School has started, the fair is over and football is going full force. Some folks are sad to see summer leave and I will miss summer flowers, long days and cookouts. But, Fall is full of hurry and scurry!! There is an excitement in the air as temperatures cool and leaves begin to change. This morning I watched a little squirrel working on his stash of winter acorns. The nut was almost as big as his head!!! That should provide a nice winter meal for him...if he remembers where it's buried!
I am stitching and knitting again after Spring hand surgery. Although...now my left wrist is giving me a fit. Old age is ringing all kinds of bells!! I was fortunate to visit A Likely Yarn in Abingdon, Virginia for the Miss Babs trunk show. I got Yowza, Favorite Boots and the pattern Brickless to knit a shawlette. Love this yarn. Love the pattern. Can't wait to get this finished and wear to SAFF in Asheville, North Carolina October 30-November 1, 2015. Miss Babs and scores of other vendors will be at this show. This will be great fun. I want to learn to use a hand spindle.
On the cross stitching front I have added to my collection of Prairie Schooler Patterns:
- Book 34 The New World Sampler
- Book 105 J*K*L
- Book 111 P*Q*R
- Book 112 S*T*U
- Book 116Y*&*Z
- The 2015 Santa ...And To All A Good Night
- The 2015 Halloween ...Night Flight
- The 2015 Freebie ...WHOO WHOO OWL
I've got several pictures of FINISHED and FRAMED cross stitch to show next time. Of course, they are small...BUT THEY ARE FINISHED AND FRAMED!!!!!
Are we really going to have lots of snow according to the number of fogs in August???
