Love and Joy Come to You...

I have been a busy little elf in my workshop studio! I am so delighted to bring some new things to you this holiday season.

I have 2 new E-patterns: Salvage Savvy Pincushions and Jeweled Heritage Ornaments and one new E-booklet: The Gingerbread Cottage of Faith Study and How-To, isn’t that exciting? I am filled with smiles these days. I love it when the Lord in His loving kindness brings it all together, it is always amazing to me!

I hope these get you in the gift giving mood. I have worked to make a quality product at an affordable price. Here is a what is new on the website.

Another exciting announcement is that the New Christmas edition of Girlhood Home Companions are being sent out the day after Thanksgiving.

Don’t forget that there is still time to participate in my first ever blog give away! All you have to do is comment on my blog, tell a friend to comment on my blog and finally, go over to Remembrance Press and leave a comment there too. I will then collect all the names and draw one lucky winner on....oooppps! Due to technical difficulties on Remembrance Press' site we are extending the give away Yiiipppeee-I-ay! So I won't draw until Monday Dec.7th, hurry tell all your friends there is still time to enter!

Coming In Mid-March E~Patterns

I am really excited. I will be launching a new category on the website- e~patterns! This spring towards the middle of March this category should be up and running with the first e-pattern. I have been hard at work writing, sketching, photographing and of course sewing, cutting and making these fun patterns for you to enjoy at home.

I wanted to give you a sneak peek.... This will be a great addition to my website because it will allow you, my beloved customers, to easily purchase and download patterns and instructions right to you own computer at home~ISN'T THAT COOL? I think so! I love not having to pay for shipping, but even better is getting started right away on that project I am dying to do!

The first series called: The Cottage Posy Patch E-Pattern Series. This series of patterns will give instructions on how to make some really fun cut felt flowers. Each pattern consists of pattern pieces, instruction and lovely photos giving you step-by step examples of the finished project.

I sure hope you will check out the websitehttp://www.thepatchworkheart.com/ and go to E~Pattern category. Once online payment is made you will be emailed a link to access and download PDF file and save to your computer. It is that easy!

What is new for Christmas at The Patchwork Heart,Co.

Christmas is coming the goose is getting fat,

please put a penny in the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny a half penny will do,
if you haven't got a half penny, then God Bless you!

When I was a girl and we started pulling out Thanksgiving and Christmas decorations I remember singing this little childhood rhyme. I can remember such excitement filled the air. There was something special about the holidays! I don't know exactly where this little jingle comes from I imagine it to be Old English...anyway, I feel the holidays coming don't you?

The smell of wood burning in the hearth, the changing of leaves and the temperature, pulling out warm sweaters, mittens, scarves, hats and cozy slippers. Soon we will be preparing for our Thanksgiving Feast and start ramping up our efforts to get Christmas gifts done. In a effort to practice what I preach I have come up with some wonderful crafting projects for the holidays this year, so you and your favorite girl can get to crafting special gifts too! I am so excited I am bursting at the seams!

These are available now at The Patchwork Heart, Co. Grab a cup of hot Harvest Time Cider and come sit for a visit. I look forward to hearing from you.
