New home for the PeaceGarden

For immediate release 10/8/21:

Message of Hope patio is moving to Wingfield Park Memorial Garden

The PeaceGarden where we honor our loved ones by painting butterflies will be relocated from the ArtCave to Wingfield Park Memorial Garden.

Parks and Rec will continue the tradition of allowing people to paint wooden butterflies honoring their loved ones and these butterflies will live in the trees above the PeaceGarden patio at Wingfield.

Artist Jana Lynch is looking for retailers who would like to offer the matching merchandise.

Retailer’s on Suddeth should consider carrying these products due to the popularity and exposer of this Patio to our visitors from all over the world.

Can you imagine when there are 1000s of butterflies in the trees at Wingfield?

Well We think people will want to take home the matching merchandise where they honored their loved ones.

Some of the proceeds will go to the Lincoln County Food Bank.

More to come.

Her Wedding day

I get to go to a wedding in a few weeks of the first human I ever saw come out of the womb.

If you’ve never seen it. Set an intention to do so and see if you’re blessed enough to find someone who will grant this day to you.

Well, I had such friends … that one in a billion couple, who granted me this day, not just once but twice … Rebecca Lovett Dykes and husband Donald Elwood Dykes. Thank you.

My first, Ariel Dykes … I got the call that you were coming. I jumped on the plane. You waited me to arrive, I looked into you mama’s eyes and said “Beck, I could not do this, but you can”, and so she did and you were born.

Your umbilical cord was the colors of a pearl, you, I swear, can see the world inside it, and inside there runs the ocean with all the aqua colors of the universe running thur it – as the ocean turns to red blood … you know this child YOU, just entered an evil world, but you are here with great purpose, as we all are, and that is, to solve the angelic conflict … and your road will be full of rocks that test you daily. I’m happy to report, this, that YOU pass these tests, and applies solutions that propels you towards the light.

You are breathtaking.

And I saw God breath life into you, your first breath of air, and you, the most beautiful girl I ever saw, screamed out your first breath right into my face.

I cryed all the way home. Everyone on the plane ✈️ had to stand down … because they KNEW without a doubt, that this was my moment because I had seen a miracle. God decided her moment of arrival, and he and only he will decide her moment of departure. (Not your doctor, nor your government not you but God)

I can’t wait for Oct 23, 2022 – Ariel picked a good one to spend her live with. – Jaron Robertson … May YOU ALWAYS consider her first in every decision you makes. That is your charge a direct order from God. You got this!

So to the couple, Slow everything down now. You didn’t it! You are prepared. You have arrived to your special day. Take tons of mental photos.

And please try not to look my way on your day … as I’ll be the one in the back, having an emotional private moment.

I was happy … she seemed pleased.

A giant of a man … Kevin Stepp

I am so grateful I get the opportunity to work with my husband Kevin.

I knew he was exceptional, but until you get to work with him?! Well … he takes my breath away. He treats every business as if he owns it. There is no job there, that is beneath him. He just goes to work.

He’s a spiritual giant, so he has no problem serving people with great humility and respect.

What was Albertson’s thinking? … sad deal, fear rules the day … but No matter … we’ve passed the test. And we are beyond Grateful.

What an honor and a privilege it is to serve with him. It’s like God has just opened up tons more opportunities for us, so that we can continue TOGETHER to build HOPE … because simply put, it’s time.

I’m so grateful to my village for wanting the PeaceGarden in a public space. Thank you.

I can’t wait to see where we light next.

I want to thank Chon Caswell, Shal Holly and all the gang for welcoming us to the Casa Blanca Restaurant family. We love you all. We love your customers who now feel like our friends. It feels like family. We are SO grateful that you stopped our financial bleed out. Thank you!

Excited for our future. Hummm it may be we are to be in multiple towns … just hitting thier season and helping small businesses survive. Interesting and an extremely fun thought?!?

You need a job? … let me restate that … The job needs you … even if you have only one day to give. It’s yours … It’s time guys … it’s war now, we got to push back and help save small businesses … Go help I beg you. The money is great. I don’t know about you but I wanna eat out, go to bars, hear live music and shop local … it will be a thang of the past if you don’t go help.

I’m excited to serve you over at Casa. Join me at your table … Tuesday and Wednesday lunch. Thursday and friday dinner. Then the Paintedartist Artcave & Garden will be open Saturday and Sunday 1 to 4 pm … Until we get our marching orders.

Love and peace to all.

My husband and our two little girls. IGs named Sissi and Lady Grace.

July 13 – Hello From Ruidoso Radio Show

Jackie Hunter – Women in Business

A Quilting Stitchuation, LLC, began on the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska in 2015. We were located in a small 12×32 quilt cabin my husband and I designed.

Our first project was a hot rod t-shirt quilt and we were hooked. Shortly thereafter a Long Arm was purchased and we began quilting, teaching and selling fabric, notions and gifts on a very small scale.

The dream of owning a brick and mortar business quickly became a reality after we purchased a home in Alto, NM and found a building to lease in beautiful Ruidoso, NM. After a month and a half of renovations (painting, carpeting, etc.) we had our soft-opening on December 17th and our Grand Opening was January 19, 2017. We had a record number of attendees, ribbon cutting, Accuquilt and class demo’s, Live Radio Broadcast, and giveaways.

A Quilting Stitchuation has grown and evolved over the last several years and at the end of 2020 we purchased our own property in Alto, NM. The plan is to have the quilt shop, retreat center and retreat house all in the same location! In May 2021, we will open our new retreat house to the first group of quilting retreaters! Eventually we will complete the existing metal building into a quilt shop, as well as a brand new building that will become New Mexico’s first quilt retreat center, Stitch-n-Pines Retreat Center, LLC. Currently we may hold up to nine guests and after the new building is complete, up to 20!!

What is “A Quilting Stitchuation, LLC and Stitch-n-Pines, LLC?” They are a place for creativity, fun, and knowledge to be shared with others who appreciate the love, time and warmth that goes into every stitch. Life is too short to not love what you do and do what you love. We fell in love with fabric, quilting, and the great people we met and continue to meet along the way.

This business offers Janome Machines, fabric, notions,patterns, kits, books, gifts and long arm quilting services, as well as classes, but most of all it’s a gathering place for friends to spend time together. We also provide knife and scissor sharpening and cleaning/servicing/repairing of most sewing machines!

Thank you for visiting and we hope to see you in the store or as a guest at our new retreat center!
