Leaves

 My 'Falling Leaves' quilt is finished and ready to use...

and just in time for our 'Falling Temps'.

Dakota Man made me this sweet little barn quilt for the house.

It's a busy little house that we live in.

Door County

 We got to eat at Door Counties famous Al Johnson's restaurant for my birthday last month. The one with goats on the roof. We ordered Scandinavian pancakes with lingonberry syrup and meatballs. We were not disappointed.

                                       Afterwards we browsed their cute gift shops.

We came home and made the cute pixies we saw there. I'm always on the lookout for projects we can make together. Dakota Man turned the wood and I did the painting. One for each of our granddaughters.

Flowers and other stuff

                             It's finally cool enough to cover up with the quilt I'm binding.

          I couldn't resist buying a bottle of kombucha at the farmers market Saturday.

I resolve to buy myself more flowers.

Fall

 Dakota Man made me a new scarecrow. He even did the painting.

I picked up pumpkins and a mum while we were in Door County.  They were doing a lot of decorating for fall there which inspired me. 

What's not to love about fall right? Help a pumpkin farmer out and go buy a a few or ten.

Fall finally

Happy fall y'all. 

           We survived another hot summer.

We hit a farm stand Saturday, one of my favorite things to do this time of year. It won't be our last stand either.

I wonder if I have any pearl buttons in my button box?

This is for you daughter knit and pearl...

Home again

 We took off early yesterday morning and headed home.

We were camped on the Wisconsin Minnesota border by the Mississippi River.

There was fog rising above the cornfield as we left.

Today I have been back in my routine making soup and bread.

It was another great fall trip for us.

b

Sailing

            Two more outfits I made the grands for their dolls before we left on our trip.

Now if I were going sailing today I would wear the cute pants and top then come back and put on the dress for a nice seafood meal on the wharf.
