Pinewood Derby

Look at my proud little boy and his cardial car. He was beaming when they called his name. The Pinewood Derby is for cubscouts. Its an annual event where the kid and parents make a car from a block of wood. Ty is an avid baseball and cardinal fan so the cardinal car was a must for him. He is even called cardinal boy in the town we live in because that is about all he wears is cardinal gear!!!!

Its been A While - New Happenings at the Palace!!!

Boy has it been crazy. The holiday season has come and gone and I have been busier than ever. I am working on a few new black doll patterns, hope to have them ready soon. They will be several patterns offered for the same doll. I'll post a pic for a sneak peak. Great way to save $$$. Im working on Primitive tips and Techiques for a givaway prize. The coolest news is that I will have a web site soon. It will be a mini store to start out with. I cant wait to get it going although it is a bit of work. When it is finished it will be Primitivpalace.com.
