Love is in the air ...
Here is a simple and fast to stitch pattern
I called it "Pa and Ma".
Laura called her parents "Pa and Ma" because at that time
children did not call their parents "Dad and Mom".
I imagined this pattern to celebrate Caroline and Charles Ingalls's love ...
and also to celebrate Valentine's day !

and Laura and Mary made acorn cups and saucers for the playhouses."

"The pumpkins and the squashes ...
Pet and Patty ...
For this new pattern, I got inspiration from LAURA's love for animals
- In one of her books, Laura INGALLS wrote:
- "They were beautiful little horses, and Pa said they were not really ponies;
- they were western mustangs.
- When Laura asked what their names were,
- Pa said that she and Mary could name them.
- So Mary named one, Pet, and Laura named the other, Patty."

A rag doll named Nettie ...
“Mary was bigger than Laura, and she had a rag doll named Nettie.
Laura had only a corncob wrapped in a handkerchief,
but it was a good doll.
It was named Susan. It wasn't Susan’s fault that she was only a corncob.
Sometimes Mary let Laura hold Nettie, but she did it only when Susan couldn't see."

Ma's inventory pillow
Laundry inventory pillows were used in colonial time.
A straight pin was affixed to the appropriate number
beside each item sent for washing.
After the items were cleaned,
the pillow and pins helped to make sure
everything was accounted for.
