More Santa's

Oh I love the fall. And even though I have been creating my Santa's since May I get more excited now it is fall. So this is the beginning of my show and tell. Some have muslin needle sculpted faces and some have my carved clay faces. I really like going back and forth.
Ok that is enough for now.
These and more can be found on my new Etsy store. Primitivesbygloria

Americana Santa

This week I have offered 3 Santa Stars on Ebay. I especially love the America one.
The link is :http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Lowell-Country-Designs_Finished-Items_W0QQ_fsubZ8QQ_sidZ33355049QQ_trksidZp4634Q2ec0Q2em322
The faces are hand carved and hand painted so each one is a one of a kind. The Americana fabric dates back to 2001. It is the very last piece. I love it because it has a slight tea dye look.
Have a nice Sunday.

Tri- Fold Large Wallets

I have been making large tri-fold wallets for nearly 10 years. I just love that you can organize your whole life in one. I finally retired the one I made for myself 6 years ago. I feel rather bad for my old wallet. It had become like an old friend or that favorite pair of old jeans. BUT IT WAS TIME. I decided on a blue,gray, cream and green print by Amy Butler. In fact I liked it so much that I made another one just like it and put it on Etsy this morning. I love to embellish with special buttons. Either handmade ceramic, fabric covered or vintage.

Santa climbing a Candy Cane

Hi,
Several days ago I finished a 7" candy cane with a 4" Santa. It was truely a labor of love because the Santa has tiny little legs and srms. Just turning and stuffing them was a chore. But I do love a challenge. The pictures don't do this ornament any justice. I have put him on ebay for auction. The starting bid was $1.00.

Busy Aug.

Wow where has this month gone to? My daughter and her 3 little ones were here for week. The twins are 3 and the little one is 2. They are busy...very BUSY! It took this Gran a week to recover. Gosh they are so cute though and say the darnest things.
Anyway I am getting back on track. I plan on sewing a bag or 2 today. Love going into my fabric stash.
Have a great weekend.
