Spring Forward, Fall Back...

Where has the time gone since my spring post? I have almost forgotten how to blog. I never meant to wait so long. I have visited my favorite blogs, always meaning to leave my comments, but most of my browsing is done on my iPad nowadays, and I cannot express how much I dislike trying to comment from it. Anyhow! I hope all have had a wonderful summer. We had a very late start to spring, with frost in May, and we almost missed summer...oh well, there is always another season just around the bend.

My first finish this year, and my favorite design, was A Yuletide Welcome by Plumstreet Samplers. This was such a fun design to work on, probably the most enjoyable I have ever done. Jill Rensel made it beautiful!

A little closeup..I changed the color of the over-one "this work..." to a red that was in the design. No reason..I just liked it.

 

And here is a closeup of the frame..I'm not sure if the "curve" is obvious in the picture, but it was quite an unexpected surprise when I saw it. I don't know what you call it, but I love it.

 

Along came Betsy's Stockings, also by Plumstreet, but I only had time to do one of them.

 

 

About the time I was finished with this, I decided it was time to do a few fall smalls..

I am finished with what I set out to do but wish I could have done more..

 

Thank you so much for stopping by and taking a peek at what I have been up to..I have done tons of cooking, baking, gardening, and enjoying family and friends this beautiful summer. I hope you all have a wonderful fall! Until next time...
