WOW, the duckies are a hit in the Fall Blog Giveaway :)  I actually have 4 different kinds and purchased them years ago to send along with giveaways and gifts.  I'm actually running low on them....if you want you can get your own at Oriental Trading Company....AND THEY HAVE GIRLIE duckies now....oo, looks like I need to stock up on those as well :)

Thank you for all the new followers.  It is nice to visit new blogs as well.

So, I'm a big ...ok HUGE fan of Halloween!  Unfortunately, being in a small apartment, limits my decorating options- but I'll share with you some of what I have up.

 (that is Supernatural on the tv - we have been watching our dvds lately :))

 Had to make a fall curtain for our door - the window is huge - don't need a peep hole!

Wait, the last picture isn't a decoration is it?? :)  My kitty, Glory.  

 The Weather Lady just said, this is "perfect pumpkin weather" and I couldn't agree more.  What are your Halloween/Fall decorations?

Fall Blog Giveaway!

October 1st is here!  So, we can reveal our giveaways!

I took some of the advice mentioned in the Fall Giveaway Blog and went through my stash of patterns, books, fabric, notions.....and lookie what I found - not too much, but maybe ya'l might want these things:

A few patterns:

One roll of ribbon (duckies included):

And some fabric - being I have such a limited stash already, thinking someone might enjoy my leftovers from my apron and a nice FQ with kitties on it:

Then I thought, well some folks might enjoy something unique and new and seasonal, so I made one more extra towel just for this swap:

Ok, now I will draw a winner on October 15th, using Random.org.  You need to leave a comment and make sure you have an email I can reach you at. 

BONUS:  You can add up to 2 more comments over the next 2 weeks (more chances to win!), but don't do them all on the same day - I will deleted duplicates on the same day.   So, 3 comments total during the next 15 days.

Good luck and thanks for stopping by!

Towels are outta here!!!

I finally got all the towels in the mail yesterday!  Whew!  Everyone should have them within the next week or so....but I can't wait to show off them...wanna see??

Now the one I did as a tester and for me, isn't as pretty and was tempted to switch it out, but I resisted.  This won't be the last you see of these either. . . . . (that's a tease for something later on this week).  I definitely want to do this swap again next year, I just love the monthly towels I receive!

Hubby was visiting over the weekend and as is the norm for his visits, lots of unpacking, lots of sightseeing, lots of cuddling and lots of ....mmmm...and NO sewing.  Though I did do some of my hexies while we watched tv one night.

I am working on several things and trying to get my BOMs done for September and some other commission work today...first off to get my hair cut!

Happy Equinox - Happy Fall!

It will be official - Fall will arrive at tonight at 11:09 EST pm.  It's my favorite time of year!  And my favorite month is October!  So, I've redone my blog theme to reflect that! :)

I have been working hard on the towel swap and today I plan to start mailing out towels that are going out of the USA.  These towels took a little more work than I expected, but I'm very happy with the results!  I don't want to spoil the fun just yet until they all arrive to their new homes, but here's a few teasers:

Weee....love this time of year!  My day off and I have a few errands to run, but will end up sewing most of the day away!

Also, I'm participating in the Fall Blog Giveaway...be sure to visit me on October 1st to see what I'm giving away...I'll start posting those teases tomorrow :)
