Wondering and a freebie

Just wondering if anyone is enjoying Spring Fantasy? Whatever, I do have more today. Fortunately, I had finished today's freebie before I went out. Coming home from shopping yesterday, I realized that the papers I had in the passenger seat up front were likely to get wrinkled if I left them where they were. So I snagged that bag while at a stoplight and reached behind me to lay it on the back seat. Almost screamed as pain ripped through my right shoulder and neck. I guess I pulled a muscle (funny, used to be able to do that move). By the time I got home, I had pain in neck, shoulder, arm and down the upper part of my back. Hit the Tylenol immediately but it was difficult getting to sleep last night and pain is still sticking around today.

Anyway, here is today's zip of Spring Fantasy:

Have something ready to put up for tomorrow but Sunday I will be off. Hugs!

On my way out but first a freebie

I'm trying to finish up a little project for my friend, Liv's (Country Liv's Graphics), great-grand-daughter who is expected next month. Last night I was sewing the pieces of the crocheted bunny lovey together when my plastic yarn needle broke so I'm heading out to buy more yarn needles. Hope to find some metal ones this time. Here is your freebie of Spring Fantasy today:

I know, you're still saying where's the fantasy in this? Some places already have sunshine and flowers of spring and that's a natural phenomenon. Just wait. BTW I also included a banner without the letters for spring in case you have another use for it. Hugs!

Mid-week and more of Spring Fantasy

Tuesday was gone almost before I knew it! We had arranged to meet our youngest son, Eric, and his wife, Tanya and some of husband's former co-workers at Hooter's for all-you-can eat chicken wings. Not really my thing, but I went along. We left early so we could pick up one of hubby's former riders (hubby drove for local transit 42 years) at his job. We were about 15 minutes early to pick up the young man and I spotted a Hancock Fabrics in the same shopping center. Sadly, Hancock filed bankruptcy and is in the process of closing all stores. I needed a bag of stuffing to complete a baby project and if I could get it for less, so much the better. I browsed and got the stuffing plus a few odds and ends. At Hooters I asked our DIL to sit next to me so we could get better acquainted. The co-workers came in late, after we were finished with our dinners, but we stuck around to visit. Got home and both of us pretty much crashed in front of the TV.

Update on piracy issue. Pat determined that one of the people selling her products was someone she had been communicating with off and on for a couple of years. She closed the complaint after talking with the store, deciding to give benefit of doubt to the "designer." She could have misunderstood the statement on the web site. Since this discovery, Pat has updated website information to indicate that none of her free images can be claimed as one's own and cannot be sold as is. Hope that will keep others from taking advantage.

Running Late with Monday Freebie

Ah heck - UNC lost to Villanova (I also follow them) for the basketball championship. I was watching and then came in to put up the Monday freebie but got distracted. Had too many tabs open from earlier and had to close some. Anyway, here is the first of Spring Fantasy:

Can't really tell much from a couple of papers and one bow, can you? Hang in there, it will get better.

I'll get tomorrow's freebie up early because in the afternoon/evening we are going to meet youngest son and his wife and some of husband's former co-workers for chicken wings. Well, the guys are going for all-you-can-eat chicken wings. DIL, Tanya, plans on having shrimp. Haven't decided if I want boneless wings or shrimp. We're going to Hooters, which isn't one of my favorites but sometimes the guys get to choose and I'll be a good sport about it.

Coming soon - new freebie kit

Please bear with me. I'm working on a new free kit for you. Calling it Spring Fantasy. I hope you will find it charming. Included will be some lovely fantasy figures, created by a sweet and generous artist, Pat, of Pann's Place. I have been "talking" via internet to Pat for several days now after discovering that at least two so-called designers have been selling the Poser figures Pat generously gives away as their own creations! I was browsing a site that specializes in card making materials and some scrapping and my attention was grabbed when I spotted a set of Poser figures that looked just like the ones Pat had recently created. I was shocked by how similar these appeared, so I pulled up another window and compared the Poser tubes that were being sold with the one's on Pat's website. They were identical! While Pat sells a few sets, she mostly gives away her creations and I knew she didn't sell under a "re-sell" license. That is, you can't buy or take her free Posers and resell them as is. So I contacted her and also sent an alert to the store's owner. After looking into it, Pat found that not only was the designer I'd pointed out selling Pat's Posers - all the items she was selling and claiming to be her own were Pat's! Looking further, she found another person also selling her creations. The store wouldn't take a piracy complaint from a 3rd party (me) and I do understand that. I forwarded the information they gave me to Pat and she has written to the store with details and links to her site to show exactly what she was talking about. I'm now hoping to hear from her that these people have been forced to remove the pirated products. Isn't it sad that someone so kind and generous is being taken advantage of so?

I think I had mentioned that I was going out of town Saturday? My friend, Mary, had bought me a ticket to go to a concert put on by Keith Henderson who does Elvis tributes. Now my mother was a bigger Elvis fan than I am, but who doesn't love the King of Rock 'n Roll? We were running a little late after waiting for one of our party and then having to deal with some heavy rain and bad traffic. When we walked in, Keith was doing gospel in Elvis style. He has a wonderful voice and grew up loving Elvis and singing along to his music. He's been doing these tributes since 1978 when there were only about 5 people doing such and he has quite a following. The second half of the show was pure Elvis rock. Keith changed into a black and gold outfit of the type the King used to wear and put on quite a show, pulling members of the audience in for hugs (with scarves ala Elvis), dancing and singing. Really quite fun. To learn more check out his website: http://keithillusions.com/

We stopped for dinner at Crackerbarrel. Once home, I relaxed on the sofa to watch basketball. So relaxed, in fact, I fell asleep and hubby couldn't wake me up. Sweetie left a light on for me and about an hour or so later, I made my way to bed. Sunday I just relaxed and visited with my Dad.

Now here is the swatch I'm, working from for Spring Fantasy:

I will put some up tonight but first I'm going to have the dinner hubby prepared.

New Month so set your goals!

It's April already! No foolin' - ok, I'm no good with jokes; that's my husband's territory. Anyway, we are about to go for a visit with grand-daughter, Larkin, and hope to snag a few pics. Today I have your monthly goal set

Can't tell you what is coming next because I'm playing with 3 different ideas. Maybe by this evening I will have decided and be able to offer a glimpse. Hugs!
