Off for an adventure

Well my hubby is taking me out of this house for several days.  We plan to wander the backroads of PA, visit our fave "junk" places and eateries.  We'll loll around in Lancaster county for a day or two and who knows..........I love these trips with no itinerary.  Our life seems so routine sometimes and stressful, gotta stop and smell the roses.
I'll be back to report and hopefully with a pic or two or three to share with you.

Fall Stuff!

I know, it's been too slow coming.  I deal with health issues on a daily basis anymore it seems.

Today's was a migraine.  Trying to get things done and caught up but I have decided to accept the fact that I am not super human.  Yep, sorry to disappoint....LOL
Summer's been hot (yay!) but dry (BOO).  The garden is trying it's best but we are having to water to keep it alive.  There is some promise in there, however. 
I've enjoyed some time outdoors with my grandies, just sitting in the swing while they play is good enough for me.
Here's the first of my fall offerings so far,  I simply call this one, "Fall Stuff".  That just about covers it.
In this pattern you will see a variety of items.  First we have this banner, I measured it at 39" long not including the tie strings.


 Each of those cats and pumpkins would make good bowl fillers or ornies as well.


Then we have the trio.


These are easy to make.  The candy corn and the pumpkin are 10" tall,  the cats are 7" tall and the widest point, their heads, are about 5" across.  They will stand freely when you
attach the cat to the front.  You can also just make a bunch of
cats, or just a bunch of the big pumpkins or candy corns




At any rate, you should be able to have ALOT of fun with this pattern.  It is $10.00 plus shipping but mention you saw it on my blog and I will ship for free!
As always, hope your day is filled with God's blessings!!!
