I will be having a Christmas Update on Sunday night. 12-4-11. I will post the time later this week. I will have Santas, Snowmen, Stockings & more, so please make note of this date.

One More Pattern

I have been asked to make up a pattern for my Big Snowman that I had at the show, and with the help of Angie Sutter (she took a picture for me) I have it added along with the Santa I pictured below to Pattern Mart & of course, I have them available on my Picture Trail. They are simply called XLG Santa Make Do & XLG Snowman. :) Blessings~~Jackie

Slowly but Surely.....

Hello everyone~~I finally decided that it was time to do a little work on my blog!! I really haven't changed much since I started it a few years back. So,,,, I decided today was the day.... but then I discovered that a lot has changed!! I could not get it to work using my aol or internet explorer. I guess my laptop is getting old like me! :) So, I finally figured out what I needed to download to get back on track. This ended up being a lot more than I had planned, so I will work on it slowly, here & there to get things the way I want them. I am working on another Christmas order, and trying to get things stashed away for the Simple Goods Show in Nov., so please bear with me as I work this all out. In the end, I hope you will like it. Blessings to all~~Jackie

Just A Few New Items

Hello everyone!! It seems like forever since I've been able to do an update!! I've been busy filling orders, fixing our computer systems & getting the girls ready for school. It's hard to believe that I only have 2 left at home & they just started Jr. High & High School!! Where does the time go?? Before I know it I'll be an empty nester! Some days that sounds really good ;) and others not so good. Well, I don't have a lot of time, so I will get to the point!! I just put a few things for Fall on our Picture Trail, so if you have a minute, stop over & take a peek! I hope you will find something that you like! Also, I want to wish everyone a wonderful Labor Day Week End!! Please have fun & be safe!! Blessings to all~~~Jackie

Now just 1 Christmas order to go & I will be all caught up. :) I am however squeezing in a few new things to post on our Picture Trail possibly tomorrow night! That's what I'm hoping for, but we'll see how it goes. It will just be a few things until I get can get enough finished for a big Fall on-line open house that will be around the end of August or early part of Sept. I will post more about that later. So, please check back here or on our Face Book page tomorrow night to see when the little update will be. I will send out an e-mail  also, so if you are not on our mailing list & would like to sign up, please e-mail me at tfcfolkart@aol.com & I will get you added. Until then, stay cool & be blessed! ~Jackie

P.S.~~I just found out that Sandy Schutt lost her son to cancer, so if you could all lift up her & her family in prayer, I'm sure she would appreciate it.

Hello Everyone!! Well, we were gone to WI. visiting family for almost a week, but now we are back and I have just added a few new things to our "this & that" album on our Picture Trail.

Good morning! Just a quick note to let you know that I listed 3 new patterns on Pattern Mart and on our Picture Trail. They are.... Belle, Margie & Fall Wreath. Stop over and take a look! Have a great day!! Blessings~Jackie

More New Items!!

Hello Everyone!! Well, I have been busy finishing up a few things & just got them listed on my Picture Trail. I added items to the Fall Album & the New Update Album, so be sure to check in both of them to see what's new. :) I have also been working on 3 new patterns that I will have ready tomorrow morning. I tried to have them ready for the update, but there's just not enough hours in the day. I will work on them some tonight, but I want to take a few hours to just relax with the family. Also....I may add a few things next Tuesday. Not a lot, just a couple of things IF I get them done! On Next Friday *June 17th* we will be leaving for vacation for a week, so any e-mails that come in during that time may not get answered right away. I'll try to get to them, but I can't say for sure....I'm going to try real hard to just relax & not do too much business! Well, that's it for now! Blessings~~Jackie

A Couple of Fall Items!!

Well, I have been itching to do a few small Fall items & have just added them to our Picture Trail. I will be doing a bigger update on next Thursday (June 9th). I will have more new things for you to look at then, & hopefully another new pattern or two. :) I have decided it's a lot easier for me to add things as I go since I am still watching the grandbaby 40+ hrs. a week. She is a lot of fun....walking...no RUNNING all over the place & getting into everything!! I have to say that some days she just wears me out!! I guess that's why we have them when we're younger! Anyhow....that's why I added a few things today....it just gets too much for me to get everything added all at once, but on Thursday I will be adding the most stuff. So check back next Thurs. I'll post on here when it is all ready to go! Blessings~~Jackie

I hope to see some of you there, but if you can't make it, I hope you have a Blessed Easter week end!! ~Jackie

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO RAEGHAN & 6 NEW PATTERNS!!

I will take pictures at her party on Sat. & post a few for you early next week.
