When I was in high school and college there was a certain excitement in the air with getting back into a routine and new classes and old friends. I felt that anything was possible when there was a little chill in the evenings and pumpkins on the porch.
September still gives me that "new beginnings" feeling. It's also my time to think that I can do about 20 things at a time and age has only slightly wised me up on that score. Right this moment there are pickling cucumbers soaking in brine in the kitchen, the laundry room smells like the big bunch of dill waiting for me there, my tomatoes are ripening up so that most will be ready at the same time and I have more quilting projects in my head than I can possibly finish. And just last week I was afraid I might run out of quilting ideas!
Apparently last spring I was afraid I would run out of tomatoes. Fabulous tomato weather this summer has given me more than I would ever have thought.
The new website is almost ready to launch.
We're about to be off and flying and we're really excited. This blog will be available there (as well as here) and we'll be adding a monthly newsletter. When you sign up on our emailing list, we'll email you the pattern for these two postcards.
Some days just require a small project that can be started and finished in a hurry.
We're also featuring this pattern on sale for a limited time.
In the relax and laugh segment, check out Ella's cheesy smile.
This is the face that says, "The pill you just gave me is sitting on the back of my tongue. Whoever said it was chewable has no tastebuds. I will keep smiling like this until you turn your back and then I will spit this baby out. Am I not adorable?"
Quilt for Fun,
Candy
