Yarn 'n Silk

Hey, Friends!

Remember that I was the lucky winner of the gift from Patty of Hanging on by a Thread.  Here’s the lovely project she stitched for me.  I love it, and the way she chose to finish it. The La-D-Da chart also fills an empty spot in my collection.  Thank you so much Patty for your generosity and sharing your talents!

You know I’ve been looking for Midsummer Night Designs, Memorial Sampler.  Thanks to a recommendation by Ranae, it has been ordered.  Thanks so much for keeping an eye out!

Guess what I was at Walmart the other day?  They have brought back the fabric aisle and a few groupings of DMC.  Funny – they had them arranged in plastic drawers by color!

Have you noticed how early fall seems to be coming?  I was so surprised to see the dogwoods with full, red berries the other day. The other morning there was one little blue morning Glory on the trellis.  They always remind me of fall – the beginning of school, waiting on the front porch when I was a girl.  This morning was almost chilly when Pixie and I went out.

I’ve still be stitching on Gobble, until I ran out of one of the Hand-Dyed fibers colors!  I was certain there was enough – or at least a color close enough – but not so.  It’s ordered so should be on the way soon.  In the meantime, I’ve pulled out some pretty cotton/wool/silk yarn called Coconut Shell and started a scarf. 
Yesterday I stopped by a little shop and picked up a new to me type – Manos silk blend.  It really looks like fall, doesn’t it?

Thanks for stopping by, today and always.  I appreciate your thoughts and comments!

I'm grateful for a little chill (not so humid) in the air!
