Trying a new Craft for a new year.

Time has gotten away from me!  Here it is the end of the first month for 2013 and I have not been writing to all of you who ready my notes on here.

I have just started a new crafting idea for the shop.  I will quilt tee shirts in to bed covers for anyone who wants me to.  The cost is fair and you will need to tell me what size you would want. Send me a deposit and the tees that you would want in the quilt.  Then you need to tell me what color you would want to have on the back of that quilt. The sizes are D, Q and K.  The first deposit will be $75 and that will be a down payment on said quilt. Once finished I will send you a bill for time and fabric and batting. Of course minis the down payment.  That is for a tee shirt quilt.

I have been told that I should even make a baby/youth quilt for children made of their baby clothes. There again it would be what size: Crib or Twin. The color for the backing which you might want to match to a color in the clothes you will send.  The deposit there will be $ 50. and that too will be taken off the finished bill.

Shipping will be different with every quilt so that will go on to the bill.

Happy New Year!!!

Well time is running out for old Father Time of 2012.  I want to wish everyone a very Happy New Year!!

May the year 2013 bring us all happiness  and prosperity.

1 Day and counting

Ah yes there is one day before Santa comes in form the cold here in Frederick.  Santa will find that we have some mighty good cookies here for him.  We will have a glass of Eggnog for him too!  I have been very slow in baking cookies this year, but I worked on them today and made Candy Cane and oatmeal cho. chip cookies and a Snow Flake cake.

The Nanny Goat Crafts Store closed down tonight in that it will be Christmas Eve tomarrow and I have never been open on that day for over 13 years.  It became a tradition to not be open on Christmas Eve while my Mom and Dad were ill. After that I kept it in honnor of them.  I love Christmas and try and have the giving spirit all year thru.

Please have a wonderful, fun filled family Holiday!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!

Santa's very busy.

Santa has been very busy this year. He has been walking in downtown Frederick. Getting lunch at a few of the restaurants.  Now he is headed back up the the North pole.  He has only one more week to finish all the things that the Elves have been working on.  Mrs Santa is also busy.  She has been wrapping up a storm of gifts for all the good little boys and girls.  She has also been baking sugar cookies and gingerbread houses and making hot cocoa for the elves.  When Santa gets back up there  everyone will be in high gear to finish all the work. The sleigh and the reindeer will be fed and readied for that BIG NIGHT!  Then Santa will be here so fast that we will be not able to see him. Like a blink of the eye he will have been in our house and left the gifts under the tree. Then he will be gone like a snow flake blown in the wind.

So put the stockings up and ready the tree for Santa will soon be here everybody.

Christmas wishes

Christmas is the right word for this time of year.  It is because it is the birthday of the Dear Christ child.  We who are not afraid to say "Merry Christmas" say it with love in our hearts for Him.  I for one will continue to say that every time someone comes in the store or leaves.   So from little old "Nanny Goat" me  to all of you

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Santa has been seen shopping

Now that  Tom Turkey has been here and he is now happy to have won the race. We now can   start working off that feast by putting up the tree and the lights inside  and outside of the house.  Santa is sad he didn't make it to be in front in November. But, he still has his own date here in December.  The tree is up and ready. I have been working on some new stockings for the blue jeans wearers in the family.  Then there is the cross stitched napkins, bread cloths and of course the towels.  Aprons and many other goodies are here in the store.  First night will be this coming Saturday the 1 st of December.  I have already seem some elves and I think I saw Santa at the  local WalMart.  He was looking at the trees and shaking his head.  I think Santa loves a real tree! But we now can start working up those lists and the wrapping of said goodies.
I have a few cookies to bake and a few dog treats to make too.  All of which can be bought in the Nanny Goat Crafts store on 2nd Street in down town Frederick.   Happy Shopping you have 29 days to go.

Tis the season to be Thankful!!

Yes, Tom has won and he is very thankful that everyone has remembered to have Thanksgiving before Santa.

I have had this store open on Sundays during Holidays for the past 26 years.  Each year I have found that I am truly thankful to all the wonderful people who come and visit, revisit or just fond us. Each person that comes in has always giving me something in return.  Some give me a smile, a grin, a story or just the shear pleasure of coming in and seeing what I have to offer.  They also give me ideas for new things to have for next year or something I can do for them now. I love each visit and it gives me great joy to see what my things can give each of them.  So I say I have many friends and I am given many gifts of joy each and every day here at Nanny Goat Crafts.  I am truly thankful to all who have come in and spent some time here.


HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!!!
