Pilgrims and Pioneers: Christmas Sneak Peek!!

Welcome To Pilgrims and Pioneers!

After many years of researching my family geneaology I have been lucky enough to discover actual information about my relatives that lived in the Pilgrim Era and the Pioneer Era- while many people also have realtives from those eras- many do not know their names or where they lived- actually seeing the proof in print makes you much more aware of who they really were.
After discovering these relatives it of course made me curious to learn more about the eras that they lived in and what their lives were like as, the history I learned in grade school had long since been forgotten.
I decided to start this blog for others who are also interested in these eras.
Some of the information here will be actual facts about my realtives and some will be information about the eras in general that I have found on the web.
I hope you will enjoy traveling back in time with me!

Christmas Sneak Peek!!

It is hard to think about Christmas in July but when you create you have to think ahead!

Several years ago my husband & I made a lot of these stockings to sell at craft shows- he did the cross stitching and I made them into the stockings.

I ran across the patterns today while I was cleaning out the craft room. I then decided we should do them again. So the next few days will be spent taking inventories of the supplies needed and preparing to start stitching. I hope to have them on the website in late October or early November.

Stay tuned!!!
