Hello to all! My name is Kim Bour other wise known as The Smiling Goat.I am a stay at home Mom, Wife, and Artist. We live in the foothills of North Carolina with 4 cats,1 dog,2 horses, and 2 guinea pigs!! Can ya tell I'm a pet lover?! I love to create whether it be making dolls, rug hooking, or painting to name a few.
Yes it's that time of the year where all of us that work with our hands start to share our Christmas/Holiday pieces! I'm sure alot of you have even started earlier than this! There is never enough time each year to get everything that I have dreamed up created. I say this every year!! So with that I have listed my first Santa ! Very prim and Folky indeed he is! Could this possibly be a pattern in the works....we'll see.................
Hi eveyone! Yesterday was a pretty busy day as every Saturday is! Taylor's Volleyball team had 2 games and the other JV team had 1. Our Sports Association held a pancake breakfast as a fundraiser too. My day started at 6 am and ended at 1 am! The night ended with me taking Taylor and 3 friends to a Haunted Trail! NEVER again! But I am working vigorously to get my Black Santa done. For he will be put into a pattern! Yippee! and a snowman too. For right now I have 2 dollies on E-bay that would love a new home!One is wearing a cotton childs dress from the turn-of-the century! The both end on Thursday Oct.8th. Thanks for peeking! Now I must go cook some breakfast for the masses.See ya soon!
Hi All! Yes i know it's been awhile since I have blogged. With school starting and Taylor being involved with Volleyball, me co-ordinating and coaching, it's been pretty crazy around here!
I had such a great response in requesting that this Olde Crow Witch be turned into a pattern that I decided to do so!So she is now available in a pattern and if you would like her please give me a shout!
The PFATT Marketplace will be clebrating Christmas in July on the 10th of July! This month should be just as great as last month's Hallowe'en in June! Tons of eye candy and I will have several new pieces to offer (keeping my toes and fingers crossed)!! So stay tuned maybe I can get a sneek peek up here before the deadline!
Wow I have been busy...busy...busy! Hallowee'n is my favorite theme to create and I have been really sewing up a storm here! Plus trying to keep Taylor busy at the same time! I had forgot to post the 2 sweet creations and they will be ending this Sunday the 5th of July on E-bay!They are both very precious especially the Hallowe'en Raggedy!Here's some pics
Well this Gal was supposed to be listed last night. See I use Vendio to list my items, very fast for me, and when I went to launch this doll I didn't pay attention to see if she had listed. Not until I spoke with a friend, an hour later, that I was told it had not showed up on E-bay! Yep I guess E-bay has some NEW policy about handling descriptions on you auction listing. Well of course I didn't know and when I found out it was to late to try to fix it! You know why are they always fixing things that aren't broke??!!!! Soooooooo I guess I will have the kinks worked out today and will list her tonight...Geeeez louiseeeeeeeee !! Anyway isn't she sweet!!??
It's that time again folks! The PFATT Marketplace will be opening it's doors for a new update tommorrow on the 10th. This is the Hallowe'en Spooktacular! Where everyone's wares are Hallowe'en or Fall themed. So set your clocks and go take peek! I am showing my 2 pieces here as a sneak peek!
There is the very Folky Pumpkin Witch and her purse and the ever so lovely sweet pumpkin gal with her bag!
I get so excited right around the 1st of June! I know time is a ticking to one of my favorite times of the year! This is a video that was made last year. I hope to get a new one made soon!
