Have a wonderful day!

S'mores!!!

The weather here in Illinois has just been beautiful. I love "Indian Summer"! So, we had the whole family over and my husband made a fire and we enjoyed S'mores!!

YUMMY

Our backyard pit area.....

Evidence of the fun.....

We also played a word gamed Banana's, super fun, just like scrabble.

Speaking of Scrabble, I NEVER go on Facebook but a friend challenged me to a game of Scrabble on Facebook. I am having a blast! No idea about the rest of Facebook but love this game.

Time to put up Halloween and Fall decorations.

Here are a few of my quilted projects.

This is a counted cross stitch hanging, that I made at least 20+ years ago, she is old and wrinkled, just like me!!

A Fall Table-runner I leave on my kitchen table all October and November.

Leaves and pumpkins, raw edged, and just tacked together for another table-topper.

My favorite, Charlie Brown, Oh how I adore Peanuts. Warm, happy memories from my childhood.

 Good Ol' Charlie Brown!

And of course my Halloween Swap Quilt.

 

Sewing??

Oh yes, the PJ's are done and now I am taking them apart. Talk about the wrong size!! The crotch was down to his knees!!! Hard to measure a 2 1/2 year old!! I am going to try again!!

Sewing...Really???

Sewing??? Hmmm??

Oh yes!

That is what I did before quilting!

Lined jackets, dresses, blouses, skirts, PJ's

Soooo here we have Little T...

All Mommy wanted was some jammies

Should be easy, peasy!

Here is a pattern and some fabric....

See Jane open the pattern..

See Jane try to refold the pattern and get it

TO FIT

back as it was!!

You need a degree in rocket science to refold these, that I remember very well!!

Hopefully you will

See Jane show...

you jammies soon!!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Dr. Seuss...

Well, I am hand quilting Little M's quilt, so time to work on one for Little T.

Dr. Seuss!!

I love the fun colors of theses fabrics.

I have paired them with

Kona Red

Kona Lagoon

(Kona sale going on)

and some brights from my stash.

Off to cut!

I also finished block number three for my

Winter Wonderland.

Have a super day!

It is a Wantobe day, head over to

Sew We Quilt!

I would love to show you.....

BUT

I can't!!

It is raining and dark outside so I cannot take a picture.

I have finished Little M's quilt top, border and all!!

 I have decided to stitch a heart in the blank squares.

These are the threads I have auditioned.

First you will see white on the right side (a little of the making is showing through, that would wash out).

Then on the left you will see light pink, then dark pink.

I think I know which one I should use but...

What do you think?

Note to self!

No need to comment.
