These look so good and are very reasonably priced. There is a lot of work goes into keeping the goats and hand making soap. The toiletries found in the shops contain so many nasty and dangerous chemicals. Wish we were closer Belle - I'd be buying in bulk.

Blog giveaway

Hi there, I've temporarily suspended Abigail's blog give away as I cannot seem to enable the comments function on her blog. I've done everything and admit defeat! Will run it again when CJ is done with Mr Linky.

Cards

My mum made these cards for my store. They are £1.20 each and you can buy one along with your order. I will have more soon. If you can't see the pictures, click on the x in the top right corner.

Thank you for visiting my store.

Scarves

The wool from England arrived the other day. Me and my mum have knitted scarves recently, starting on another one. There is lots of multi-colors in one ball. The scarfs in the photo above actually knit up like this. Some are just one color. We have two toddler scarves and five big kids/adult ones for sale. Here are what they look like.

We also have an big kids/adults and toddler scarf knitted in the blue green wool in my other post and a toddler one in a very soft deep pink as shown here.

Note by Deb - oh dear! I'm on the lookout for adult models. Friends beware!

New book

This is Abigail's mum just popping in to let you know that we have a new book in the store from Vision Forum USA. I was sending off for one for Abigail after it was recommended to me by a good friend, and got some extras to make it worthwhile postage wise.

Here is what they say about it.

This book is not another Christian-teenage-girl “survival guide.” So Much More shows how Christian girls can wage war with the world and win. The Botkin sisters focus on how young women can rise above their God-hating culture and change it for the better.

Today, countless young ladies face difficult problems and challenging questions. While many long for godly purpose in their lives, their bewilderment mounts when they observe broken homes, distant fathers, overwhelmed mothers, degrading college courses, and a lack of spiritual guidance — both at home and at church. As hope for security and stability fades, it is no wonder that many young ladies feel orphaned, unprotected, and without hope for their futures.

Within the pages of this book, discover practical, biblical solutions for the young woman who wants to do so much more than just “survive” in a savagely feministic, anti-Christian culture. Find the answers a girl is not likely to get from her church, her peers, or her culture.

I'm off to grab a cuppa and enjoy the read. More soon ...

Musical pillows

Abigail has asked me to list these for her, so here goes. I sliced my finger on a food processor blade today so the old typing is difficult.

Here we have lullaby cushions which if preferred, can be supplied with ribbon attached to hang on a wall or cot. Various ribbon is available including birth celebration, as seen here. There are three different tunes to chose from although I'm not sure offhand what they are. I'll let missy elaborate. The one here plays 'Sleep baby sleep'.

Filling is corn husk which is bagged and sold specifically for soft toy fill although if preferred, a synthetic wadding can be used. Fabric is 100% patchwork cotton.

I've done the maths and price is coming in at £10.00 which gives her £2.00 per cushion. If you would like a childs initial done, just ask. We enjoy a challenge! Other fabric combinations include bright red, white and navy blue and pastel pinks.
My finger tells me that's all for now. I don't have the patience for typing with one digit.

Thank you for checking in.
