RagamuffinPrims

Well - after stuffing literally tens of thousands of these little beasties, it's time to hang up my stuffing tools. So - I will now be offering pdf patterns for all of my creations. I left the rest of the info here as it was - to provide a little background. Thank you all for your continued enthusiasm for my creations. ~ Laura

It all started with one little brown primitive pig. I was making rag dolls and primitive folk art dolls, experimenting with different techniques and designs. Sometime in the spring of 2009, near the Cave Creek boat ramp in KY. I wanted to try something different and created this plain brown pig. Over the next few years, one pig became thousands. The pigs were joined by more primitive dolls, holiday primitives, and other barnyard folk. Through the years, the plain prim pigs became pig ornaments and went into the world by the thousands. They were featured in magazines. Kentucky gave way to Florida. I retired. Then I didn't. The Cave Creek name changed to Ragamuffin Prims (aka Ragamuffin Primitives).

Through it all, it is still just me, doing what I love - creating quirky, quality primitives that make people smile.

Quality and customer satisfaction are very important to me. I was taught to take pride in my work, and I will fuss for hours over a piece until I'm satisfied. That being said, please remember these creations are primitives. Loose threads, asymmetrical shapes, ragged seams and other quirky traits are intentional and part of the design.

Ragamuffin Prims are intended as primitive art, home décor and collectibles. They are not intended as toys and are not suitable for small children.

Thank you to all of my loyal customers. You continue to amaze me with your enthusiasm for my creations. Thanks for visiting and taking time to read this. I hope my primitives make you smile.
