Came across a blog that had a great idea- Freeze Pop Holders! http://terelauritsen.blogspot.com/2010/05/freeze-pop-holders.html

Which was featured on this blog link: http://www.bystephanielynn.com/2010/04/freeze-pop-holders-keep-those-little.html

What a great idea for cold little fingers!

I'm back at the Idaho Falls Farmer's Market this summer (there's a map a few posts down from this one), every Saturday from 9-1. It might still be a little chilly outside but it's perfect weather for shopping out of doors. Then you can go home and wrap up in some fleece before summer really hits us... if it ever does :).

I have some new faces, if they aren't already sold by the time this is posted. A cute little bunny with wiskers & fluffy tail...

Or how about this funky print on my elephant (a favorite). It's perfect for that energenic little one, or even a teen!

Looking forward to seeing you at the Market through October. Plan ahead for Christmas or suprise someone with a Fuzzy Wuzzie creation for their birthday or a baby shower. I also specialize in weighted products for people with Autism.

Come check out my booth!

Some Actual Fuzzie Wuzzies

Polka Dot Elephant--- So Cute, this picture doesn't do it justice! It is about the same size as the Lady Bug below that I put my 4 and 1 year old on for size reference. Sorry about the pink and red clashing- I didn't plan out this photo shoot much.

I just love her animal shapes. I have seen fish, hippo, cows, whatever she comes up with!

Here is a regular blanket, double sided with minky fleece (I hope that is correct) on the outside. Very snugly and warm!

For the Astronaut/ Star Wars kid, (I got one of those) this one has pale green minky fleece inside and regular printed fleece on the 0utside. These are just a few samples. She is constantly whipping up creations, which of course vary with the variety of fleece available, and I assure you, is the good stuff.

My Neighbor the Fleece Lady

2008-12-16T10:08:00.000-08:00

I have a neighbor, and you may be thinking, "Wait, I thought this was the fleece ladie's blog?" and it will be, but she doesn't know about it yet; anyway, this neighbor is the Fleece Queen! Her front room/sewing room is stacked with it. I often see her in front of her window sewing away. She makes warm, fuzzy, regular fleece blankets, minky fleece blankets, animal shapes : Hippos, cows, fish, elephants, lady bugs- not an animal, but in the animal kingdom. She makes neck pillows and baby pillows, as well as little softies and activity mats. Every year she thinks of something new. I probably don't even have it all on here, because I don't think I can keep up with her ideas!

She sells her fleece in the summer at the open market here in Idaho Falls, and does craft fairs. But she also gives a lot of it to humanitarian needs. Her heart is as big as the stack of fleece on her couch in December and she is always on the look out for someone who might need it. I remember a story she told me of some blankets she made and kept in her vehicle until she found who they belonged to, because she knew they belonged to someone. Then one day she was talking to a stranger and realized that was the person who would get them to their proper owners. She has even helped our family find just the right fleece for special people as well as whipped up some creations for me last minute. I am excited to help her show off her cute stuff with this blog! I will turn this over to her, when she is ready, but will happily man (or should I say woman?) it for her with my camera and computer until then.

Shannon, I hope that you like your blog, because I don't know how to ever pay you back for all the help you have been to our family besides fleece wonders, including carting my kids to school and back, and for a listening sympathetic ear, and all the other stuff you do; probably some of which we don't even know about! You are amazing! Merry Christmas!
