A few little tidbits.

We finally have beautiful rain, washing all the dust and dirt away.
Nancy was making this quilt. At the end of summer.
 It is bright and scrappy.
 Spot the cats.
She entered it into the Fair and won a 1st Place Ribbon.
Thanksgiving was on monday, here in Canada.  At the farmers market on the weekend we discovered these tiny ornamental pumpkins on a stick.  Have never encountered these before. All the trees are covered in autumn coloured leaves.  A sure sign the seasons are changing.
Diane 2018 Stitch-a-long:
 These are in celebration of breast cancer awareness month, in many parts of the world.
 Mermaids!
Her 2017 Stitch-a-long.

This one up to November.
Out west, on an unexpected trip the past month.  Took LE along and appliqued some leaves.
The weather was remarkable.
 We met this little fella on the path, he was about the size of a large walnut.
 Saw this pair of bald eagles high up in the tree.
Just a sunny afternoon, relaxing in the sun.

  1. Lovely blog Maggie, my goodness those samplers are beautiful.Lovely to see your country you have just visited its very beautiful. We have a native wee creature just like that sweet furry creature, not at all shy which is sad as many new people to the area think they are rats and kill them. Would love to have those wee pumpkins hanging in my kitchen?
