Today was a 'lazy day',, so I took advantage of it and quilted up another little lap quilt for our local "Covers of Love" group...

 this photo is w/o a flash so you can see the top stitching...

 

this is with a flash,,, but then some of the lighter colors paled from the flash. oh well!
Now to get back to work on some of my neglected sewing UFO's... heeheehee!

Happy November Dayssssss.....

Yippeeee!  I love November.... why you ask???, well let me tell you...
Trader Joes Market starts displaying their fall food fest!!!! and Holiday foods...
Some of my favorite things,,,

 I bought 3 of the chocolate Advent Calendars, one for each of my grand-kiddos... and for me,,, a box of Brandy Beans,,, Oh YUM!!!

T.J, only carries their 'pumpkin pie' spice during the Autumn months... so I buy them  enough to get me through the summer,,, and it goes with out saying, Ditto on the Pumpkin Spice Bread and Scones...As for the Cedar multi-purpose cleaner,,, that is a staple in our house,,, I love using it and have been using it for well over 10 years...
Ok, time to open that box of Brandy Beans and enjoy!
Happy November....

Lazy Day Project,,,,

Today was one of those lazy dazes... you know the type,,, no pending projects, just a tad to cool to work outside and the sun is behind the clouds..
So while Hubby was tinkering on the truck I pulled out my Wool/felt craft sewing basket...
Several hours later,,, Voila! a sweet 'stacking dolls' candle cozy...

 pieces cut , assembled and starting to sew....

 almost finished...

 trimmed, decorated with itty bitty yo-yo flowers and tiny buttons.....

TaDa!  ready to send to a very special friend...
My dear friend is of Russian/German heritage. Her family came to America via Canada back at the turn of the century...and they are 1 of the 3 first original families to settle in the West Plains area of Spokane, known today as Airway Heights.
Some of the wool fabric is from some of my old wool clothing.. so I'll be a part of her family.

Happy Halloweenie... lol!

Ginger in her costume... and not toooo happy! lol!

 thank goodness I can't read her mind!!!! lol!

Happy Boo day...

Getting some UFO's Finished Up...

Well the good thing about rainy days is one can get a lot of UFO projects finished up!
So far I finished a scrappy quilt that had been lying around for way to long...

I also finished up some Loom knitted child size hats...
I especially luv the red one knitted from very thick velour type yarn...

and last I knitted one, adult size in navy and lime green,, yep, Seattle Seahawks colors...lol!

it can be worn with a rolled brim...

or with a cuffed brim...
Well now to pull out and get back to work on an infant afghan I started so many months ago and never finished... like I said, rainy days are good for getting UFO's finished... lol!
