A New Week

Time certainly flies and it is hard to believe that it’s already mid September! How did that happen? The days are getting shorter and there is the tiniest hint of Fall in the air. I can hardly wait for my favorite season to arrive. 

Blake and I are busy this week helping with exhibit check ins for our county fair. Covid caused last year’s fair to be cancelled , and I feared it would be the same this year. But, alas, it is moving forward. It is fun to check in the exhibits each year and see what everyone is up to. Lots of inspiration.  On Wednesday I will be on the judging team for Youth Handicrafts. Not an easy job, as they mostly work hard on their items and I hate to disappoint. 

I have finally finished hooking Woodland Santa aside from a little tweaking of the eye on the right. 

Next comes the job of figuring out how to finish the back in order to fit him on the nice easel stand that friend Laura’s husband made. 

Next up I completed the wool applique cat hanging. 



I wish that I had used a flat strip of wood rather than the round dowel to make him lay flat. Next time…,

Got the first Stacy Nash club piece in the mail from Country Sampler. Along with the cute pedestal for mounting. 

It looks like fun and is beautifully kitted…as is everything from Country Sampler. 

Our garden is done for the season barring the okra, which always comes in late. 

There’s plenty for eating and freezing. 

It’s hard to believe that this sweet boy has been with us for three full years!!


Thanks for visiting and….
Take Care,

Jennie
