Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Alice Cantrell came up with the wonderful idea of sharing toymaking ideas for the run up to Christmas... so there are going to be blog carnivals held monthly
I'm hosting the first, this month, on Tuesday 25th September... just enough time to think something up and post it.
If you want to participate, you can PM me or drop me a line in the comments of my blog .
This seemed like a great place to post so that the kids can participate too

I would really like to participate! I made two Old Dobbin Hobby Horses for Christmas and a little set of finger puppets... Is this what you have in mind?

Rebecca, ANYTHING goes... so long as it is handmade toy related
Perhaps a child made something, or you made something for a child. Perhaps you know someone who made something or have a story about something handmade.
It's all good

Submissions for the Toymaking faire need to be in to me by Monday evening. Of course it has JUST come to my attention that Wednesday is the 26th... and TUESDAY is the 25th!
I can and will add latecomers to my post if necessary, but it is nicer if I can get it all up and running by Monday night .
PM me or email me (details in the blog)
