It's Been Too Long

My dear friends, I'm sorry it's been so long

since I posted to my blog.

Where did the month of August go?

To say I have been busy is a real

understatement.

But hopefully I can soon show you

all that I've been stitching.

I've been decorating for Fall/Halloween.

It's my favorite time of the year and

I try and get the house done

as soon as Sept. hits.

I've just acquired a few really cool

pieces from some wonderful artists 

that I just have to show you.

First, I had a birthday in Aug and

my hubby bought me a hand painted

Halloween game board

that I was dying to have.

He got it from and Etsy shop

called JohnnyUNamath 

The Owl in the picture is also new

and was made by Marlene of

Village Primitives

Next is another Owl and Pumpkin

head Make Do from

Aunt Harriet.

I now have a thing for owls as well as pumpkins.

And last but certainly not least 

is a hooked rug that I really 

wanted the second I saw it.

I don't hook so when the artist 

Cathy of Red House Wool Studio

offered a make one special

order of her "1820 Sunflower" rug

I jumped at it and emailed her

as fast as my fingers would type : )

It hangs in my beloved sewing studio

and makes me smile.

I promise not to stay away so long.

I hope that all of you are enjoying

the weekend and doing something you

love.

Happy Stitching!
