EVIL CAN BE FOUND ANYWHERE

I just recently learned that there is a cancer living and growing in our neighborhood...this cancer is in the form of an evil person that hates cats. This person, if they can correctly be called a "person", sets traps for cats and even innocent baby kittens, luring them thru the fence with baited traps and then disposes of them in some manner. I haven't been able to determine what they do, kill them, or take them somewhere and leave them so they can't find their way home. They claim that they are trying to trap a wild animal that has bothered their garbage cans, but the trap is set fifty feet away from the cans close to the fence that the cats could be lured thru. In the past months I have had a beautiful brown tabby stray come to live with us, he was extremely afraid at first but soon became very lovable and happy with good food and attention, but he didn't want to come inside yet, so he lived on our sheltered porch. One day he was there and suddenly, for no apparent reason, he was nowhere to be found. Now that I have learned of this cat hater, I'm sure he was trapped and disposed of. Just recently, some heartless person, left a precious female with us and she presented us with five adorable babies. One of the babies became my TV watching and bedtime partner. But a few days ago she asked to be allowed to go outside and was never seen again. I realize now that that was a grave mistake, but the yard is fenced and seems a safe place for the cats to get a bit of sunshine, and they loved so much to be given a chance to play in the flowers and watch the butterflies. But no more, everyone has to stay indoors, safe from this cruel, evil cat killer. Their quality of live will not be as good, no sunshine, no flowers to smell and no butterflies to chase, but safe from the evil that lurks outside.

TUCKER

FRINGEY, TATTERED TUNIC

There's nothing better than comfortable clothes...maybe that speaks to my age..but it's hard to look special if clothes are uncomfortable...so, I stitched up this fab tunic from some soft, homespun looking fabric, left the seams raw so they would fringe when washed, and made it extra large so it would fit almost everyone..some loose, some just right, and left it in it's ragged, tattered, shabby state so one can just toss it in the washer on delicate, tumble it dry and pop it on. Looks fab over leggings..or at 31 inches long could be a mini dress. Bust measures 56. See it at sheerfab.etsy.com

Painted Denim Bag

Everyone loves denim, and it’s a great fabric to work with, but sometimes it needs a little jazzing up.  I recycled a pair of jeans into this fab bag with paint, a big floppy painted flower, loop and button closure and shoulder straps.  Check it out at sheerfab.etsy.com

HALLOWEEN IS COMING!

Halloween doesn't have to be all black and orange anymore. I think happy colors will work just as well, so I've added lots of color to my new Halloween sweater with an appliqued girl with multi-color scrap hair. This is a plus size made of fairly large slubby weave acylic and wool yarn that's woven really loose so it's soft and stretchy. A really special Halloween sweater for Trick or Treating. See it at sheerfab.etsy.com.

RECYCLING PROJECT

On a recent thrifting trip, my most favorite thing to do when I have a little time, I found this darling 100 percent pure linen skirt in this great brown fall color. It has panels that give it a flouncy, swingy style with an asymmetrical swirley hemline. The fabric feels so great and the color is perfect for my upstyling with off white vintage lace down the front panel and a cute little lace rose at the waist. I've listed it on etsy.
