Is it Fall yet???

Must be, as our temps have cooled way down with beautiful 'Fallish' days this week!
Loving it!!! AC off and windows open!!

Been busy here. Working on a quilt to hang in living room. A peek above.
I was inspired by a quilt I saw online. So decided to make my own version!
So far so good. I only need to put binding on and  then will share a pic of it finished!

I am also quilting my Cotton Boll runner. Can read about  that here.
Need to get it finished as we have a new "old" buffet in dining room to put it on!
Will share that and another antique from DH's grandparents in a later post.
Right now it is all a mess!
I decide to move things around to best accommodate the large buffet.
So ya know that led to this then that...etc!
Will be painting above chair rail too!

Was a fun day Sunday with son, his wife and niece being our helpers!
I sure miss the days if I decided to move stuff around could just do it!
Oh well all is good as we got to spend time with those we adore!

So reckon I need to get back to my chores and then a can of black paint I have waiting on me by hearth!

  1. It's fall here also, Lola, and I'm loving it! I can actually go outside and breathe fresh air without being suffocated. I can't wait to see your finished projects, and I have no idea what a cotton boll is so very curious! Thank God for family huh? There is an upside to every downside isn't there!?

  6. I think that Fall is wanting to show it's face too--cooler here too---just wished 'my' air was fresh smelling!!!( remember that the village sewer plant is in our back yard--and for some reason this past 30 days has been----????)
