Sept 18th- A few of my favorite things...

~A mushroom that popped up in a patch of lucky clover who...

~Invited his friends to the party in the rain-soaked lawn not knowing...

~There is a new groundskeeper coming to break up the party...when did she get big enough to mow the lawn?

Sept 17th- A few of my favorite things...

~Dahlias of bright magenta

~Dahlias of nuanced pale pink 

~Dahlias of bold pink...even more striking with a friend nearby

Sept 16th- A few of my favorite things...

~Fall: A time where color appears on the trees,

~Color spills onto the ground, and...

~Color fills the expanse of the sky

Sept 15th- A few of my favorite things...

~Turning a quilting square into a seam guide

~The satisfying crispness of freshly ironed fabric

~Patience that turns squares into cubes with skills that are stacking up

Sept 14th- A few of my favorite things...

~The beautiful colors  and soft texture of Homespun yarn

~The ease of knitting on circular needles

~Beginning a blanket for a grandson who will be joining the family in about a month

Sept 13th- A few of my favorite things...

~Sunflowers that seem to want to brighten the day

~New England Asters that add a splash of purple to the oranges and yellows and reds

~Hydrangeas whose color seems to be melting away 

Sept 12th- A few of my favorite things...

~A yard of vinyl leather that, like "Joseph Had A Little Overcoat", was first enough to make new pockets

~Second, enough to cover a well loved ottoman, and 

~Third, just enought left over to make sheaths for shears with just a small bag of scraps leftover
