Winter Trees at Sunset Thread Sketch

Last night my sweetie and I sat outside by a fire and watched the October Orange sunset.
The colors looked like they reflected off our fire.
Winter Trees at Sunset is 8"X8".

Mermaid thread sketch

I finally did get to stitch! It is so nice to have a Saturday morning.

I feel like a fabric art junkie that got her fix this morning.

My son's girlfriend found a picture of a siren on line and I simplified it into a line drawing, added a sparrow in her hand... and stitched it in thread for her.


I'd love to stay and stitch some more... but I think this is the first and last weekend for me to pick the Roma tomatoes and process them into jam...
While I'm posting though....

I'll share more pictures... I got to take the girls for a ride yesterday.

...and my sweetie is cleaning up before the snow hits. He moves everything out of the shop and then cleans and moves everything back in the shop.... The above wheeled items are not commonly used, so they got to see a little sunshine!

And check out the size of these onions!

Happy Weekend Everyone!

5th Weekend

I have NOT been stitching. I called this post 5th Weekend because this past weekend was the 5th weekend of go go go. 4 of them camping and 1 of them was the fish fry.
(Which by the way was terrific).
The above picture was taken in Wyoming on the way to Mom's.

This was some of her beautiful cone-flowers... still blooming!

And this.... is the very photogenic and curious pups.
Whiskey was checking out the bird bath.
