Yes. Winter is coming and the Christmas quilts are starting!
The fabrics in this quilt are just beautiful.
Stitch in the ditch, plus 1/4" outlining outside the motifs. Trees in the trees, and a swirly thing in the stars.
Straight lines, x-hatching, and the cutest angel/tree/star border design.
Because Winter is Coming, the spiders have been very busy.
I took these pics on a morning just after the fog had burned off but everything was still wet.
I am scared of the big spiders that build these webs.
But I must say, they are certainly beautiful when covered in dew.
In my last post I was regaling you with the list of shit the Universe had rained down on us. The following week DH came down with pink eye. Gaaahhhh. The week after that, the front doorbell quit. That wouldn't normally be a big deal, but the doorbell is wired into the whole-house intercom system. Pfftt. One of us should have checked that one of us hadn't accidentally turned the power button to "off". 😉
ZUCCHINI REPORT TO CLOSE OUT THE 2017 SEASON
Picked over the last, what, 2 weeks? say... 6, because I'm not really sure.
Picked YTD: 89
Today I picked the remaining three weird football-ish orange squashes, three ripe pumpkins, and two wee immature pumpkins. There is one more pumpkin out there that I hope will finish turning orange. It was SO HOT here last week I had the air conditioner on. Never before in my life at the end of September!!! Then on Wednesday the temp plummetted. I think the coming week should be nice and "normal" for this time of year, like "Sweater Weather", so fingers crossed for the pumpkin, ok? I've promised the Beach Girls a pot of Spicy Pumpkin Soup on our Tobermory retreat. And lemme tell you - I'm counting down the days. I've saved my best bottle of wine.
