Back in the Saddle and a Give Away
Hello friends, hope you all had a great weekend and are getting used to Daylight Savings Time. As I write this, it is only 3:00 in the afternoon and I am thinking I should turn on the lights inside. It always takes me awhile to get used to the time change. Ozzie, not so…

November!
Hey everyone. Can you believe it’s November already? I won’t say “What happened to October?”, because I enjoyed every second of it. Glorious weather, and I appreciated being in my home and having my family near. Honestly, every day was perfect. I spent yesterday doing a clean up around the place. I put away all…

Halloween 2018
Once more we gathered for my family's Annual Halloween Party over the weekend. I think it's been more than 34 years that we have been doing this, but who's counting? That is my little family portrait above. It would be perfect for our Christmas cards, don't you think? My husband is a Pharaoh, my daughter…

Holiday Quilt Countdown
Here is a little sideways view of my almost completed red and white Christmas quilt. I have been getting up into the sewing room sporadically and making the rest of the flying geese. Only three more strips of ten geese to go, then I will assemble the sections. The final step will be to add…

Bad Blogger
Sorry I have been such a bad blogger lately. Life is just getting in my way I tell you. Here are a few things we have been up to. Eva and I made unicorn pumpkin cookies this weekend. Now that is a concept isn't it? We had the candy corn and while we were decorating…

What’s Pulling Me This Week
I don't have a lot to show for my time this week, but I have read a really spooky, good book. The Corset by Laura Purcell. I bought this in London, and don't think it is available yet in the US. If you haven't read her previous book, The Silent Companions, that is another really…

Another Fiber Art
Every year or so, I get the urge to knit something. My knitting skills are basic, at best, but I love to crank out a scarf or two every now and then. I am someone who would really benefit from taking a knitting class, or joining an informal knitting group. I can knit and purl…
