New Look for Blog!

Ok, I went to Go Daddy to try to fix the Plesk problem and now my domain name of heislerscreativestitchery.com should send you all here to this blog instead of a page where you choose which of my 2 mirror sites you want to try going to.

Finger's crossed it works! I used to be really good at writing code for web sites and knowing what to do to get everything running correctly but got away from it when yahoo shut down all the geocities sites. I had 4!

If you look to the left you'll see graphics that link to both of the mirror sites. Right now I don't know what's going on at tripod lycos but I haven't been able to access it all day so it's a good thing the webs site is still up. This is why I'm really considering adding pages here with pics of my patterns so you'll see what all I have for sale at etsy and other places on the web.

Keep watching for more updates!

Web sites may be hard to get to...

Ok, here's the problem, My domain is thru GoDaddy cause they offered really good prices and free web sites when all of us left yahoo after they got rid of their free sites.

 Last year GoDaddy gave up free web space and gave their customers 1 year free with Plesk. My year ended on the 11 so I have to make a decision on whether to put the opening page at my webs or tripod site or link the domain to this blog. As always I can't decide so until then www.heislerscreativestitchery.com may not work. Instead try:

http://heislerscreativestitches.webs.com/index.html
or
http://creativestitchery.tripod.com/index.html

Sorry for any probs this causes any of you.

Another New Pattern Up for Sale!

This new pattern was done as an update to my old mermaids and shells pattern. This doll is slightly bigger. Audrina is 16" from the top of her hair to the tips of her tail. The really big change is her hair. It's mohair that's been cut from the skin. I bought mine at Ebay but Etsy as well as other online places sell it. There are a lot of tips and color photos, along with step-by-step instructions and drawings to help you make her. I like her made in the orange batik for a goldfish look.

This is what the clamshell looks like. Fun wire is hand sewn along the edge so it can be shaped. Fun wire is also sewn to the tail for the same reason.

Look for Audrina and her seashell at my Etsy store and at Patternmart as Pdfs and printed patterns. At Ebay I'm only selling printed patterns but would put up a listing for a PDF if asked. At Patternspot only PDFs are available. If you have any questions please contact me thru Etsy or Ebay.

New Crochet Pattern up for Sale!

I know it's been months since I last posted anything. I've had a really bad year so far allergy wise. It seems like I just start to feel better and I get the flu, or a cold, or worse allergy symptoms. Thanks to being so tired from being sick and the meds not much has been happening.

I did do a new crochet patterns for the shamrocks you see in the pic. It's listed at my Etsy store as a PDF file only. I've let the stuff at ebay expire since I'm so brain fogged from meds to trust myself to list and relist there. The shamrock is easy to make and a cute gift to give with a lucky penny in it.Think about making them for shower gifts with a penny in the year of the shower!

Ok, you may wonder why only a PDF version of the pattern? It's because I used a lot of photos and I wanted to keep the price low. To print it I'd have to up the price. You do need to know how to crochet as I don't give those kind of directions.

Next up, the new mermaid pattern. Cover photos have been ordered at Snapfish and received, and the directions just need another edit to check for mistakes.

Oh, and a flower version of the penny holder is coming, too!
