Fall is Coming Soon

Greetings to all!!

I'll believe it when I feel it.  Fall is suppose to arrive in

Virginia tomorrow with crisp temperatures.  The sun

is suppose to appear after several days of blessed,

but in some cases excessive amounts of rain.  We

so needed it though.  We live next to a wooded

area and I always start to fret when it becomes

this dry in the Fall.  We have kids who walk through

the woods going from one neighborhood to another.

I know some of them are smoking, so I worry

about fires.  Thankfully I can stop thinking

about that for a while.

  I am really into my Christmas designing now.

There will be so many new things to show

you in the coming weeks.  Here is a "snippet"

of a new design.

I will have the second design in my new "Delivering"

series soon.  It will be a Christmas design, full of "olde"

fashion charm.  I think you will like it.  Will

show a little bit of that soon.

Update on my automobile accident.  I will be

starting physical therapy on Monday for my

shoulders.  Happy to report that the Dr.

does not think it is my rotator, so no surgery.

Thank heavens.  I hate physical therapy but

maybe I will be even stronger than before

when it is over. 

Hope to get some Fall decorating done this weekend.

Will show some pictures of the transformation

when done.

In the upper left corner, I now have a link to my

Etsy site.  You might want to check there occasionally.

I am going to be listing my new publications and lots of

other finished "wares".  

Wishing you a great night with "Many Happy Stitches",

Sandra

Fall, I don't think so!!

Hi Everyone,

The calendar says it is Fall, but I don't think so.  I'm 

thinking mums and this is what I get in my garden.  It was

 100 degrees in Fredericksburg, VA yesterday and is in the

90's today.

I have usually decorated for Fall by now, but not

this year.  Even last year with the wedding fast

approaching and no extra time, I still had it

all finished.  Maybe tomorrow when the 

weather breaks I will be inspired.

I do have two little hints of Fall in my house to

share.  This is my wonderful antique dough bowl

filled with dried stuff (can you see the dried mini 

pineapples), pine cones, nuts, and great

smelling potpourri and my "mulled cider"

candle.  My favorite scent this time of year.

This has nothing to do with Fall, but I thought

I would show you my guest bathroom that has 

my collection of silhouettes.  This doesn't show

them all.  I'm just a little obsessed with them.

The one in the upper right is one of my designs.

 I will have some more

sneak peaks soon and "wares" for sale.

In regard to the "Stitching Lady" journals

a few posts back.  I titled it All Gone and many

of you thought I meant they were all gone.  I

was referring to the four journals on the

previous post for the special price.  All of

the journals are available and will continue to

be at the $10.00 price.  Hope this clears up

the confusion.  I need to think a little more

before I write.  

"Many Happy Stitches"
