WHAT'S UP-SUNDAY

 Wondering today what is 'up' with everyone today????  I figure most of you have your Fall/Halloween decorations up and most have been enjoying some cooler weather--like I said 'most'--her on the east coast of Florida--it is still humid and some days downright muggy--but I am not complaining--not one tiny bit--I am only sad cause of all the weather events some of you are going through or have family who are going through some rough times--sending prayers your way--

What I am really 'wondering' about is --when will I win the lottery so I can come and visit each of you and--  take you out to lunch--oh wait--I think I remember something about--one has to buy a ticket before you can see about winning---------------------???

I did get this month's Roundabout all done from Melisa--


Yep--I did do something in orange --if you look closely you will a back cat peeking up over a pumpkin in 4 of the plates and 2 of the black plates have a crow in them!!  Just two more,roundabouts, to go!

another block finished in the Blue Tilda baskets--


not sure if I will add anything to this one or not???  I do have at least one more nearly finished--but--along came all the monthly projects to work on!

I worked on the rick rack border on this one--


Now to decide on the final finishing of this one????

And I did get some actual sewing on the machine one afternoon --


the center, is a panel and I did the 2 wide borders on it--that center piece is 43" long--will be 40" wide--and this one is for donation--hopefully it will be finished by Nov!!   And I have a second kids quilt started in 5 1/2" finished blocks and hope to show that next week--

And in cross stitching I was able to work on this piece all week--

I am enjoying working on this--but--that Mrs. Claus is yelling at me--that she wants me to work on her this next week--then there is some Halloween littles from Melisa yelling at me to stitch them--tune in next week to see who 'yelled' the loudest????

I did spent one day on decorating for Fall--
here is my hutch--

I put some of my Fall cross stitch project in with my Blue dishes for Fall--yesterday I got all my bedding washed up and got the blue coverlet on the bed--

and here the round table with it's Fall display--more cx stitching mostly--!!!


here is 3 of Cracker Barrels salt and pepper Halloween items from last year--haven't gotten there this year--

And here is some Fall on the shelf by me and my sewing rocking chair!!!!

I have worked on a couple more hand stitching pieces--but they are not done --next week hopefully!!

And here is this weeks--funny find--

This poster is up high on a shelf on the city bus--yep--advertising for Valentines day 2027 already!!???
Did someone say we are rushing the time and the holidays????

TIME TO MAKE THOSE 'WISH' LISTS FOR HOLIDAY CRAFTS AND BAKING--AND WE NEED TO KEEP STITCHING AND SENDING LOVE TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS--
HUGS, AND GREAT BLESSINGS TO EACH OF YOU READING THIS POST--DI
AND THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS--
I love chicks who wear glasses!!!!!!

Your roundabout with the orange border is adorable! I like the orange Halloween stitches mixed in with your blue dishes, too. Love that chicks meme - it's perfect to describe good friends! Happy stitching!

You've been busy! The Halloween Roundabout is really cute. How can one not like those kitties. Happy stitching this week. Hopefully you'll see a cold front soon. We are still waiting on our first true cool down too.

So many fun projects! Love the roundabout in orange and black for Halloween! It was down to 70 for the morning walk with Bear today. I can't wait for the cooler temps to happen. Enjoy your week.

Aaw your roundabout is precious, Di. I love the finishing fabrics that you used for your Dresden block. Your Halloween decor is amazing! The blues and oranges are so pretty together. I hope you are having a lovely week. Hugs.
