Americana teddy and flag on a painted grapevine wreath. This design is on a 12" bracket plaque. Not from the USA? Just paint the flag for your country, and the teddy's hat & bowtie in coordinating colors. Surface available from CD Wood. I’ve used DecoArt Americana Acrylics to paint this design.
BEST tiny old primitive doll. 1910s-1930s era. Small desirable size. Darling adorable little girl printed lithograph doll. She is the REAL deal! Not a repro. I had found the doll first. Later on I found the perfect vintage handmade doll dress. It too, is old/antique/vintage. Unsure of exact age. You can see it doesn't fit her perfectly, but it looks like the two always belonged together. I had added some old pins in the back to hold the dress together. I also added a small, early silk flag. No odors. Non-smoking home. She has some red staining to the bottom of her feet. (See pic.) Measures about 7" h. No rips or tears. Thanks for looking!

The day of the Antiques & Primitives Goods Show was picture perfect, warm, blue skies, low humidity, what more could one ask for? It was just a beautiful day to scout around for the best antiques and primitives. I had the opportunity to help my good friend Maria in her booth “Primitives by Maria” Penny also came down from Maine to help out in Maria’s booth. I must say all 3 of us had a good time during the 2 days that we spent at the Walker Homestead. Penny has a shop in Mechanic Falls, ME called The Falls Country Gift Shoppe http://fallsprimitives.blogspot.com/ If you’re on facebook she also has a fan page under the same name. In Brookline, NH (right over the MA border) you can visit Maria & John over at Country Culture http://www.countrycultureonline.com/ I’m going to try to include as many links as I can in the following pictures. I’ll start by showing Maria’s booth. It was all done up in an Americana theme. Look how adorable these children are all dressed up in their prairie dresses! Kris Casucci from the Walker Homestead & Maria Doreen & her husband are all dressed up for the occasion! Dirk Dishop from the “Early Homestead Woodshop” had some nice pieces of his handcrafted reproduction furniture and his now infamous cement sculpture pieces. Wow! he was very busy selling out of these pieces! http://www.picturetrail.com/earlyhomesteadwoodshop In Dirks’ booth were some of Rachel Engel’s wonderful and unique folk art dolls “Too Far Gone Primitives” http://www.picturetrail.com/toofargoneprimitives This piece on the door came home with me. One of Rachel’s pieces is headed off with a happy customer! Beautiful redware and antiques everywhere you looked! Pssst…a little birdie told me Kris from the Walker Homestead bought this box with the same name on it, how fitting! A local Brookfield shop “Hometown Antiques” http://www.hometownantiqueswb.com/ Love this display… Milltown Primitives won best booth! Lots of eye candy here! http://www.milltownprimitivesshop.com/ Some good food right off of the grill… and some down home good ole music! Phillis Leck from the “Village Weaver” http://www.scottishwroughtiron.com/ When I see Phillis in this picture, I feel like I’ve taken a step back in time. I like the message on these stacking boxes. “Give Thanks” I’m very thankful for my family & friends ****** The next show will be in September, start planning your trip now, fall in New England is the best time to visit! http://www.walkerhomestead.com/ Blessings, Bonnie

A very patriotic dress to celebrate the Fourth of July! This dress starts with a long tail cast on of 96 stitches using the bright blue yarn. I knit two more rows on straight needles to create a two row garter stitch hem. Next, I switched to 12 inch circular needles to begin knitting in the round with the red and white yarns. For the first red and white row, I alternately knit 2 white, 2 red. For the next 6 rows, I purled 2 white and knit 2 red. This gave the colors a nice pop and pretty texture. I finished the dress following the chart on the left. I followed my usual modifications found here and knit with the navy through row 28 to give the cap sleeves a blue edge. I alternated red and white yarn every two rows to finish the bodice. I think the variegated yarns I used gave this dress a special look…a bit more dimension. However, solid colors would work too. Knit picks palette in Jay, Serrano, Cyan and white would be perfect.
