orphan, so every year we have him for Thanksgiving as well as other times for dinner throughout the year. After almost 10 months has has decided to hold my grandson and I captured this great picture of them last week.

Where I work

I have the distinct pleasure to work in one of the most beautiful places in Northern California. Not only is the campus incredibly beautiful, but the office I work in is in the ground floor of a 120+ year old victorian house named Meadowlands. Here is a picture of it.

Been awhile

Since I have posted, a dear friend I have known since I was 17 has died in a motorcycle accident, that is the third death in my life in 8 weeks. This hit pretty hard because he has been a part of my life for so long and it has left a hole in my heart.

I have been creating here and there, mostly for swaps and things, but do have a few pictures to share with you all.
