Day at the Park

One of the last truly warm and beautiful days of fall, we spent it together at the park!

Jack O

We found a nice large orange pumpkin in the local supermarket for a very reasonable price, I couldn't resist buying it, Julia was enthusiastic about carving it out. It's our first really, we once made paper mache Jack O Lanterns but it rained the day after we set them outside and we came out to little piles of orange mush.. This year we have a genuine authentic Jack O Lantern to put on our gate!

My latest quilt

Scrappy Stars sort of quilt, started in July, hopefully will finish before the end of the year, but somehow, I doubt it. I have to sew the large star blocks together, then add 2 borders, backing, quilting and binding, still lots of work. For now it's decorating my living room wall.

Goodbye Tony

Tony's been gone now for almost 2 months, but we miss him, and these are the final shots of us dropping him off at the airport. One day we hope to live closer or see him again for a nice long visit!
