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!

Needle Felting

I have always wanted to learn needle felting but had no idea where to start- I found this online tutorial that seems pretty good- adding a needle felted applique to a purchased felted item.

I tried needlefelting and ended up with quite a few puncture wounds, so watch out! I used a needle with little barbs all along the end of it -- I made a little ball for the cats to play with -- they loved it, but then one of the dogs gobbled it down. *sigh* I can't wait to see what you needlefelt!

Oh Gosh! after the puncture wounds & time you spent on that- and then it got gobbled up! You have my sympathy!
