Beautiful Fall Day and a Project

It was a beautiful Fall weekend with temperatures in the low 70's both days. It was the perfect weekend to work outside. The leaves are almost all off the trees, so there was a lot of leaf clean up going on. I also cleaned up some of my flower beds. I leave some over winter for the birds and other wildlife but clean up some so that it isn't so much work in the Spring. I just don't have the energy I used to, so do what I can when I have some ambition. Usually my weekends off are cruddy so this was a welcome change.


I've also been working on this project for a while now and finally finished the top. It will become a pillow. The pattern was a freebie from Primitive Gatherings Quilt shop during their Christmas open house last year. Every year they have a wonderful open house at the shop and give away free patterns when you spend a certain amount. I'm looking forward to seeing what will be offered this year. 


 This year is flying by and soon the weather will turn colder. I am not looking forward to the cold and snow but am looking forward to being indoors more and working on some of my projects. I just don't seem to get much done when the outdoors is calling. Have a wonderful week!

Little Getaway

Hubby and I spent a few days in the North woods of Wisconsin enjoying the colors of Fall. It was a nice little getaway for both of us. We get away so little-always working or working on the house and decided it was time to get away and do nothing. We stayed at a little cabin tucked in the woods with a river close by. Spent our days just driving around and enjoying the beautiful fall colors.

Alas, it ended too soon and we go back to work tomorrow but it was nice while it lasted. It will probably be the last time for a while. We made some nice memories.

Have a wonderful week~Becky
