Finally Cooler Weather

Finally, we have the start to a wonderful Autumn.The doors and windows are open. The hum of the upstairs air conditioner is gone to be replaced with the sound of the chainsaw. My husband thought our pepper tree needed a hair cut after this long hot summer. A few more days of this and I might feel almost human.

I finally did get some things finished this week. Here is the picture of my latest rug.

This was a fun rug to make. It was fun learning to dye the oranges and the yellows and the reds. This is a quilt pattern from the magazine Primitive Quilts and Projects. Someday I just have to make the quilt. It was fun doing it in wool.

My next projects come from Nan Lewis. Her blog is called, Threadwork Primitives. I love her patterns and when I can I love to work them up. She is a awesome designer.

This is a needle fob that goes on your scissors to hold your needle so you don't put it in your mouth. Which I am trying to break the habit of so I keep putting these little goodies on my scissors.

This is her Halloween pattern. I just love sewing words I guess.

What was fun about this was I used my wools that I dyed myself for this project. I like mixing the wool and the counted cross stitch.

In spite of what a busy week, I am always glad when I have some kind of finishes to show you. Now that it is cooler I hope I can show you some wood projects soon. I have wood cut but I had no ambition to turn it into anything.

I want to also wish my oldest daughter a very happy birthday today. I can't believe that 31 years ago today you were born and forever changed my life for the better. There has never been a day of your life that I haven't thanked God for blessing my life with you. I hope your day is just as blessed as you continually bless mine.

I hope your Saturday is a wonderful day, Thank you for stopping by and visiting with me today.
