MOVIN ON

 Oh my--blogger has done it again--changed how I can type my post--would someone send them a 'post' and tell them to leave us alone!!!

Well--I did report my bad leak --in my window area-to the office and someone came to take a look at it--and then told me--it would cost too much to fix it correctly-WHAT?????

On to some fun --

I have been busy doing some English paper piecing and growing a garden of flowers--

I have more of these to sew together and yesterday I cut out more of them--this time using the fabric that I used in the centers of these for the petals and found some other fabrics for the centers on them!

I also got this months bird block all prepared to applique some time this week--

And on the week ends while watching racing--NASCAR--I am steadily working on the embroidering on this Christmas scene--

and I will be working on this this afternoon while watching the race!!!

And I did get this counted cross stitching all finished and framed to this point for now--

Last Saturday my son and dil invited me to an event in Wickham park--called Junkin-Pumpkin!  It turned into a beautiful sunny day and a good time out--lots and lots of walking and looking!!

And a large crowd--first time I have been around this large of a crowd in 3 years or more!!  Our first stop had to be at a Coffee truck so Sarah could have her coffee--

There was suppose to be other coffee trucks there--but only this one could make it-remember this is just a couple days after hurricane Ian!! ( the event at the park had to be moved to a different area even as alot of the park was still standing water!!)  Welllll--we waited in line with Sarah for 15-20 minutes to just put her order in--then there was another 15-20 minute for them to make the drink--which cost her $9 --ouch!!!!

and here is the back of my son-Dan-thought I got a photo of the both of them--opps!!!

I did finally get some Fall/Halloween decorating done on Friday--

and see that black cat in the window--that was my gift to me from the Junkin Punkin--he is really a thick piece of wood--he's a keeper as he is all house broken!!!  This event was right up my 'alley"--all the booths were country stuff or antique kind of items--only this apartment is so small there is just not enough room for much more--too many quilts on the walls for one thing!!!

More knitted baby hats have been done and another sweater was completed this week--and I have not one, but 2 counted cross stitching projects on the needles--one is a fall one!!!

Last week I had fun watching two large birds fly around outside--

actually one sat on the roof of the apartment building across from me and the other one was flying around--I believe they are Osprey's!

Well--I am off to the races--sounds good anyways--

HAVE AN AWESOME WEEK AND I AM STILL THINKING AND PRAYING FOR ALL THE FLORIANS WHO LOST SO MUCH DURING--IAN--

BLESSINGS AND HUGS, DI
