FInally! Here is some random stuff...From me!

Here is one of the aprons that is in my shop right now. The one I am actually wearing I made for a friend of ours, but I purchased enough fabric to make one on any size for anyone else interested. To see more, you just have to go to my shop on Etsy.com. And yes, that is the rabbit--and it isn't even just a yard ornament any more! Whoo-hoo!
This is me modeling my outdoors skirt and proving that you can ride horses in these crazy things! This particular skirt is made out of extra heavy material that is kind of like canvas and also some heavy floral stuff that I picked up from the thrift store. My sweater (100% wool and hand-knit in Italy) I also picked up at the thrift store...for a dollar. Oh, the hat? Yes, that too; 100% wool felt from the thrift store....
Grendle of course, was a real good sport about all of this picture stuff. She is an awfully beautiful horse, and I am as proud as can be to be pictured with her. If Grendle can't sell my skirts, I don't know WHO can!
Isn't that floral just beautiful? I have just enough to make one other lucky gal an outdoors skirt that is just like mine! We could be twinkies!


Here, of course is Ursa/Ursula. This is when the river was completely frozen over and she and Barrett had to motor across it. You can't see it too well, but the entire surface is ice, it's snowing, and really cold. Ursa is getting used to all of the boat stuff, and has been a really good dog for us. She isn't terribly large, but she is very stocky and I think she could do some damage if someone had some bad intentions. You should see what she does to rope and squeaky toys...they ain't gonna squeak ever again...that's for sure.



Here is Barrett displaying Breeze in her new calling in life: driving. We finally got out and worked with her, and she seems pretty promising. ...is she licking his arm? What a goofy horse! Anyway, we are excited about that and she seems to enjoy it. Barrett, of course, is still the coolest. (nice pants, who patched 'em?)

Anyway, we are doing superb out here. I hope to make some sales soon. I am slowly but surely making different things to stock my store, but if any of you family of mine wants something, feel free to ask! I've got all kinds of things up my sleeves! More aprons, more skirts, some draw-string bags, and who knows what else is on the way!
