Happy Monday Ya'll!

The big weekend rush is over, I'm pooped, still not unpacked the prims, and kind of still dragging a little!

The sale was good, but not great. I think this economy has a lot to do with the low sales. Some of my vendor friends said the same thing - very low sales. I made about 2/3 what I normally bring in, but you know what? I'm glad I sold what I did! Here are some pictures of the highlights of my booth at the Barnful of Quilts at Fox Farms in Waxhaw, NC.

Enjoy!

The Big Sale Approaches!

All right gentle followers - say some big prayers that I get everything priced, in order and ready to go by this Thursday for the annual Barnful of Quilts and Fiber Arts show in Waxhaw! This is usually my biggest selling weekend for the entire year! Let's just hope that with this economy people are still going to jump on the primitives bandwagon and buy, buy, buy!

As soon as this week is over, I will post a new thanksgiving pattern on my website and I'll post some pictures of the sale here on my blog.

Wish me well and Happy October everyone!

Till next week,

Back In Action!!!!

Hello All! Fall is in the air and I am gearing up for the big fall sale in two weeks and have been in a pricing and finishing up odds and ends frenzy. Also, the new website www.theprimmerchant.weebly.com is up and running. I'm still adding some things, but for the most part is it completely usable now. Also, if you want the September free cross stitch pattern, get over there before Saturday, because the pattern will change for October. Scroll down the home page, look at the bottom on the right side and download the pattern.

Great Recipe for Autumn - Pumpkin Spice Cookies

This recipe is so easy - no one will ever need to know it took only minutes to prepare!

1 package spice cake mix

1 can (15oz) can solid pack pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie mix)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease cookie sheets and set aside.

Combine together the cake mix and pumpkin until well blended. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto the cookie sheets. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool.

This is a Thanksgiving favorite in my house with the grandchildren. For a little added "sweet" add a little vanilla frosting to the cookie tops. Enjoy!

Till next time,

Alisa
