Happy Blockheads Wednesday

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood

or on the farm.


After starting the coffee each morning
the first thing I do is
sweep the leaves and water the plants.


Mostly - as you can see the leaves just
keep falling.  :(


I just love all of my pumpkins.


Then I get my coffee and walk
up to the chicken yard where
the chickens are waiting at the gate
eager to get out.

Jeff or Nancy have already let the
out of the chicken house and they
really want to get to the grass and stuff.


Back at the house I spent the morning yesterday
stitching and watching the congressional investigation and stitching.
I'm working on this Fall's Tablestand.


We have 2 patterns on sale this week - a BOGO.


The Witch is In

and Trick of Treat - 

It's time to get ready for Halloween.



Tammy had a family emergency and had to be
out of town so they may not be on sale at the store
until Thursday.

I know how to work my computer but I'm not 
very good with hers.  
Anyway, happy stitching and see you next week.

Summer almost gone - but Fall is on the way

To say goodbye to summer,
we've put the "Summertime" 
kit on sale in our store.
You can get to the store by clicking here.


The little quilt is enjoying it's last week on the wall
in the back hall until we welcome it
back next year.


Meanwhile out in the garden
Jeff's pumpkin is doing quite well,


And it's sporting blossoms for more pumpkins.
Mmm., pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving.
I know  - we need pie pumpkins for pies
but I can dream.


In the house the Fall quilts are going up.
Jeff came and hung "Fall Festival" for
us today so it should be going on sale soon.
And I think we even have a kit or two left.


I'm not sure if we have any kits left 
for "Flock Party" but I'll check and I 
know we have patterns.

Have a great week ladies and see you next week.

We're almost out of September

Happy Blockheads Wednesday        

Purple Pumpkin Patch - well, sort of


Besides Purple Pumpkins there are a few 
other colors - like blue, red and of course orange.


There will be a big house in the center of the quilt

with all of the pumpkins making up the borders. - 

- At least that's the plan for now, we'll have to

see how it turns out.  

Sometimes these quilts have a mind of their own.



It was my birthday on the 7th and 

this is the centerpiece my friend 

Suzanne from Germany sent me, along with 

some yummy chocolates.

Thanks Suzanne.

I need to see if there's a pattern for those 

awesome pumpkins.



Here are the pumpkins on my front porch.

Luckily pumpkins are waterproof because 
it started raining last night.

And speaking of water, Zoie and I went to
Liberty last week to refurbish my aquarium
with plants and 2 new goldfish.


This is Annie - she's an Oranda and
seems to have adjusted well.


It's Summer Tablestand time.
This summer's table stand
is called  Watermelon Basket and 
sports the basket, sunflowers, and 
a flag lovingly held by a bird on
the front.


The back repeats the baskets, flags
and birds in four 6" blocks.

                                                 

You can order a kit or a

            pattern by clicking here.

Have a great week ladies and see you. next week.
