Another rainy day, good day for working on the Fall/Halloween Quilt. I need to pick up sashing and borders.
We are still very green here, because of all the rain, except for the butternut tree in the left corner, naked. But it always looses its leaves early and drops its nuts. The squirrels are so happy!
Raindrops on coleus. One of my favorite plants.
Some really great things are illustrated on other sewing blogs. Here are a few that might interest you.

tomorrow, the choices for the first blouse, the number one pick and the fabric.
Gratuity Moment: during the ill spell I had a lot of time to think about how I, and many I know, have faced life's challenges while continuing our sewing pursuits. The sewing, whether garments, quilting, knitting, crochet, provide a structure that supports the large and small moments of life.
