Hi dougnjess, I am interested in trading for your Green Paty Pan, Chard Bright lights and amash paste tomato. I think I have some things on your wish list. Thanks, Catrina

Gary, am looking forward to your thread concerning seeds. There is an expanding market out there for those of us who grow veggies in containers especially, IMHO. While Dawn has given me a good start with her thread regarding suitable vegetable varieties for containers, it just takes a ton of research on the Internet to find those certain varieties, and right now, I don't expect we will ever see a one-stop-shop solution to the situation. So, I've been bouncing from seed site to seed site, like Tigger, trying to locate a few that are suitable containers, suitable for Oklahoma, and that I can expect fairly good production from. I also like purchasing smaller packs of seed because I don't grow as many vegetables as the typical in-ground gardener. I would definitely be interested in seed for proven plants in Oklahoma, and hopefully you can offer some determinate and dwarf tomatos, and other vegetables that can be grown in pots. Not trying to influence your decision, but just give some input. I also don't think you would have any problems with advertising by word of mouth! LOL! Thanks for the explanation, Dawn, but I am still unsure about the issues of non-GMO, so will take your info into consideration and continue doing more research. There is so much information out there on the worldwide web and with it as many opinions, pro and con. There has been some discussion here at GW, especially on the Organic Gardening Forum. I've already purchased most of my seed for this spring, If I save my seed of my heirlooms this year, I will have organic seed next year for those. I think there are certain vegetables that you shouldn't save unless you have taken proper precautions to protect them from cross-pollinating with other varieties of the same type, e.g., squash, is that correct? Anyway, we may not have to worry about GMO seeds right now, but it could happen eventually. BTW, I went to the Harris Seeds website today and it was just a real pain to navigate. They may have been working on it, so I'll try again tomorrow. Susan

Hi JuJu, Glad to see your post. I LIKE prim stuff as accents and am thinking about ideas to make. I don't do woodwork, but mostly sewing, quilting. I like the use of black in prim things. I also like dolls, including the Prim Annies, but have stored most of my dolls and don't use them for decorating anymore. Next project idea is a super Prim look pineapple appliqued on pillows for couches. Let's hear more of your projects! Used to have Amish dolls and things sitting around. I feel passe' now....

Try Simplicity Pattern #9563 It is a pattern for an amish boy and girl doll and bunny with clothes. Traditional dress with apron and bonnet, overalls for the man with hat, same for the bunnies. They are 20" tall. This is a 1995 pattern so I don't know if it is still available. Good Luck!
