How did primitive potters harvest clay? People have been making pottery for millennia, and convenient hobby shops have only been a thing for a few decades at best. Before that, people harvested their own clay
It seems that every person, at some point in their life, wants to go ‘back to basics.’ To something more simple, more rugged. While most people don’t necessarily want to go back to being a nomadic hunter/gatherer, there is something to be said about the ability to make what you need to survive. There are […]

***Set of 2 Acorns***- Buy as many as you like but this listing is for TWO acorn. These are one of my favorites. They are hand-stitched from fall homespun fabrics, cotton fabrics, autumn prints and have a real wood stem. They make a perfect bowl filler or place on a napkin with your silverware for your Fall meal as a dinner conversation piece and let's not forget about our Thanksgiving table. They look amazing in a Mason or Ball jar or on your favorite autumn plate. They measure 2x1 with no two alike.
Back in 2016...seems like yesterday...i posted a free tutorial 'how to Make Primitive Sunflowers' on Craftsy. Remember Craftsy? If you remember...Craftsy was taken over by the new and 'improved' (or so they inferred) Bluprint owned by NBC Universal. Many of the Craftsy community was not impressed and if you had a Craftsy Pattern Store it was a wonderful place to share free downloads and sell patterns, but unfortunately not the case with Bluprint. Once Bluprint took over, i received notice that most of the content in my Craftsy Pattern Store was going away...and to top if off (and ticked me off) the blog posts I wrote for Craftsy were completely redone in Bluprint fashion. My name remained, but the posts were altered and other names were added as publishers. These were my submitted ideas, written and photographed posts and welcomed by Craftsy. Craftsy also had editors to critique and edit my posts beforehand, which i welcomed. Hum...i'm sure in some small print, I gave all my rights away when i wrote the posts, but it did leave a yuk feeling. Bluprint announced recently that TN Marketing purchased Bluprint's assets and it looks like 'Craftsy' will be returning in September. We'll see what that looks like. So, what prompted me to spew all of this? LOL I was contacted by Donna today asking where she could find my primitive sunflower free download. I went to Bluprint and there was the listing for my Tea Stained Sunflower tutorial, but no option to download it. So i decided it was high time to take back my content and post it on my own blog. You'll find the instructions after all these fun Fall pictures. PieBird Hot Pad with Primitive Sunflowers Aren't those primitive sunflowers great? Below is my PieBird runner pattern found on Etsy, it includes the hot pad pattern shown below the runner. Pattern is available instantly or mailed copy...in case you wondered. LOl. oh those legs... Finally...the instructions for Tea Stained Sunflowers and how to print just the instructions using the Printfriendly button below. Thanks so much for stopping by!! Please come back again. For more current updates, visit my Instagram site @laughyourselfintostitches How to use Print Friendly** If you would like to use the green 'print friendly' button, i recommend clicking on the Post Title first (so you only print the post you want...and not the entire blog). Once the print friendly option is open on your screen, the post can be printed in a number of pages. You can select just the pages you wish to print. Page numbers will be listed at the bottom of each page. You'll want to select 'All' or 'Custom'. Only want to print one page?...click 'Custom' and select the desired page number... example: only want to print page 3? You'll want to enter 3-3. Want to print pages 3-6? The enter 3-6, etc..
