Harvey the Spotted Fish Catnip Crinkle Cat Toy GIANT SIZE

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:00:02 -0500

$6.00
Doesn't your cat deserve a special toy of its own? Harvey is made just for your kitty with soft, thick bright yellow fleece and completed in the hoop on my embroidery machine except for a few hand stitches after stuffing! The giant size is large enough to share with all the cats in the house. [I have to admit my puppy loves Harvey too, catnip and all!] Other fleece colors are available for the asking.

Harvey measures about 5.5" long [plus another 7" for the tail] and 4.5" wide. This fishy pet toy is stuffed with polyester flufferfil, crinkly sounding stuff and a generous scoop of yummy organic catnip, grown right here in the U.S. Due to this, it is not washable/dryable. However, you can refresh with a spray of liquid catnip when needed. If you prefer your toy without catnip and/or crinkly sounding stuff, you must state this during the order process. The tail is made from a colorful assortment of rick rack and ribbon!

Harvey is extremely sturdy and can last through several months of being chewed on and tossed around, unlike some store bought catnip toys that may be cheaper.

As you can see, my cat Rosie loves hers! I know your kitty will love one of their very own.

Quilted Zippered Red Pepper Fabric Case

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:00:02 -0500

$12.00
I made this case for travel with a mobile hard drive in mind, but I can think of many other uses for it.

The zipper on one side holds your hard drive and the zipper on the opposite side holds the USB cord. My hard drive measures 3" wide X 5.5" long X .5" deep and fits nicely into this case which measures 4.25" wide X 6.5" long.

The brightly colored red pepper 100% cotton fabric is extra heavy and quilted with cotton batting inbetween layers of fabric for extra protection in case it is dropped. It was made completely on my home embroidery machine with the exception of the reinforced seams which were finished on my serger. Completely machine washable.

Makes a cute gift for someone who loves the red pepper fabric. Perfect for travel!

Lavender Dryer Bags or Sachet Set of 3

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:00:02 -0500

$9.00
Stitched these up on my embroidery machine and stuffed them with good smellin' lavender. Pop one in your dryer with your wet clothes instead of a dryer sheet for a subtle lavender scent. Can be used several times in the dryer. Also good for placing in smelly sock drawers.

The stitching in the top seam can be opened with a seam ripper for restuffing with fresh lavender, then just stitch by hand or machine to close again.

Each one measures 4-1/2" x 2-1/4". Two are embroidered with the word "Lavender" and one says "Lavender dryer bag". They would be great in a gift basket full of smelly, frilly stuff...the perfect thing to give to a friend to cheer them up.

You get all three lavender bags!! Yours will be made up fresh when ordered. Thanks for looking!!

Lace Prayer Angel has heart

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:00:02 -0500

$3.00
Made completely of thread and stitched on my embroidery machine, this delicate lace angel brings comfort to those in need of prayers. These angels have a stitch count of nearly 24,000!

She is approx. 4.5" from the bottom of her hem to the top of her "hands" and 4.5 from wing tip to wing tip when flat. She is shown with her hands connected in front and wings connected in back. I've also attached a picture of her flat, which is how she will be mailed to you.

All you need to do is push one of her hands through the loop on her other hand and do the same thing with the wings in the back. Tweezers are very helpful for this process. She also comes with a long length of matching ribbon for hanging. The color choice is yours to make. Any color is possible.

I have given away many of these angels. This one was given to a friend who is in treatment for lymphoma. Everything I earn selling these will be used to purchase more thread so I can keep making these angels.

Do you know someone who needs a little comfort and support?

If you would like more than one, please send me an email and I will create a new listing just for you.

Hardanger Heirloom Hanging Prayer Angel

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:00:01 -0500

$7.00
Hardanger embroidery or "Hardangersøm" is a form of embroidery traditionally worked with white thread on white even-weave cloth, using counted thread and drawn thread work techniques. It is sometimes called Whitework embroidery.

This beautiful heirloom quality hardanger angel was made on my home embroidery machine using a wing needle and cutwork. This process requires a lot of labor. The design can be stitched in one color or two colors, as seen in the last picture. Colors are your choice [if you do not specify colors, angel will be white on white]. The cotton fabric used is white.

This listing is for an angel measuring only 2.5" high by 2.5" wide. She appears much larger and looks identical both front and back. Her gold halo doubles as a hanger in case you want to add ribbon. A perfect addition to a bible, as an ornament on a Christmas tree or even a gift tag!

Angel also available in 3.75" X 4.25" size for $10.00 plus shipping. Please email me if you would like the larger size and I will create a listing just for you.

Whoever receives this angel will surely treasure it and pass it on as a family heirloom.
