So happy to be back!!! I have much news to share =]

Hello Friends!!

OMGoodness, it's been a while since I've updated my blog.  I have so much to tell, I'm not sure where to begin - LOL!  So, I guess I'll start with the most recent.  Queenofallcrafts is now on Facebook!  Come join the fun, I've been sharing, free pattern links (mostly knit & crochet, but there will be all sorts of fun crafts!), lots of humor, and a few "slow cook" recipes - my favorite!  If you scroll down far enough, you might even see an OOOOOOOLD pic of me.  hehe  (I'm blushing!)

OK, I hope to see you all there!  Just go to www.Facebook.com/Queenofallcrafts and hit the "Like" button.  =] 

Now for the really good stuff!  Whew... I need to familiarize myself again with this blog, so that I can share with you all, some of my newly found "treasures!"  Recently, I was given the opportunity to purchase a large needlework collection (before the auction!!  YES!).  And, I am just so proud to say... we were able to agree on price.... and I bought the entire ROOM!!  It was a REALLY good day.  And I met two lovely ladies (who will be included on my Christmas card list for the rest of my life!), they were just so thrilled that they found me on eBay, and that their mother's needlework collection would be going directly to homes that would love and cherish her items.  Saying "this is what she would have wanted".  Isn't that fabulous!?  The price we agreed on was fair, and it's my LARGEST investment year to date!!!  Just, to give you an idea... it took my husband and I, TWO car loads to bring it all home.  Mostly needlepoint canvases and tapestry yarns GALORE!  And 100's of mostly knit and crochet patterns, books, and magazines (6 large boxes!).  But, also lots of quilting and cross stitch!!  There WAS numerous kits, but I had to sell them right away so I could send her a check for the difference because I didn't bring enough money! 

Would anyone like to see some photos of this amazing collection?

Recently listed needlework!!

Wow!  These are so pretty!  Take a look at what I recently listed on eBay for my friend Linda.  She's been cross stitching for over 20 years!  Here lately she's been stitching up a bunch of beautiful breadcloths.  For a better look, please visit my eBay store at:  www.stores.eBay.com/queenofallcrafts =]

Just listed... FINISHED CROSS STITCH CHRISTMAS STOCKINGS!

OMGosh.... these stockings are absolutely gorgeous!  I am selling these for my new customer (SH) which stands for Stephanie's Heirlooms.  Maybe some of you recognize these??  They are all from the covers of Cross Stitch & Country Crafts magazines back in the 80's.  Stephanie has been stitching for over 40 years, her work is perfect!  I would definitely classify her as a "Professional Needleworker" - LOL!

see them here www.stores.ebay.com/QueenOfAllCrafts

AND... She has also given me 2 beautiful "Lavender & Lace" angels - you have GOT to check them out!

ALL MOM'S PATTERN ARE NOW AVAILABLE IN "PDF" FORMAT!!!! =]

Yeah!  I figured out how to put all mom's wonderful knit & crochet pattern leaflets into a "PDF" file format.  2 are finished (Amazing Star Afghans, and Mile-A-Minute Baby Set), and I have a bunch more to do.

Pick-out your favorites - and send me an email with the titles of the one's you'd like to purchase... and I will send you an invoice through PayPal (Don't worry, I accept personal checks and money orders too!)  When it is paid... I will email you your new PDF patterns!

So where can you view all these wonderful patterns?

Guess what???

I am so excited to share with everyone that I recently opened up a shop of Etsy!  YAY!  I kept the same name "QueenOfAllCrafts" - figured that would be easiest.  And, everyone would know it's "ME"

There's a link at the top right-hand corner of my blog... or you can find it here... www.etsy.com/shop/QueenOfAllCrafts

Not ALL my customers I realize are "eBayers" so I'm thrilled that I can also offer mom's knit & crochet patterns (along with other fun needlework) BESIDES eBay.

Have a wonderful day everyone.
