Summer Fun is coming to a close.

With the children playing outside or in the next room, Mom and Dad are looking over the new year of school
needs.  Yes, the lists are out and some have already made a dent on them. School's coming fast and the end of  the Summer Fun is getting shorter.  That means that new clothes for school, new shoes, new notebooks and other items must be ready for that first day of the new school year.

We here at Nanny Goat Crafts wish all a new and wonderous school year!  But while you can enjoy the rest of the Summer.  I still have some nice Summer things here in the store.  I have started into making some things for the Fall.  There are the pumpkin caps for everyone and sweat shirts with a Fall look. Tee shirts with the Halloween pumpkin face and black cat.  Baby onesies with a touch of Fall to them are here too.
Bread cloths, table runners and napkins to match.  Washcloths to send back to school with the college group  And much more to look at and use for gifts.  

Happy Auguest to you all!!!!

Hot, hot, hot

Yes, I did say that bad 3 letter word: HOT.
We all might be upset with the heat and the burning sun, but we should not say too much about it.
Reason? Well this Winter we might wish we had some of that heat.  It is a shame that we cant bottle that heat up so we could open it and have it for the Winter's cold.

Nanny Goat and I have been trying to keep cool under the big Hunters fan we have in the shop.  I know it takes the temps down about 20 degrees.  And that is cool enough to start knitting the Fall and Winter items.

At this time I am working on the Fall Pumpkins caps for the whole family.  The orange globs have the stem and the leaves just like the real thing. They come in sizes of Baby, Teen and  Adults. The cost is $8 for each size.  Here my son helps model the Adult size.  He has been seen running for work or to catch a taxi in New York City.  they are made of acrylic yarns and form fitting to the head to keeping in the warmth.

So I do hope we have a great Fall ya all!!!

Summer is upon us

We have you covered for fun things for summer. A lite colored tee with the Pansies and Dragon flies on them is a large size. The wee ones have a juice bib with Mr. Sunshine  that is trimmed in blue and white poka dots. And for the Kidds Clothes there is a train to help you ride along.  These are just a few things that  are fun items for Summer.  I cant wait to go on a picnic!!

Look what I got you Dad, Happy Fathers Day!

I saw this at Nanny Goat Crafts in downtown Frederick Dad.  And it was just your size! Yes, it is a large Dad. And if you want to Dad you can turn it inside out and wear it as a solid color of a dark tan.  It has really neat cars on it you just might remember riding in too!








                                                                                   Then I saw this tee with a picture of George on it and
thought you would like it too! This is a size ex large blue tee and it is a great likeness of George too!  Gee Dad I just didn't know what to do  so I bought you both.  Happy Fathers Day  Daddy!!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY  to all the dads out there!  Remember Fathers Day is this Sunday June 17th.

All I want to do for Fathers Day!

Most of us will go see our Dad.  We will take something for him and we will have dinner.  Then we will take an do something with Dad.  Oh how I wish I could do that with my Dad.  My Dad passed away in 1999.  I miss him so much. I would love to make him a lemon pound cake. Then the kids and I would all pile into the truck and go to Mon and Dads house.  I would help Mom with dinner and we would gather around the table together.  Fathers Day was a relaxed day for him.  But years before he worked at the hospital.  The Doctors would take turns on call for each and every holiday. Once he was retired he would not go out to the hospital as much as he once did.  Instead he would work in the yard and do some rug hooking or he would work on his trains in the basement.  So, this year I will go visit him, but I will only give him a rose.  I miss my Dad very much and he knows I still love him so much.

Are you ready for Summer BBQ's?

Yes are you??  It is getting to be the warmer, wonderful time we all look forward to right after old man Winter gets finished with us.  We have had a few Thunderstorms and a few Gully Washers too! So I would say we are ready here in Frederick.  Summer heat has hit here just like all the states up and down the Eastern Seaboard.  I for one have had the first big glass of iced tea of the season for me.  Here in the store we are trying to get the picnic started. I have been working on a few new items that will show up in the store and then will be placed on here.  I have a new design for a cotton cap for the wee ones and  I am trying to enlarge it for anyone that might like it.  We don't want anyone to get sunburned scalp! We have some things ready and waiting for you here at the store.

These Iced Tea glasses are so sweet with the violets in blue painted on them.  There are 6 for $8.00.  Can be washed by hand because of paint.  Yes hot water won't hurt them.  They are made of strong plastic.









Here is the newer colors of hand knitted wash clothes.  These are the ones that will be useful for a lot more then just your face or body.  I have used these to wash off the dog and to wash down the BBQ grill after use.  I have use them to wash woodwork and walls.  I even use them to dust with.  They can be used on a baby  from top to wiggly toes. I have used them to wash the car too! Shown here it a Bright yellow and a ombre of turquoise, gold, pink and white. And we have a light pink too.  More colors are available just ask.

Some people need to get in touch with me so here is my email addy. If I can be of any help about Nanny Goat Crafts just ask me there:   rebbiesmom@yahoo.com   Thank you.

To All Who Answered The Call

Today is Memorial Day.  I am truely thankful to all the men and women and dogs who have answered the call to duty.  They have given thier all to thier country and flag. Some have given thier lives. Others have given parts of them selves, eyes, arms and legs.  I for one am very thankful to thoes who have. For without them this land would not be free and we would not have our freedom.  My Dad was a Dr. in 1941 and he saw much of our boys on his table.  He once told it that war is pure hell. He was a lucky one he came back.  Many did not make it back.  I this day have been up to see his grave with the bronze plack.  I have given him a new rose many times.  Today a flag should be on his grave. But that flag is flying in the cemantery I am proud of it there.

Again  one BIG  Thank you goes out to all who answered that call and the many calls that have been happening.  THANK YOU FOR MY FREEDOM ALL OF YOU!!!
