~~SHE SEEKETH WOOL.......~~

Well she's back. My plate is now all glazed and fired and she still looks the same! I thought when she was glazed, fired and all finished up for some reason she'd look 100 times better but she still looks the same so she still has way too much hair but I guess that's why I'm a hooker and not a potter. Next year when I do this I'm going to be much more prepared and have my design all drawn out and ready to transfer to my plate when I get there. When I picked her up Ned Foltz told me he really still likes this plate. He loves the "primitive look".....yes I'd say she does have the primitive look, that's for sure. So there she is... the mascot for my blog... She Seeketh Wool...... I think the sheep are running that way...............Blessings to all....~Cyndi

~~PAY IT FORWARD~~

Let's continue this great game my friend Ginger of Primitives by The Light of the Moon came up with. The first 10 people that leave a comment on here will receive a surprise!!! I have some goodies all ready to go out so be sure to leave your email address so I can contact you and get your snail mail address to mail you your goodie!!

To keep this going you then post this PAY IT FORWARD on your blog and keep it going. Just keep your gifts small (something that can fit in a manilla envelpe or just a regular envelope) It makes you feel good to send something to someone and make their day and bring a smile to their face!!

Thanks Ginger!!

Blessings to all............ Cyndi

My Friend Buzz

My Friend Buzz

Geez.... where does the time go?? It's about time I get back on here. Life has definately gotten in the way of blogging, hooking and everything I want to be doing this summer. I need to really keep at this blogging because when I come back to it I have no idea what I'm doing.

Thanks for all the comments and encouragement in this venture I'm trying to accomplish with a million other things I'm also trying to accomplish. Over the next few weeks I am going to start introducting my family, my furry kids and my redware plate will be finished this weekend and I'm so anxious to see the final product and I am hoping that poor woman looks better glazed and fired then she looks in the raw stages.

First issue at hand is my friend Buzz. Many of you know of Buzz as I have asked you all for prayers as he took a leap of faith when he was diagnosed with lymph node cancer in May 2007. He went through an awful year and I tried and tried to help in any way I could to pull him through. I hope I did. You also know that I hooked him a Leap of Faith rug which was my first blog entry here and can be seen in the older posts.

Well I am proud to say and happy to say that Buzz is back to life and living it at it's fullest. He is back to his music and new projects and flying by the seat of his pants!!! He is smiling and happy and a whole new person. I cannot be happier for him. He is busy busy busy with so many new things happening in his life. He now has a website on My space. You can see that and see the many new things he is doing by visiting at www.myspace.com/BuzzSaylor. Hope that link works for you.

I am also going to post a picture of this great guy here for you all to see my friend Buzz. I'm so proud of him with everything he had to endure this past year. I honestly do not know how he kept the faith and made it though each day with the challenges he faced but I know and believe in the power of prayer and I thank you all for all the prayers and cards you sent his way. He was truly moved by this gesture from the rug hooking community of people all over the US that did not even know him.

OK... that's about all for this week. Next week I'll try to have a picture up here of my hubby Greg..... I think I'll put up our wedding picture and then after that I'll start with my family and introduce you to my parents, brothers and their wives and then my furry kids. Try to get a rug or two in there too!! Have a great rest of the summer!!!

Many Blessings.... ~Cyndi
