<br />
When Barb and I joined forces to sell on eBay several years ago, we decided to create a new entity, even though we both had our own businesses with perfectly good names. Barb's business (hand-dyed wool and whimsical woolen creatures) is thimblefolk. My business (rug hooking and needle punch supplies) is The Paisley Studio. On eBay we were Hallowed Hill Primitives. Three business and three blogs. It is just too much.<br />
<br />
Not to worry -- we are still here. We will continue to sell on eBay under the name The Paisley Studio. I will write The Paisley Studio blog and Barb will write the thimblefolk blog. We'll both keep you up to date with what's going on -- listings on eBay, etsy, American Folk Art, and The Primitive Gathering -- as well as what shows we'll be doing. We're just getting rig of a not very appropriate name.<br />

While we were missing 2 of our most active members due to illness (Barbara and Jenna feel better soon!), we had a really nice evening. We had lots of food -- I made a pumpkin roll cake with cream cheese icing, the remains of which you see here.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiKJ20RHU8H0x9cifaS8yledGv5IfIwaIxk1oDsXRZKj5y449KgmCKpZqptGAci7wof9wQTZlahcZDrnLFcl4jR1KXuXSTra1Gfnwj0Do-gEJRf6afOpVXgDvQGWg7Flk_EUjT9r8IHAd2/s1600-h/rollcake.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiKJ20RHU8H0x9cifaS8yledGv5IfIwaIxk1oDsXRZKj5y449KgmCKpZqptGAci7wof9wQTZlahcZDrnLFcl4jR1KXuXSTra1Gfnwj0Do-gEJRf6afOpVXgDvQGWg7Flk_EUjT9r8IHAd2/s320/rollcake.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278186035749164738" /></a><br />You can find the recipe <a href="http://www.verybestbaking.com/recipes/detail.aspx?ID=32372">here</a> -- very easy and no fat in the cake! (The icing is a different story, however!).<br /><br />We had a great Chinese auction, too -- I got rid of lots of gifts that I had never used (I've been cleaning out with fervor to get ready for our renovations). I donated a couple of new patterns, too. I was lucky enough to win a beautiful basket made by Barbara Blossey-Chuvalas(I put almost all my tickets in the bag to give me a better chance of winning), but I re-gifted it immediately to Andrea of <a href="http://myworld.ebay.com/its.all.about.the.wool">its.all.about.the.wool</a>. Andrea wanted that basket so much, I think she had her fingers, legs, arms, and eyes crossed when Judy drew the winning ticket. The look on Andrea's face when I passed it to her was a gift to me! (Of course, I forgot to bring my camera . . . )<br /><br />I won a vintage framed picture of Little Miss Muffet -- don't know what I'll do with her, but she's cute.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-MglOmtXqDIvbjESpnBsu1760-APnDzQKAnXXLeKWmNEKBon9qGGYS3NPwfsV32a0xnCwf_Xz_QVHjWqK3msoh5NNKB5h2AyMVE2PA9h_dbnj2fxrIlP7oZhWsGZK8sPLOz0bIfmEie7r/s1600-h/MissmuffettJPG.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-MglOmtXqDIvbjESpnBsu1760-APnDzQKAnXXLeKWmNEKBon9qGGYS3NPwfsV32a0xnCwf_Xz_QVHjWqK3msoh5NNKB5h2AyMVE2PA9h_dbnj2fxrIlP7oZhWsGZK8sPLOz0bIfmEie7r/s320/MissmuffettJPG.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278198489499431138" /></a>We had a wonderful evening -- I didn't get home til 10:30!<br /><br />Our guild is 12 years old now.

