Back To School



Can't believe summer is over & it's time for school to start.  The weather is still very much summer though.  I hope Fall comes early & we get lots of rain.  June & July have been busy.  Had a kids camp in July.  The kids had lots of fun making items for back to school.  They made altered composition notebooks, clipboards, a pencil holder, & paper bag album.  I will continue to have a kids class once a month.  Been working on some t-shirt quilts for folks.  Have lots of things coming this Fall.  Kaufman Chamber of Commerce is having their Auction the end of Sept.  Kaufman Scarecrow Festival is the end of October along with a Holiday shopping event at Whitworth Ranch in Scurry.
 



And speaking of Whitworth Ranch we just had our first scrapbook retreat there.  We had so much fun & the Ranch is beautiful.  I actually got some of my own scrapbooking done. Got my pictures from 40th birthday which was in May, all in a book.  That's a good feeling to get a whole scrapbook done.

So many Holidays are around the corner.  Already busy making Christmas gifts.  Never to early to start.  Lots of new babies being born which I've been busy making custom baby items. 

So enough about me & what I've been doing.  To God be the glory as this store wouldn't exist without him.  Hoping to host a movie date night in Sept & start a woman's bible study soon.  I meet so many woman with this business & so many are hurting or  just have junk going on in their lives.  Been reading the book Lies Woman Believe & the truth that will set them free.  It is a great book & hope to do the bible study based on this book.  

I will try & get on here more often to give updates.  Please share this blog with your friends.  Come & check out the shop or join us for a crop night.
