Fern Dishcloth in Peacock Blue

May 2010’s sale includes three pages of ready-made items, most of which are knit and crochet dishcloths and a variety of plastic bag holders!

I still have about a dozen dishcloths to add to the sale,  a couple more bag holders, and as soon as I finish a few more dish towel dresses, I’ll be adding them too!

Kwanso Daylilies

God has once again blessed my Kwanso daylilies in great abundance!

As soon as I figure out a shipping weight, or how many I can ship at one pound, I will be listing them!

All my live flowers are healthy and ship Priority Mail.

I will also be listing Lamb’s Ear and possibly Obedient Plant (with the lavender color bloom).

Unfortunately, I cannot ship flowers/plants to California or Hawaii due to state restrictions.

Butterfly Theme Baby Burp Cloth

We’ll soon be adding rag edge baby burp cloths in both girl and boy themes, along with matching receiving blankets!

These burp cloths are approx 18″ x 8½” before laundering, and are made of soft flannel. They also have a 100% cotton batting in between the flannel layers to make them even more absorbent!

Most will have a print, such as butterflies, camo/frogs, or monkeys on one side, and a color-coordinated solid color flannel on the reverse side.

Pictured is the butterfly theme, which has a nice gold flannel on the reverse.

Crazy Lace Agate and Pearl Necklace by Roberta Barclay

Handmaid Home is proud to announce the addition of a new vendor, Roberta Barclay!

Roberta has been making one of a kind, hand crafted jewelry since 1994. Most of her jewelry is made with Natural Pearls and Authentic Gemstones, although she also uses Lampwork Beads, Glass, and CZ beads on some items. It appears there’s something for everyone, so watch for her jewelry to become available soon!

These bag holders are similar in size to our current ones, with a little longer ruffle. Most are 23″ x 22″ diameter, or 23″ x 11″ when laid flat.

Here are some fabric closeups:

As for our hand knit dishcloths, the 8″ Round moved up into the top three, displacing the 9″ Ball Band Dishcloth by a nice quantity.

Our Hand Knit Dishcloth I, in the “Grunge Grubber” style, still wins out as number one and remains in the Top Three another year.

Our number three “top seller” is the Knit Fern pattern, which was also a top three seller for 2008.
