Campfires

During my nail appointment yesterday, all the girls were talking about autumn and how this summer has been such a hot one; we're ready for fall-like things. Like campfires, the crunch of leaves, the smell of the rain, cozy socks and leggings, boots, and sweatshirts. 

Oddly, Kathy texted last night that she was having a campfire down at the "beach" and asked to join. We spent a few hours down there, but Mike wasn't feeling all that great, so we called it a night even before 11:00. 

Here is what is next up on DW since I finished Sue L.'s quilt last night...

Linda's Dinosaur top

This is getting an edge to edge and I'll be working on starting it this morning. I had to cut Jim's hair first and get some chores done around the house. Now that all those are finished I can head into the studio to see what kind of mischief I can get into. 

Oh, I had to run to Pieces yesterday to pick up a pinching cutter for thread. It didn't solve my problem, but why I was there, picked up this kit to work on during my Shipshewana retreat...

A cute Raven kit

Alaska has a LOT of Ravens and thought this would be easy and fun to work on to commemorate (one of two I'm planning on making) our Alaska trip. They have kits on sale over there and took advantage. P.S. My ear is still plugged.
