I've spent the summer on outdoor activities. Mother bear and her cubs have made regular visits to my yard, which I'm always on the lookout to see if they are around. Other regular visitors include deer, turkeys, a fox, and the usual squirrels, chipmunks, and birds. I enjoy the variety of birds that live/visit in our area - especially the hummingbirds. But now the weather has changed from a quick fall season to winter. It started snowing in my neck of the woods towards the end of October. I'll miss some our seasonal guests, but it's time to head indoors.
As much as I'm missing the warmer weather my sewing space is welcoming me back. It's been almost four months since I was busy working on my sewing projects and it feels great to start sewing again.
The first week of November our quilting group had our annual quilting retreat at WaWaSum. I'm embarrassed to say I'm still working on the same quilt I was working on at the 2018 WaWaSum retreat. Hmmmmm - but I do have to say that I am seeing light at the end of the tunnel. I did double the amount of blocks from the original pattern. My perfect plan is to have it finished and quilted before the end of the year.
Hopefully I'll also have time to quilt a couple other quilts that have been sitting with my UFOs. It would be great to start the new year without anymore carryover, but unfortunately life happens and I still have some catching up to do.
So enough chatting and time for me to get sewing.
