"DESIGNS THAT REFLECT OUR
AMERICAN HERITAGE"

Welcome to my blog. I'm probably very much like all of you who love the needlearts. My life revolves around family, friends, home and all things that help to make for a more contented life. When time allows; cooking, gardening, decorating, and collecting are my joys. I look forward to sharing all of these things with you. I also hope to keep you up to date on what is going on at Homespun Elegance, in regard to the needlework designs and the "Plain & Fancy Wares" that we offer.

Wishing you "Many Happy Stitches".

Few Little Glimpses

Good Afternoon Everyone!
My day isn't going as planned.  I wanted to make
Navy Bean soup this am.  Thought I had everything
I needed.  Should have known better - got my 
country ham out of the freezer and it looked way too 
dry.  Just couldn't bring myself to use it.  So off to
the grocery store, uck, on a Sunday morning.  Here
it is 2:00 in the afternoon and it is finally cooking
away.  The last couple of weeks I've been
trying to make something (doubling the recipe)
that I can take to Richmond and have for dinner
on Monday night.  Avery is a lot more active now
which doesn't leave much leisure time in the
afternoons for cooking.  Last week I made 
Brunswick Stew.  So good - just says Autumn.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Coming your way soon, I hope, will be
"Crow House"
from my
"A Halloween Year" Collection.  This is the second
one in the new series.

Moving on to Christmas -
"Christmas Silhouettes"
AND FOR YOUR SHOPPING
PLEASURE, I HAVE FOR YOU ~
Note the painted wooden disk
embellished with a faux berry
wreath, well I have a few of
these available.  
$13.00 which includes shipping
He is hand painted by me on a 3" wooden
disk that is 1/2" thick.  Hanging cord
is included. 

Also, I have this hand-painted (by me)
pumpkin pillow.  I painted it on jute
and then stitched it to a wool felt
pillow.  The pillow measures 
11 1/2" Wide X 9" High and is
lightly stuffed with polyfil.
 ~~~$32.00 which includes the shipping~~~
SOLD - THANK YOU!
Something from my former shop inventory.  I promised
to start offering these things to you.  Just never seem
to have the time to go to my bulging storage unit.
These are hooked ears of corn.  I have some and they
are so much fun to decorate with.  
The ear is about 5" long.  Including the raffia
top they are about 10" long.
You will receive both of them.
~~~$9.00 which includes the shipping~~~
SOLD - THANK YOU BONNIE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just let me know if there is anything you are interested
in.  I take Paypal, Visa, MasterCard, and personal checks.
Have a great rest of the day.  I'm looking forward to my
soup and some more designing.
Many Happy Stitches,
Sandra
