Downstairs

Yay for a few hours spent downstairs today.

I sat piecing 16 patch blocks and gazed out my window now and then enjoying the lingering autumn colors.

As I cut blocks I thought about how nice it is to have my whiteboard above my sewing table. For years when we were in Tampa I talked about doing it but it wasn’t until we bought the house here at Big Canoe that I actually had Keith hang one. So much nicer to have my project notes right there than on stickie notes!

And after sewing a while, I saw downstairs and worked on my shell stitch afghan while Finn chewed his bone.

And now that Keith and Finn have headed to bed, I’m going to knit a while.

  1. Our leaves are gone now. The color was lovely while it lasted. I won’t miss raking maple leaves, though. Countless wheelbarrow loads up the bank to the garden and burn pile. Your view still has that nice, fall scene. Glad you’re getting around better.

  2. The colors out the window are gorgeous. It reminds me of my desire to learn how to make landscape quilts. I know the afghan is going to be beautiful–great pattern.
    You are a great role model — keep on moving and being productive as you do.
    Admiration!

  3. Wow, the soft colors of those leaves and thin trees outside your window are simply gorgeous! What a view!
    Rejoicing that the radiation burns are healing 🤗
    Your shell stitch, the yarn, and those variegated colors look soft and cuddly.

  4. My idea of a pleasant day. The dry erase board is a good idea. My granddaughter, Aili made the same rainbow 🌈 for me. I also have a strawberry diamond art on my sewing machine now. 🙂
