Brilliant Weblog Award


Thank you to my silly little sister for nominating me for this Brilliant Blog Award! As you know, my sister Jennifer is J. Pease of
Hot Tamale Art Studio She sells wonderfully creative folk art paintings on Ebay. I love her style. I don't have time to keep up with many blogs, but I do enjoy reading another blog, Wonders of Whimsy Her name is also Jenny and she makes some very beautiful dolls. I can't believe how fast she can create such detailed works of art. I used to sew dresses for my daughters when they were little and I ended up spending more time cursing the sewing machine! I do like to look at all the paintings of the other folk artists on ebay. It's funny how you get to know their work and can recognize who painted them before you read the text, like Tascha and Danita. I admire artists with a distinct style. I love when I scroll down the Ebay gallery and notice a new painting of my sister's. You can hear an audible "awwww" from my computer room.

Awwwww, that is nice. I can always find yours too. It is so fun when I do not know what you are putting up and then I come across one! My sound is more like,"CRIS!" Ha ha

Well, it was another nice day on the mountain today, now back to work.

AHHH, wow thanks for all the compliments. I hope you do not get sick of my blog....ever. LOL

I just made a doll dress (now I sitll have to hand stitch the garland on) but I was finished in about 5-10 minutes. WHat? I told my husband " I should just make dressed for kids..LOL Maybe I'd make some money.

I do curse at my machine. But now I just re-thread it and go on and I learned I just have to manually thread it even though it has a threader...that takes more time!!

Thanks again!~
