February Finally!!!

Life has been much busier than I thought it would be this time of year, Things are always busier than I think they will be.
The new patterns are coming along well. Just to let you know they are inspired from my summers in Maine, visiting family near the coast. One dear great aunt still lives on the family farm that has been in the family since the 1800s. They still has the legal right to go over whatever land they need to, in order to get to the coast, as the document was signed by a king of England long ago and is still valid. She still runs a vegetable stand on the road to her home and continues to work hard. I believe she is in her mid 80s. I hope to be as active and stubborn as she is down the road.

Another duty is the start working on the Primitive Crafters and Designers Blog with Kim Owens of Folk Art from the Heart. I am looking forward to working with Kim. Should be fun.

Also another group, Olde Primitive Sisters is starting a new website and I am happy to be a part of that also. I enjoy working with Bebe and the other great prim artists there. Will let you know when it is open for business.

Back to work. Hope everyone stays warm. Winter is definitely not over yet.

It's chilly here this morning. At minus ten degrees we worked fast to get all the animals fed and then we hurried back into the house. Thought I would post a several photos of the beauty we see here every day. The farm is a beautiful place any time of year, and I wanted to share it with you. Guess I will work on some pattern ideas this weekend and try to stay warm. Looking forward to letting all of you know when the new line of patterns is available. Stay warm!!

Prairie Harvest Folk Art and Primitives

This is the new blog for Prairie Harvest Folk Art and Primitives. Here at the farm we use the simple hills and pastures for the inspiration to create folk art and primitives. We strive to live the simple life here. It's not hard to do.

When not working the farm, I enjoy creating hand painted folk art that reflects the simple life from years ago and from here today. I enjoy making dolls, make-dos bowl fillers and anything that enhances a primitive style, country style home. I think that it adds to the stability of a home. It makes it seem, though from the past, still timeless.

Check back with us often to see what is new.
