Who Turnned on Summer!!

Ah yes as the rain stopped the heat became noticeable.  Spring was rained out and when we thought we could have some Spring someone turned on the Summertime heat.  In the past few days the temperature has gone up and up. Watering has become the early morring chore.  Oh and please do keep cold water with you as you do your everyday work.

I was going to work in the sewing room but it has become so hot in there that the machine wont run right.  So  I am guessing I will be working in the front part of the store today. If you don't see many goodies in the window right now it is because the sun has been bad to the goodies that we had in the windows.  I hate to say there has been a few goodies that has become sun bleached. SO they were removed and will be given to the church for yard sale.

***** Oh yes Yard Sale on June 18 at the Ruritan Club on Crum Rd in Mt. Pleasant from 8 am to 3 pm.  Bake table and some crafts and food will be big hits for this Annual Yard Sale.  In the Fall around November they, Mt Zion church puts on a Craft Show and food sale there again. *******

Work is to be in the store now during Summer from 10 to 4 Tues thru Sat.  We are not AC ed and the big fan  will keep us cool at this time.  We will be having a few days that we will be closed for work in the store and in the house.  We are trying to make it all the better for us all.   Thank you.

Have a great week and stay cool as best as you can.

Spring got raiinned out!

Spring has had alot of rain.  True it is good for the new gardens but not all at once.  My peas say thank you so much.  Lettuces says  please let the sun shine. I have tomatoes that are over 2 foot high and they are blooming.

The store has some new Ideas and new items too.  Clothes are starting to show up in the window and on our racks.  The lovely items are hand made or worked up tees with counted cross stitch on them. In the weeks to come Nanny will be adding alot more new things to our sections of the store.  Hopefully we will add more home made clothes for everyone.  Oh yes, we may even add a section of items for reenactors.  But, that will be in the future.  Baby and adult are the main people we are building up.  The house hold is the stage we are working on now.  So be on the lookout for all the new things.

We have added already to our many different sections of Nanny the"Nanny;s Mending Basket".  This is were we can and will repair most items you bring in with a problem.  If we cant I sure know alot of other people who would be willing to help.

So if it is going to rain like it has then we will be busy inside.  Then when the weather is nicer you just might find us out in front of the house here sitting under an umbrella.  Come join us with knitting or sewing out on the sidewalk.  We don't mind the company at all.

Please have a great sun shining day!

Easter is here.

With Joy in My heart I look forward to Easter.   Easter is very important to all who believe.
Some many will be awaiting the Easter bunny to hop into their house to give the Easter Baskets.
Sometimes he waits till after church to come to your house.  Then sometimes he comes before.
But when ever he comes there is always such fun and enjoyment for the children.  I hope that after
or before those of you who can and wish to go to church.  Because He is the reason for Easter. 
Remember He has risen.

I wish all who read this blog a very Happy and joyous Easter Day!

We are moveing things around in the store.

Oh yes, with the rains of Spring comes Spring clean up.  With it raining outside one can get busy inside.  I have put that last hint of Winter away and started with more room in the store.  We now have the baby clothes on a rack. They are in the side of that big front window.  With the new designs and the new sizes we have I had to get them where you could take a gander.  We have add a rack beside the goodies for babies that will hold the adult sizes of their goodies.  We have tees and a few vests. But all is now in that front window awaiting your investigations.
The store is due for more moveing around inside and things will be easier to get to soon.  With Easter coming we needed this and I hope that all will be brighter. 

Happy Easter to all.

Easter is acoming!

The Weather has caused people to get out and start shopping for Easter goodies. 
 I have started the Kidds Clothes back up in my store for all of you who are waiting for our next addition to the Nanny Goat Crafts.  This is the next sizeing from 3T to 6X.  Our Youth have not been forgotten they are the next size to come in the store.  So if you have any suggestions for the items you would like to see come in and tell me.
 We now have new designs on red, blue, green, purple and pink tees for the 3T to 6-8sized child. Trains, boats, planes, dogs and ducks. There are a few sweat shirts here too.  Onesies have the Easter designs with rabbits and ducks.
 Boarded towels and fingertip towels have a few new designs on them. Breadcloths have a touch of Spring on them. Washcloths are now in for the Spring renewl of the bathroom or kitchen.
 So do come in and see what has been made up for the Spring season. Things are a hopping in downtown Frederick, Maryland.

We are having troubles get Spring

Hello friends. Spring is not quite here yet.  But the rains are.  I was awaken this morring by the heavy down pours we are having here. Our local river and streams are way out of their banks. So I will say please be very careful driving this morring. 

With all this rain the gardeners are getting their hip boots out and getting  out to see if they still have a garden to plant once the seed orders get here.  I am hoping that we will be able to see the green on St. Patricks Day.   We have some cutes towels and washcloths that be wearing the green.  Then there is the Easter bunny hoping that he will be able to visit without leaving a trail. But we know here that he has already visited us. We have tees and sweatshirts that wear Easter motifs. There are bread cloths and towels and baby onesies that have bunnies on them. Chicks and bunnies are the designs for this season on many a goodie in the store.

For Summer this year we hope to have sun dresses for both children and  ladies. We may even have pull on shorts for the boys in the family too.  Later this year we hope that we will be adding a new line to our company. So be on the look out for it to come sometime around June.

But in the meantime drop in and chat with me at the store and let me know what you are looking for. I will try and work it into our store for you if I can.  See you here soon!

Old Man Winter wont leave

Yes, I know,  I have not been able to say it enough but, I want Spring to come to Frederick!! So what are we to get tonight??  Well they are calling for snow. Yes up to 4 to 8" of that stuff.  So I will have to unpack the winter hats, scarfs and mittens, for the last time I hope, tonight for tomorrow. 

I have seeds ready for the first time I can plant after the last frost.  I have tomato plants poking up in peat pellets.  I have been working on the fabric in the store.  I am getting things ready for the changes in the room where my store is. I have started the new things for the wee ones in baby onesies with the circus in mind.  Elephants, bears, lions, and tigers.  Oh my! Then I have a few onesies with gardening ideas on them.  Found some great new fabric with little girls in mind.  Little sun dresses and shorts and tops all done in calico of purple and yellow flowers. Oh so sweet!

Hopefully there will be a few new lines for the company.  A line of ladies clothes and men's too.  These will be easy wear and not something for evening or dressy times.  I am in hopes that we will be able to add these lines this year.  So be on the look out for them sometime around July.

But for now we will be adding more and more goodies for the Spring and early Summer time.  I sure hope that the ground hog wasnt  given a brib!  LOL
