The month of October has come and gone. Thankful for some mild weather for the last couple of weeks. Thankful for family. Thankful for our good health. Thankful for the beauty around us.
This picture was just taken with my cell phone so doesn't show the great colours and details or the field with mountains in the background and the chinook ridge (clouds) coming last week.
My latest funky nails:
Last weekend a few fellow quilters and I, went to a sale at Beaver Creek Mercantile. It was a fun trip!!
I made a mug rug and bought this mug for Diane (in the above picture holding the bag). It's her birthday tomorrow....she's a fellow EA at the school I am working at and yes, she has chickens! It looks very wonky in the pic and kind of ripply but it's not....weird!
Soooooooo I did another rearrange in my sewing room.......to make space for......
this! My friend Sue gave it to me because she got a long arm machine. This set up was given to her so she passed it on to me! How lucky eh??? We drove to High River last Sunday and came home and set it up....except I didn't have the power cord for the sewing machine!!!! Sue has popped it in the mail so I will have to wait to play with it. She had trouble with the tension so I will have to take a look and clean and oil it to see if I can get it working okay. Nice to keep it at five feet instead of ten as ten would never fit. I can't wait to quilt the pile of small projects I have waiting!
Halloween was this week.....two Halloween days at school....gotta love kindergarten! I was happy when Wednesday was over! Here are two adorable trick or treaters!!!!!.....
Not so adorable but the EAs all dressed up as "Things" from Dr Seuss. Not very figure flattering but it was fun!
It tried to snow today but didn't amount to much! I hope it doesn't either!!! I know it's that time of year (September was way too early!) but I can't say that I am ready to drive in it, or shovel it........
Well off to bed! Hope I can fit in more stitching tomorrow. Son2 is here for the weekend. Nice Hubby will have company when he goes in the coffee in the morning! hahaha
