Like so many of us Wool~Lovers...these hot & humid late Summer days make me yearn for the cool crisp Autumn breezes! Not that I’m wishing my days away...cuz I’m certainly always racing to keep up...
...it’s more of a longing for days gone by...the “feelings” that my favorite season brings.
I love the smell of wood smoke from the fireplace...the sight of the trees a blaze with the changing leaves...the sound of the wind swirling the leaves to the ground...apples...squash and pumpkins...apples...and more apples!!! Oh how I wish it all would last longer...cuz here in the upper Midwest...what follows is soooo long...but that’s another story!
Now that my Fall class schedule is complete and the website temporarily up to date...it’s time to think of more domestic things. The grapes are almost ripe enough to pick, it’s been a good year for them. I hope Mama Raccoon doesn’t beat me to them this year. I don’t mind sharing...but last year she got them all. The jelly cupboard is looking bare!
Hope you are enjoying these lazy (LOL) late summer days! L
I've got Fall Fever. I knew it would sneak up on me when we have days that are unseasonably cool. I've already started my 2nd Fall rug hooking Project with lots of pumpkins. One has to be ready when one lives in the Pumpkin Capital of the world-Morton,IL. Enjoy the Fall days ahead everyone!
ReplyDeleteHi Dawn,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and for taking the time to comment. So, Morton is the Pumpkin Capital? How cool is that!!! Anoka, a northern suburb of Minneapolis has always claimed to be the Halloween Capital of the world...tho' I'm sure other towns claim that too!
When I was a teen, a group of freinds would always go pumkin picking there!
Have fun with your hooking. Hope you got my email reply to your question on pricing! That was you wasn't it?!?!?
Kind Regards, L
I AM READY FOR FALL TOO. OUR SUMMER HAS COME IN BITS AND SPURTS AND HAD MANY DAYS THAT FELT LIKE FALL SO STITCHING PUMPKINS AND SUCH HAS BEEN MUCH EASIER WITH SO MANY GRAY DAYS....
ReplyDeleteYOUR HOOKING IS INSPIRING... I BOUGHT A KIT, A FRAME AND HOOK,,, NOW LET THE FUN BEGIN I HOPE!!((:
Hello Miss Prudence,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping in for a visit, and hope you'll come back soon!
To me Autumn just seems to beckon for some sort of handwork...hooking is so meditative...I hope you enjoy every loop!
