Primitives Really Make you feel good!

Yes I have been really busy making my Fall items check out my picture trail to see what is available. I am also proud to say that I have won 1st place and Best in Show for our County Fair's Scarecrow Contest! WooHoo! Check out the pic! Pattern is from Lucy's Lazy Day Primitives for the small but i had to enlarge the pattern for the large scarecrow.  I was only going to enter the large scarecorw but my youngest son encouraged me to enter both and go with the fair theme "Proud of our Heritage" and yes then and there my wheels were turning! Got the Crock, cabbage cutter and Jar of sauerkraut that we made, a watering can and rake. My theory of the idea was the father teaching the son how to plant and grow the cabbage and then make it into sauerkraut! wha la! Didn't really expect to win cause not everyone is into the prims but took a shot. I did what I like instead of thinking what someone else would be looking for. Needless to say when I went to the fair and looked around the corner to go and see the scarecrows and saw the sign for best in show was displayed at "MY" Scarecrow. I was overwhelmed! I had tears! My son just laughs and says your such a sap!