We had lots of returning customers mixed in with the new and we met some online friends, too. I was pleased to see Naomi of <a href="http://ravensgateprims.blogspot.com/">Ravens Gate Primitives</a> again. We first met at the Fairfield rug show back in the spring. My friend Christine Henson, owner of <a href="http://nowandzenyarns.com/">Now and Zen Yarns</a> in Greenport, checked in with her husband Charlie Thorp (Charlie built my studio several years ago.) A whole passel of Peconic Ruggers showed up -- they all rode up on the bus with the local spinners' guild: Ron, Barbara, Judy, Jennifer, Sally, Sue all looked exhausted by the end of the day. As always, Abby Vakay -- who was palling with Tracy Jamar -- had boundless energy. It was great to see them all. And Barb and I really enjoy chatting with Toni from <a href="http://www.thefoldatmc.net/">The Fold</a>, who sells Socks That Rock yarn. Her booth always has the longest line of customers . . . One of these days I'm going to visit her in Marengo, Illinois and take her silver Audi TT out for a spin . . . <br /><br />The biggest thrill of the weekend: I was interviewed about rug hooking live on WKZE, the local radio station. The woman who interviewed me was named Sally, who hooks rugs herself, and the owner and manager of the station is named Barb -- which is kind of funny, since my sister's name is Barb and my family calls me Sally . . . Anyway -- I'm glad I didn't hear myself, because I was awfully nervous.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtOwwxCZCgQrFz0WaVVvHcVzb15KyI0kKurijyfrMMdC_rNMkSJmfAkMCtr3qkJg4PKsOa_5sd1_jyupzYRHGWQ-1UAQPOr-UMNF3DgxH7ksEcJawcPliVT5Wtz0jxQf67ftmp3hqaAok8/s1600-h/dogtrial.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtOwwxCZCgQrFz0WaVVvHcVzb15KyI0kKurijyfrMMdC_rNMkSJmfAkMCtr3qkJg4PKsOa_5sd1_jyupzYRHGWQ-1UAQPOr-UMNF3DgxH7ksEcJawcPliVT5Wtz0jxQf67ftmp3hqaAok8/s320/dogtrial.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5259696316788264002" /></a><br /><br />We were so busy I didn't get around much. I did step outside to watch the sheepdog trials for awhile. The dogs were absolutely amazing. I checked out a few of the other vendors, too, and bought some yarn for more socks. I wanted to buy a "Llamas for Obama" pin, but never got around to it. . . they were selling like hot cakes.<br /><br />So now it's time to get ready for next year's Festival, to be held on October 17 & 18, 2009. Barb and I already have a theme for our booth and I've started drawing sketches for new rugs . . .

I never kept them when I made them. <br /><br />It has been so beastly this year.....the humidity really does me in. I have Air Conditioning but it's been on so long I feel like I live in a cave. I want to have the windows open, crisp blue skies and goosebumps from that nip in the air.<br /><br />I'm tripping over supplies for new Halloween and Fall and I have a September deadline for new Christmas...I'm starting to panic but I work best under pressure. Sarah and I have shows just about every weekend in October and of course, I have an update on The Primitive Gathering the 15th of August.I will debut some of my 2008 designs so stay tuned............and stay cool!!!<br /><br />BarbHallowed Hill Primitiveshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03954894183514740646noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7995868761361262833.post-47754471620990675972008-07-04T07:53:00.001-07:002008-07-04T07:54:19.579-07:00Happy 4th of July !!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqjijc0aMM_62mvVEmEyz_t4-Sqkq1Lx4vsi11sn_Q7qgGBjcAJwxM639UKoY_90CE9zLYG1UfbllvbItmqTfUZCBjpBFm9IGDqId6jDd7YoBCULBwSRT2iPxn_Ul17bAoRb4GCH7KiCnO/s1600-h/IMG_1496.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqjijc0aMM_62mvVEmEyz_t4-Sqkq1Lx4vsi11sn_Q7qgGBjcAJwxM639UKoY_90CE9zLYG1UfbllvbItmqTfUZCBjpBFm9IGDqId6jDd7YoBCULBwSRT2iPxn_Ul17bAoRb4GCH7KiCnO/s320/IMG_1496.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5219172333888366018" /></a>Hallowed Hill Primitiveshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03954894183514740646noreply@blogger.com5
